Please stop flagging package as out-of-date until there is stable version, not alpha, beta, RC or whatever.

Hello, install this PKGBUILD to get rid of python2-apsw package: https://pastebin.com/raw/5C6iEFKz

Download the snapshot, delete .SRCINFO and the replace the content of PKGBUILD with the one copied from the link above.

This simply extracts the specific library from the Ubuntu package and move it inside the Acestream lib folder to make it available to the engine. Then you can uninstall python2-apsw. Tested it, it's working.

I choose the Ubuntu package because in theory it should be hosted on launchpad more time than the Arch archive. This could be done also with setuptool, but it's more tricky and not really needed at the moment since lots of packages requires it and should not be deleted from upstream. I don't mind about pygtk and libappindicator, they're optional.

Fell free to adopt the package and update it, the maintainer was banned and can't do it.

@jsonP I have created a python2-apsw AUR package. It should be ok now.

For everyone with an error "ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!". Download snapshot of the package (top right corner of this page), unarchive it and use $makepkg in the folder with the PKGBUILD file. It will download the pkg.tar.xz file that you can install by double left clicking.

PKGBUILD is no longer valid. python2-apsw dependency has been phased out in favor of the python 3 version.

So it has begun: python2-apsw was dropped from repos. And it looks like developers don't want to port to Python3.

Had issues with the source link, managed to download the binary via this link:

http://dl.acestream.org/linux/acestream_${pkgver}_ubuntu_${_ubuntuver}_x86_64.tar.gz

@quark Yes I managed to do it by downloading the acestream_3.1.49_ubuntu_18.04_x86_64.tar.gz and then moving contents to our current package(since it was showing "start-engine" not found). Then makepkg install with --skipchecksums and that did the work. Thanks for the help

@preetam286 Hi, it looks like you have same issue as @hackins. Can you find acestream_3.1.49_ubuntu_18.04_x86_64.tar.gz in your AUR manager's cache or download http://acestream.org/downloads/linux/acestream_3.1.49_ubuntu_18.04_x86_64.tar.gz using curl or wget? It's size should be 17001150 bytes.

Hi, I am using manjaro KDE and downloading this package from AUR manager. It always gives me this error:

==> Checking runtime dependencies... ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> Retrieving sources... -> Found acestream-engine-stable-3.1.49.tar.gz -> Found acestream-engine.service -> Found acestream-engine.desktop -> Found LICENSE ==> Validating source files with sha256sums... acestream-engine-stable-3.1.49.tar.gz ...

@egrupled Did it.
