OS: Manjaro Linux Installation: pamac build hyper I have seen other issues, but these seem to be because of Windows WSL limitations where I’m using Konsole on Manjaro KDE.

It also opens a new hyper window, which doesn’t do anything, but if I close it then the original window finally goes back to prompt, so must be expecting something from it…

It stops any themes from being installed and used. I’d say that’s an issue.
