I know I should probably report that to fastfetch, but I just don’t feel like 
Just wanted to let you people know that what worked in fastfetch for more than a year fails in version 2.65.1-1.1.
This config.jsonc snippet:
{
"type": "packages",
"key": "{#90}│ {#91}Packages {#90}│",
"format": "{$1}{1}"
},
displayed this until yesterday:
│ Packages ││ 1467 │
but now it says:
│ Packages ││ 0 │
If I remove the format, the correct number shows again, but I lose my beloved formatting:
│ Packages │1467 (pacman)
Not a real dealbreaker, just a sad little nuisance.
If anyone has an idea, let me know. LLMs were not helpful there.
The complete config looks like this:
