This AUR package is a mirror and automatically updated from the proaudio binary repo project at https://github.com/osam-cologne/archlinux-proaudio

If possible, open a GitHub issue or PR instead of commenting here, thanks!

@all Heads up: I've updated the package to 1.4 and made the following changes:

  • Changed source to source distribution archive from https://github.com/rafael2k/darkice, i.e. the software is not built from a git checkout anymore.
  • Removed aacplus support, since the license status of libaacplus is problematic.

N.B.: Upstream version 1.4 is not listed on the project's web site, but it is tagged in their git repository (see https://github.com/rafael2k/darkice/issues/157).

GCC 11 broke compilation because it changed the default C ++ version from C ++ 14 to C ++ 17, this patch fixes it:

It's also necessary to notify upstream to fix the error.

(Sorry for my bad English)

@SpotlightKid: I've disowned the package. Have at it, and thank you!

SpotlightKid commented on 2020-04-16 17:57 (UTC)

@Refutationalist: I've now tested my updated package on a several computers, including a Raspi 4 and it seems to work fine.

Can you add me as co-maintainer or orphan the package then I'll take over and update it?

SpotlightKid commented on 2020-04-08 17:47 (UTC)

@Refutationalist: Thanks for the offer. Let me test my package update on few more systems (e.g. a Raspi 3 and 4), before I commit to taking maintainership. I'll get back to you.

Refutationalist commented on 2020-04-08 17:00 (UTC)

@SpotlightKid -- Reasons. They're in here somewhere. Package tracked release until there were some problems with release. I've been checking the website for a new release now and again.

Would you like to take over the package? I stopped using darkice some time ago in favor of other methods.

SpotlightKid commented on 2020-04-08 14:04 (UTC)

May I ask, why this package is not using the official upstream repository (https://github.com/rafael2k/darkice) and builds from a git checkout rather than from a source distribution archive?

The repo used in this PKGBUILD is outdated, the official repo has a more recent release 1.4 (unfortunately the website hasn't been updated to show this release).

Furthermore, I would suggest to drop the inclusion of HE-AAC+ support via libaacplus. That package downloads additional patented code from 3gpp.org during the build process (!) and as such, IMO, is not suitable for distribution.

To sum it up, I suggest the following changes:

I had been fighting the issue on 2 arm devices (raspberry pi3b+ & odroid-xu4) trying to start the service and finally tried it on my desktop and it worked just fine. I have no clue so far why the service will not start on my arm devices. The only way so far is to manually start darkice from a terminal after logging into the desktop. The service still not start even after logging in to the desktop in a terminal. I have the latest arch installed on my desktop and arm devices.

Refutationalist commented on 2018-12-29 04:35 (UTC)

Create a config file with a unique name in /etc/darkice that ends in cfg and then use that name.

For example if you have a stream called "stream128", you'd create "/etc/darkice/stream128.cfg" and then issue "systemctl start darkice@stream128".
