worldofpeace I think we should not set the GTK prefixes at all in the environment
<jtojnar>
then it will use the GTK_PATH and fall back to the compiled prefix
<jtojnar>
we only need to use it for gtk2 themes IIRC
<jtojnar>
but I would rather patch gtk2 to support GTK_PATH

ah ok, so just unset GTK_EXE_PREFIX and GTK_DATA_PREFIX? I do believe to fix elementary's greeter proper I needed a global GTK_DATA_PREFIX
<worldofpeace>
we could patch gtk2 or maybe just add hook to gtk2 for wrapping

worldofpeace I am afraid a hook could contaminate GTK 3 apps
<jtojnar>
GTK_PATH patch will be the cleanest and most reliable solution

<jtojnar>
and yes, removing the prefixe from nixos/modules/programs/environment.nix in the meanwhile
<worldofpeace>
if only we could say goodbye to gtk2 already
<worldofpeace>
Jan Tojnar: which function needed patching to use GTK_PATH in gtk2?
<jtojnar>
worldofpeace I would just grep for GTK_DATA_PREFIX
<jtojnar>
I believe it was somewhere around gtkrc
<worldofpeace>
yep found it Jan Tojnar

Jan Tojnar: "but I would rather patch gtk2 to support GTK_PATH" did you mean XDG_DATA_DIRS for gtk_rc_get_theme_dir?
<Profpatsch>
worldofpeace: idk if jtojnar’s client highlights his full name, usually that’s not the case
<worldofpeace>
Profpatsch: I believe we're both using matrix, and I don't think the bridge converts matrix names to irc nicks.
<worldofpeace>
reading the logs, it does look like I address them by full name always :D which I admit looks weird
<Profpatsch>
Ah, I see

worldofpeace Fractal does notify me, it's just that the notification seems to go straight to the notification center, I do not get the on screen notification for some reason
<worldofpeace>
hm, then I guess it doesn't. Guess I won't be using autocomplete anymore jtojnar
<jtojnar>
worldofpeace I think it would have to be patched at the use site gtk_rc_parse_named
<jtojnar>
worldofpeace
<jtojnar>
actually the nickname does not seem to notify me, or at least Fractal does not highlight it in blue
<jtojnar>
or maybe it was because I had the window active?
