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.

At the end of line 23 the v2 should be v4, otherwise the package function fails.

After updating this package to version 5-1, the software still claims to be on version 2, both in Settings->Info within grayjay itself as well as in the console output. I think this should be due to FUTO not actually having published any new binary release since the original version 2 release (at least the sha256sum hash hasn't changed).

why isn't this package working? can you take a look and fix it?

creates 2 entries on application launcher, there's an extra .desktop file somewhere that I can't find, and also fails to launch unless it's from the terminal, please fix this

molasses2: thanks, done.

FYI this fails to launch when you have mounted /home with noexec flag, as you should for security. there is no valid reason for executable files of installed software to live in user directory.

Thank you for creating this package! Please add "unzip" as a dependency.

This is not an ideal build, there are still some teething issues with the early Grayjay builds like writing logs to the application path (complicating normal install to /opt/grayjay) and relative path reference to CEF (complicating launching via desktop entry). These are worked around in this build, but those workarounds will be rolled back as the underlying issues are addressed.
