Arch Linux User Repository

Sorry for the unreliable builds recently. I've spoken with Futo about the generic latestversion.zip downloads and have been advised about versioned links which they don't officially publish. Hopefully that should finally resolve the issue of this package breaking when a new release is published to the same download URL breaking checksums.

Even with the new update this package seems to remain broken

I can't install it:

Same issue. No patch for now.

/home/<user>/.cache/paru/clone/grayjay-bin/PKGBUILD: line 23: cd: /home/<user>/.cache/paru/clone/grayjay-bin/src/grayjay/Grayjay.Desktop-linux-x64-v5: No such file or directory

I have checked manually and the folder that is actually being created is marked as v4.

I'm not sure where it would get that v5 in the path. The current zip has v4 in it. Can you show more of the error message? Also are you testing my patch, or talking about current PKGBUILD?

Btw for anyone testing, Grayjay stopped reading ~/Grayjay for whatever reason and is saving in ~/.local/share/grayjay, which would be wiped on subsequent updates...

There seems to be an issue with the build on 5-2 maybe. my /home/<user>/.cache/yay/grayjay-bin/src/grayjay/Grayjay.Desktop-linux-x64-v5 folder does not exist when it tries to build. creating manually does not help, it gets cleaned after failure I think. Maybe someone can confirm it's not just me.

Yea that is kinda problematic, and FUTO should address it, but in the mean time I've came up with this.
1. Skip all checksums as you suggested
2. Using find with regex to find Grayjay directory after unziping.
3. Because once /usr/bin/grayjay script has copied GJ to ~/.local/share, it will not update them, I added an if to check if AppVersion.json has changed.

The problem here with checksums is that Futo publishes each release to a generic 'latest' URL without anything to differentiate between versions. Short of mirroring the releases somewhere else with versioned file names, I'm not sure how to address this other than changing checksums to SKIP.
