how to run GUI with out the flatpak

[zany130]

flatpak is currently not working so I wanted to try running the GUI from the terminal so I did the following

1. git clone https://github.com/quexten/goldwarden.git
2. cd goldwarden/gui
3. since there is no arch package for python-tendo I ran python -m venv /home/zany130/.local/pip/venvs/goldwarden (this creates a container to install python libraries this is needed because pip is disabled on arch)
4. /home/zany130/.local/pip/venvs/goldwarden/bin/pip install tendo to install tendo (install -r python3-requirements.json gives ERROR: Invalid requirement: '{' (from line 1 of python3-requirements.json)
5. /home/zany130/.local/pip/venvs/goldwarden/bin/python goldwarden_ui_main.py to run the GUI but it fails with

Traceback (most recent call last):

The reason I only package Flatpak is because the environment is controlled. Going through all dependencies on all platforms and DE's is kind of a pain ;)

If you want to run it locally, you need to get whatever is required for GTK4 apps. This is not in the requirements, because the Gnome flatpak runtime provides this. maybe this helps: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/gtk4/

Yeah, I have that, as even though I use KDE, I do use some gnome apps like gnome-firmware and gnome-disks so I should have all the gtk4 dep. no idea what dependencies would be needed, but since the flatpack is working for me again, I'm not too bothered, lol. If I ever do find whats needed, Ill post here
