Maintainer here. Sorry for the delay in answers, I am currently not using the software actively.

@zertyz I have merged @ulyssesrr's fix for the missing $JFX_ARGS after confirming it works on my machine too, so at least 3.2.3240 should install correctly.

Unfortunately it looks like that the software's author has changed the method of delivering updates, and currently I have no time to update the script to the new method. If anyone is interested in helping with this I am glad to merge their changes/add them as co-maintainer if they can be more active with updates.

@mynacol I'd like to, but what stops me from going to Java 15 or later is that the app as it currently stands needs to have $JAVA_HOME/lib passed in the module path, along with the JavaFX module names. But passing the aforementioned path in the module path and attempting to run results in a LayerInstantiationError, which I found that it's caused due to passing $JAVA_HOME/lib in the first place. If you can help with this, I'm happy to do the necessary changes.

Thanks, @lightspot21 for the patch supporting the new version. Before updating, please consider changing the java dependencies to more generic ones. According to the official website, Java Runtime 11+ is needed. So no hard dependency on java 11. In summary you could change: jre11-openjdk -> java-runtime>=11 java-openjfx=11 -> java-openjfx>=11

Could you please do it, I don't use this software. Maybe I should orphan it, but I want to keep it in shape for others. Now this change is beyond my knowledge, so if you don't mind I added you as a co-maintainer.

@SanskritFritz Hello, this package is now out of date, latest version is 3.0.3000 as of this comment. In the meantime, I have updated the PKGBUILD to include proper dependencies.

Please apply this patch: https://gist.github.com/lightspot21/804e9fde09b46e8653ce1aa4ae67187c

@founderio Thank you, great contribution!

Hi, this package uses a hardcoded icon path - which prevents icon themes from replacing the icon with a themed variant.

Please apply this patch to fix that: https://gist.github.com/founderio/120eea6f29cb28cff160121c2acd3263

OK, https://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/latest/ar01s07.html says

"Field codes must not be used inside a quoted argument, the result of field code expansion inside a quoted argument is undefined."

So I'll remove the quotes now.

Can't launch the program from gnome shell.

Changing in the .desktop file from Exec=/opt/ganttproject/ganttproject "%F" to Exec=/opt/ganttproject/ganttproject %F works for me.

Looking at the desktop specification the " seem unnecessary, but I might be wrong.

Minor point, when editing /opt/ganttproject/ganttproject as suggested, do not include the double quote in front of sh...:

sh -c "$JAVA_COMMAND $JAVA_ARGS $@"
