Hi. I want to install Harmonoid on my machine. Has anyone managed to install this on Bazzite? And if so, how? According to the website, "You also need mpv & libmpv-dev installed". I'm curious about that, as I have no idea how to go about this.

It comes as an RPM. Just download it, cd into the directory where it's stored, then rpm-ostree install ./harmonioid-package-name.rpm

That's called layering. You would use the same command to search for and install other packages in the dnf repos: rpm-ostree search mpv then rpm-ostree install package-1 package-2 (whatever they're called)

I'll try this when I get home. Thanks!

The way I described it above will require at least two restarts, unfortunately, so be prepared to wait (layering is safe but as slow as getting a new system update).

You might be able to chain the local file with the dependencies in the repos, like rpm-ostree install dep1 dep2 /path/to/your/file.rpm to save a restart and only create the one new rollback state in the boot menu.
