Arch Linux User Repository

I've built with jdk8... Like this:

env JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk PATH=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/jre/bin:$PATH makepkg -sic

But if you want to execute jitsi, it's better to set it globally:

archlinux-java set java-8-openjdk

See pinned comment.

Does this package include jibri for recording and streaming, or is that packaged separately somewhere else?

Hi! Can you please use Exec=jitsi instead of Exec=/usr/bin/jitsi in the *.desktop file? This way, local overrides in /usr/local/bin and things like that work correctly. It's also the standard way to specify Exec section of the desktop file. UPD: Thanks!

The following issue still exists

BUILD FAILED

To fix it you need this command

sudo archlinux-java set java-8-jdk

@satriani sorry forgot to add jitsi.sh

Please, sync your local repo and try again :P

@yochananmarqos done. Also I have added a check in /usr/bin/jitsi script.

In a few days I will orphan this package, because I don't use it anymore.

@figue: If JRE & JDK 8 are required, you should specify them in the dependencies:

depends=('java-runtime=8')
makedepends=('apache-ant' 'java-environment=8')

...and it's sudo archlinux-java set java-8-openjdk/jre to set it as default.

@cassyb you shouldn't use yaourt anymore (it's deprecated and removed from AUR). See full AUR helpers list here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_helpers

In this comment is explained by @r0b0t

In order to have this install correctly:

1) Select jdk8-openjdk (option 4) when installing java-environment (it compiles with that version only)

2) make sure your HOME_JAVA is set right (use archlinux-java):

$ archlinux-java get java-8-openjdk

The build + build-error looks for me like:
