Hi,
After finding a nice community-made wallpaper for Archlabs I noticed that the default gray color scheme doesn’t really fit my new wallpaper so I did what I’ve always done with my Arch installs which is using the python-pywal package to quickly set the color scheme.
The color scheme gets applied succesfully but Compton refused to work.
My windows quickly flash but nothing happens when I try to run Compton.
A text capture from terminal what happens if I try to run Compton:

Anyone know how could I solve this issue and make them both work together?
