[wary sorrel]

I used bazaar so flathub, i cant send logs everytime i try the message just doesnt send idk

oh there we go

[obtuse lodge]

more importantly, how did you install node

[wary sorrel]

i did that with brew

[obtuse lodge]

then you need to symlink it to somewhere in the normal PATH, like /usr/bin/node

[stuck thunder]

Would it be enought to add the brew directory to PATH?

[wary sorrel]

yeah i tried that (i think) added export PATH=$PATH:/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew to ~/.bashrc removed now tho cause it didnt work

so i do ls -s /var/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/Cellar/node/ /usr/bin/node?

no bazzite doesnt let me do anything to that /usr/bin/ thing

[obtuse lodge]

you need to use sudo

and it's ln -s not ls -s

alternatively, install OpenDeck in a Distrobox, instructions here https://discord.com/channels/1143819637897834571/1440478937774948382

The solution is to sudo rpm-ostree install nodejs npm or to run the installation script again which does that now
