override this file prompt issue about clifm HOT 8 CLOSED

Hi @danrobi11. Let me take a look at it. I'll let you know.
Thanks for the report.

from clifm.

Great. This bug was fixed a few days after 1.1 was released (96c680c). You have two options here: you either wait for 1.2 release (a couple of weeks at most), or you compile from source and install the latest (development) version. It's not that hard really:

First, uninstall the current version:

sudo apt remove clifm

And then:

mkdir build && cd build
git clone https://github.com/leo-arch/clifm
cd clifm
sudo make PREFIX=/usr install

That's it.

If you prefer to wait, you can meanwhile just use the command instead of the keyboard shortcut:

s17 and c sel

Ya I'll do that because I have an error while compiling.

install: cannot stat 'misc/{mimelist.cfm,keybindings.cfm,clifmrc,actions.cfm}': No such file or directory
make: *** [Makefile:51: install] Error 1

@leo-arch Thanks again for the support. Closing.

Its working as intended here now. Weird.

Yes, regardless the failure, the source files were compiled and the binary copied to /usr/bin. Some files nonetheless were not copied (plugins thus won't work). You were right indeed: the Makefile was failing.

Fixed now. You can repeat the process (delete the clifm directory first), and everything should work fine.

@leo-arch Compiled ok, working perfectly :)

How are you exactly trying to copy the file? Are you using the keybind (Ctrl-Alt-v) or just a command (and in this latter case, which command)?

s 17 and C-M v

Tested with the xfce4-terminal and same result.

Well, reguardless the compile issue. Seems like the binary compiled in /usr/bin
