Trouble-Shooting

• zsh compinit: insecure directories, run compaudit for list, run :

compaudit | xargs chmod g-w

• If you get node issue, install neovim via npm

npm install -g neovim

• If you get python issue, install pynvim via pip

$(which python3) -m pip install pynvim

• Update csharp_ls time to time

dotnet tool update -g csharp-ls

• If you get FNM Error 13 permission denied

sudo chown -R $(whoami) /run/user/1000/

• If you get "Cannot request projects v2, missing scope 'read:project'" message, it means the gh credential does not have read:project auth. Run this command:

gh auth refresh -s read:project

• WSL Clipboards

choco install win32yank

• Linux Clipboards

sudo pacman -S xsel

• For WSL windows, when you get no such file or directory: /usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions/_docker error, run:

# Remove symlink
sudo rm -rf /usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions/_docker
#copy over wsl completions
sudo cp /mnt/wsl/docker-desktop/cli-tools/usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions/_docker /usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions/
#make it non-writable
sudo chattr +i /usr/share/zsh/vendor-completions/_docker
