[SOLUTION] all hail hexchat, hexchat is dead, remove unmaintained hexchat
this happens on debian 13.1 xfce
after installing io.github.Hexchat I get this message on the terminal:
Info: runtime org.freedesktop.Platform branch 23.08 is end-of-life, with reason: org.freedesktop.Platform 23.08 is no longer receiving fixes and security updates. Please update to a supported runtime version. Info: applications using this runtime: io.github.Hexchat
the message applies to the following runtimes as well:
org.freedesktop.Platform.VAAPI.Intel branch 23.08
org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default branch 23.08-extra
org.freedesktop.Platform.GL.default
if I remove them manually and I update flatpak, it asks me to install them again
My computer uses both system and user remotes.
Because my .var directory is almost full, I installed hexchat as user, but the drivers are systemwide. I don’t know if this is relevant.
Wait is hexchat really dead? Didn’t it replace xchat? So what’s the go to irc client now?
Yes, the repository has been archived. https://github.com/hexchat/hexchat
