Omarchy

ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirements

A proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

Original report

Changing default text editor in omarchy menu does not update mimeapps.listrevision 1 · captured 2026-09-28 21:29 UTC via poll

System details

Omarchy 4.0.0

What's wrong?

Summary

Changing the default text editor via omarchy menu does not update the corresponding MIME associations in mimeapps.list (/usr/share/omarchy/default/applications/mimeapps.list). As a result, file managers and system handlers continue to open text files with hardcoded nvim.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open omarchy menu with SUPER + SPACE
  2. Change the default text editor to a different application.
  3. Inspect /usr/share/omarchy/applications/mimeapps.list

Expected Behavior

Updating the default editor should write the new default handler into /usr/share/omarchy/applications/mimeapps.list.

Actual Behavior

mimeapps.list remains unchanged with the previous editor entry, ignoring the newly selected default.
