@evine can you remove the v prefix again, but this time increase the epoch: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#epoch

Gilrain commented on 2025-01-13 10:15 (UTC)

Hi, Could you drop the v prefix in pkgver? Even though there are no official guidelines preventing it, it's simply not used. And it breaks a lot of automated build scripts…

ruahcra commented on 2025-01-06 12:50 (UTC)

Thanks for the suggestion @evine . I have not come across that method before. Added as co-maintainer

@ruahcra If possible, could you add me as a collaborative maintainer？

The following PKGBUILD can reuse the system's nodejs, significantly reducing package size.

FYI I find that when running with the supplied systemd unit, it fails with the below error unless I create /usr/share/audiobookshelf and chown it to the audiobookshelf user. I haven't been able to figure out if it is a packaging bug or upstream bug. Help would be appreciated.

Good call C0rn3j, after another system update all is working now. :)

C0rn3j commented on 2024-07-20 08:14 (UTC) (edited on 2024-07-20 08:14 (UTC) by C0rn3j)

Builds fine here both on my server and in a clean chroot, maybe it was a transient issue of npm?

@ruahcra could you please swap md5 for something more modern? sha256 is fine

EnragedN3wb commented on 2024-07-20 06:31 (UTC)

Ah ok, thanks for confirmation it's not just me! Can be hard to tell sometimes when your new. :P

ruahcra commented on 2024-07-20 01:35 (UTC)

It's broken for me as well. Haven't been able to figure it out yet otherwise would push a fix.

So I'm rather new to Linux, but every problem I've had so far I've been able to solve except installing this. It goes fine up until it hits

"npm warn deprecated @npmcli/move-file@1.1.2: This functionality has been moved to @npmcli/fs"

which seems normal from other people's installs, but then it just seems to sit there forever. If I could get an error or see what exactly it was doing maybe I could figure it out, but unlike most things so far this just gives me a spinning indicator in the terminal so I have no idea what to do & would really appreciate if someone could nudge me in the right direction if they have encountered this before!

I'm using CachyOS with KDE plasma if that helps.
