Arch Linux User Repository

Just got this error after installing:

( 2/10) installing fx_cast                                                                                        [--------------------------------------------------------------------] 100%
/tmp/alpm_giGkj0/.INSTALL: line 5: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
/usr/bin/bash: line 1: post_install: command not found
error: command failed to execute correctly

Probably due to https://gitlab.archlinux.org/pacman/pacman/-/issues/119

Try adding !debug as well

The reason the bridge isn't working is due to the fx_cast_bridge binary getting stripped, for some reason options=('!strip') isn't being honored, or the behavior has changed.

this does not work. bridge not found

The post install script exits with an error. Seems to be because of a missing quotation mark in the second line of post_install().

I made a pull request to the upstream, https://github.com/hensm/fx_cast/pull/161 , which removes the dependency on avahi. This is working well for me.

I remove the $srcdir reference in /usr/lib/fx_cast/fx_cast_bridge.sh by appending the following line to build() in PKGBUILD of version 0.1.0:

sed -i "s#${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}/app#/usr/lib/fx_cast#;s# node # exec node #" dist/app/fx_cast_bridge.sh

This also fixes an issue that the bridge process does not terminate when Firefox is shut down.

@yochananmarqos, with your PKGBUILD, I got an error:

Working PKGBUILD with numerous fixes and proper file paths.

@314eter: Did you read the comments below mine? Obviously people are having issues with it. Also folks are reporting issues upstream, see this issue for example.

Is it a problem to keep the version like this until the next release?
