"add to library" file selector does not update about darktable HOT 7 CLOSED

It may be related to fc39, I have the same problem, its works sometimes if we keep trying, then the check boxes and menus from style or copy history are also not working very often, drives me crazy. I use darktable 4.5.0+1439~g88819c341e, updated fc39, and recompiled dt today.

looks like selection in a list work , but focus is lost as soon as there is a checkbox
this concern add to lib, selective copy, create style.
Checkboxes in preferences work well

Took quite a while for me to figure out, this is not a darktable bug
if I use gnome over Xorg, darktable works

@ClaudeMercier do we have any ideas where the bug is that we can follow up? Seems worth some upstream followup to address non-working state in the default fc39 install.

@chaseadam , I really dont know, spent 3 full days to figure out why darktable was crazy.
I believe fc39 has a few bugs, emacs was fixed for me today with some mesaxxx package updates.
I will try again gnome not on Xorg from time to time.
Could not see anyone complaining about gnome except us!

it would be advisable to stick with X as wayland is still not optimal for photo processing, not color managed and most dt experiences are with X.

good to know, thanks
