Hi gnlrdrvo, thank you for your suggestions, i appreciate your input. I will take this into account once there is a new upstream release, as to not trigger rebuilds for all users right now. Best regards, bronko

Some issues in PKGBUILD:

  • pkgrel should start from 1
  • patch should not be included in makedepends array - it is a dependency of base-devel and is assumed to be already installed
  • patch.diff can probably be replaced by a sed command
  • package() section can be simplified by using install to create the directories and install the files

There is now a v2.5.1 which should build with the latest Rust (thanks VolkerS and thanks to the gnirehtet folks for quickly making a new release)

Due to a breaking change in Rust 1.64 the release no longer works. It IOErrors when trying to start the relay server. This has been fixed sometime last year, but the project had no new release since 2020.

If you receive that "shell", "dumpsys", etc. error message, try:

  • After connecting the phone to the computer check the phone notifications for usb and set "File Transfer" instead of battery charging;
  • Wait, there should be a message asking for permission;
  • After giving OK, stop gnirehtet in the terminal (ctrl+c) and start it again.

It's been working fine for me.

I will give it a shot: bumped to version 2.4 / Feedback and/or (Co-)Maintainers welcome!

shreyansh_k commented on 2019-11-25 20:29 (UTC)

No longer using Arch Linux. Requesting community to adopt the package.

shreyansh_k commented on 2018-03-12 17:59 (UTC)

Bumped version to 2.2 Also tried to fix 'cannot stat: gnirehtet.apk'. Feedback is welcome.

TheChosenOne commented on 2017-12-28 20:11 (UTC)

I run into the next error: INFO Main: Checking gnirehtet client... ERROR Main: Execution error: Command adb ["shell", "dumpsys", "package", "com.genymobile.gnirehtet"] returned with value 1

shreyansh_k commented on 2017-11-27 10:03 (UTC)

It's an upstream issue. So, discussion about it is active on remote repo. Please do suggest if you have better solution.
