regression on 0.14.x? about rfd HOT 5 CLOSED

Thanks.
I'll test zenity and let you know.

from rfd.

xdg-portal is the default in 0.14, gtk backend will be removed, as it's a horible unsafe and broken mess. Perhaps try to install zenity if such a thing exists on bsd. RFD will try to call zenity whenever the portal is not avalible or broken.

from rfd.

We do have zenity, albeit at v3.41

When is the gtk backend removal planned?

@PolyMeilex Ok, let's close this for now, I've temporarily fixed the issue with simp applying the following patch:

$NetBSD: patch-Cargo.toml,v 1.1 2024/06/11 08:36:49 pin Exp $

RFD crate changed the default features from Gtk to xdg-desktop-portal.
This breaks functionality on NetBSD. Restore the Gtk feature for now.

I would still appreciate any info as of when you intend to fully drop Gtk support, This gives us time to work on xdg-desktop-portal package and hopefully be able to support that,
Thanks!

As long as you have zenity on the system, xdg-portal build should fallback to it, if it does not, please oppen an issue.

Not sure, it's existence does not cause much burden for now, so there is no concreate date.
