tws-10.16.1o-standalone-linux-x64.sh fails the validity check

Thanks for the fix. Despite running 'rm -rf /home/user/.local/share/i4j_jres' as pointed out by @benalexau, I get this error now though:

Finishing installation ... java.home JRE location expanded to /home/vbm/.local/share/i4j_jres/Oda-jK0QgTEmVssfllLP java.home JRE location did not contain java; finding log entry which installed java Could not find bundled JRE installation entry in log

The error

ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

happens still/again when trying to build.

@MarsSeed, did you get it installed in the end? It is unfortunate the Interactive Brokers installer makes so many changes outside the build directory. There is no other way of extracting the required files unfortunately.

Re ffmpeg, if you search through the comments you can see between 2018 and 2020 various packages were tried. I don't use audio with IB Gateway so I cannot confirm what works and what doesn't. The last person who confirmed something worked stated ffmpeg-compat-55, so that's what it is at present. If you confirm a different package works, I am happy to update the PKGBUILD.

Also, running the first time, it generated some kind of log searching for different versions of libav or libavcodec/ffmpeg, but didn't find any.

The latest version it tried to find was libav-ffmpeg-57 (or libavcodec-ffmpeg-57, I don't remember exactly).

Based on this, it should in theory work with the much newer optdepends=ffmpeg3.4 (updated last month), and does not need the very old and somewhat broken ffmpeg-compat-55 (EOL, last update released in 2015).

Building this package makes a lot of uncontrolled changes to the system, it writes to ~/{myusername}, ~/.config, ~.local/share, ~/.gnome, also to the configured tar source directory of makepkg. It installs a JRE under somewhere in ~/ (~ is shorthand for /home/{myusername}/).

And the second time I ran the build again, it dit much less a the first time, even though I've deleted everything from the PKGBUILD's src and pkg directories.

@Eldomir, CI has just updated the PKGBUILD.

I'm getting ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! whenever I try to install the package.

@bealexau thanks. Embarrassingly difficult for me :)

@bealexau thanks, that works. Embarassingly simple =(
