Release out now to handle autofix
I just spent about half an hour reading through Github issues and source code of VSCode & VSCodium to figure out how to get Pylance working. In short:
```%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\VSCodium\resources\app\product.json```
- The workaround described [here](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/issues/892#issuecomment-986663776) suggests editing a `product.json` file, but `find $HOME/.var/app/com.vscodium.codium -name 'product.json'` returns nothing
- Found [product.json should be editable #22](https://github.com/flathub/com.vscodium.codium/issues/22) which links to [customize the extensions gallery VSCodium/vscodium#674](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/pull/674)
- The linked PR contains a [patch](https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/blob/3277bd4fa19f262fa1d1a1fb916b4d6d9e0bd134/patches/custom-gallery.patch#L35) which looks for a user-provided `product.json` *to merge into* the compiled-in values - by default, no `product.json` is included in shipped builds
- Dropping the following file into `$HOME/.var/app/com.vscodium.codium/config/VSCodium/product.json` lets me run Pylance:
```
{
"nameShort": "Visual Studio Code",
"nameLong": "Visual Studio Code",
"extensionsGallery": {
"serviceUrl": "https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/_apis/public/gallery",
"cacheUrl": "https://vscode.blob.core.windows.net/gallery/index",
"itemUrl": "https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items"
}
}
```
As this is a rather specific workaround to a specific problem, perhaps just including a note somewhere is enough to spare others from having to go through the same journey.
