08:03:47 <br-m> <ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> "Just installed Monero GUI on my Fedora linux desktop, but when I get to the naming the wallet screen, the Next button is grayed out... "
08:03:47 <br-m> <ofrnxmr:xmr.mx> ive seen 2 reportsof this on 1851, the first user fixed by switch to 1850
08:55:00 <selsta> we added a check for if dir is writable
08:55:12 <selsta> maybe it has some side effects on some systems?
08:56:29 <selsta> ohh is it maybe flatpak?
08:57:57 <selsta> ofrnxmr could you ask for more details?

09:08:46 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> walletname does call verify here yes selsta? https://github.com/plowsof/monero-gui/blob/123433dd2caf7f5899c760e172dffb68df3375a7/wizard/WizardWalletInput.qml#L174
09:11:16 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> not the correct location^ this is the save path, not the file name, i assume there still is a verify function for it
09:20:36 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> renaming the ~/Monero folder to Monero-tmp - but on my install i still see the box for wallet location
09:21:04 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> https://mrelay.p2pool.observer/m/matrix.org/RmcIYDEOioTpSuKDIpdCECYZ.png (Screenshot from 2026-07-16 10-20-50.png)
09:21:25 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> note that the screenshot from fedora does not contain the "Wallet location" item which displays the error 
09:25:43 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> the work around for fedora users (if not using flatpak?) would be to pre-create this Monero/wallets folder in home dir - it looks like a visual bug hiding it 
09:26:22 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> but 'why' now?
09:30:40 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> or gui pre-generates the default folder earlier which would be correct* ignoring the visual for now 
09:31:49 <br-m> <plowsof:matrix.org> or remove the 'exists' check on the verify? if its writeable then it will be created eventually
09:33:50 <plowsof> selsta solved it: simple mode does not display the wallet dir -> fresh install does not have the Monero/wallets folder - no visual bug in fedor

16:53:01 <selsta> these are all now relevant for the release
16:53:09 <tobtoht> no cli release?
16:53:11 <selsta> (some still need a review)
16:53:48 <selsta> tobtoht: no there is a bug in the GUI where a monero-gui first time user can't create a wallet because it checks for writable on a non existing folder :/
16:54:04 <tobtoht> oof ok
16:54:06 <selsta> we already had the folder during testing / review so didn't caught it
16:54:18 <selsta> catch
16:55:01 <selsta> the new QML test system hopefully reduces such regressions in the future, at least for the wizard
16:57:51 <tobtoht> i think that was all
16:58:16 <tobtoht> thanks reviewers
16:58:28 <selsta> thank you will wait a bit for CI to pass and then ask for a tag
17:08:06 <plowsof> 👍
17:08:37 <plowsof> also simple mode does not display the dir picker, fixed now (and thus hides the error message they would have seen)
17:09:20 <plowsof> the QML test wizard caught it, very nice
19:58:24 <selsta> luigi1111: please tag v0.18.5.2 gui (only gui this time, now cli)
22:55:47 <luigi1111> Okay
