Re: fslint and czkawka seem not to work with zfs volumes

Following Alex' tip, I tried
https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka/releases/download/5.1.0/linux_czkawk_gui_alternative.AppImage

I added x permissions, put in ~/bin/ and launched in a previously troublesome directory using
 linux_czk[tab] ./

and it works.

Probably I can clean up the invocation. However, it looks like the issue was one of snap or
flatpak which I had tried before. Does not appear to be in the debian repo for Linux Mint.
Nor is fslint any more.

Also managed to compile latest version in Rust (after I learned how to update rust etc. Never
just 1st try!). And this version is fine too. So there seems to be some nonsense with flatpak
and snap versions.

I'll have to look for a workable fslint that isn't a snap -- it has a few features that czkawka
does not.

Cheers, JN

Dedup software fslint and czkawka are quite useful in eliminating big duplicates within a collection.

However, when I apply them to a directory in a zfs volume, the path is changed to /var/lib/snapd/void
and I cannot seem to specify manually.

Any suggestions?
