🐛 Known Bugs

Gnome Shell theme is not generating:

1. Power off your computer (like full shutdown, not restart).
2. Turn it back on and try again.
3. If it still doesn't generate:
   1. Go into Flatseal and find Rewaita's page
   2. Scroll down to filesystem permissions (you should see ~/.local/share/themes among "other files")
   3. Change ~/.local/share/themes to: ~/.local/share/themes:create (just append ":create")
   4. If it still doesn't work file an issue.

Application window opens but is empty:

1. Flatpak

Run:

rm ~/.var/app/io.github.swordpuffin.rewaita/data/prefs.json

2. AUR

See upstream bug

Install xdg-desktop-portal-gtk with:

sudo pacman -S xdg-desktop-portal-gtk
