So I’ve recently made the move and switched from DEs like GNOME or KDE to hyprland. It seems to work great, but every time I initially launch it, I see the error / warning: you have one or more incomparable xdg-desktop-portal-impls installed please remove incomparable ones to avoid issues. I’ve looked online a bunch, but I’ve only found posts offering solutions specifically for arch linux, and I am on Fedora. I understand that I have some duplicate implementations of portals (?), but I don’t feel comfortable to just yoink random packages. Obviously, I would be happy if I get the solution for fedora, but optimally I would like a solution, that would let me figure out the redundant / incompatible package myself next time, not matter the distribution.

I hope it’s okay to ask questions like this here :)

Here is the output of sudo dnf list | grep portal if that helps:

    Okay, I uninstalled the gnome portal, which meant I had to uninstall gnome-shell, which lead to GMD crashing (that I was apparently using lol), which was scary at first, but I was able to start Hyperland from a TTY without issue, and don’t receive an error anymore, thanks!

      Awesome! Glad it worked out
