Arch Linux User Repository

Hello everyone,

There was been several difficulties upgrading the Joplin due to major changes in the build system upstream.

I have finnally got version 2.6.10 working with pacthes, but remenber:

• You may need to remove your src/ folder before using this version

• The patches are still not perfect, you must say yes to a prompt

I will continue working on this later today, but its usable and stable, please remenber you can always report issues on the github repository.

Regards, Alfredo Palhares

Hello everyone,

I will be renaming the packages to its final form.

• joplin will contain the CLI application
• joplin-desktop will contain the Desktop version

Also, please for problems with the package, please open an issue on the Github repo, its really hard to provide support on the comments section, you can also email me.

If you have problems with the check() function, just run makepkg with the --nocheck flag.

Thank you for your patience. Regards, Alfredo Palhares

About the 'node-gyp rebuild' error, just install nodejs-lts-carbon or another lts release. Worked for me!

Error: sharp@0.18.4 install: 'node-gyp rebuild'

The latest Firefox and Chrome Web Clipper extensions are only compatible with Joplin 1.0.99+ according to the developer: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/629#issuecomment-397888946

This patch for PKGBUILD will allow you to install Joplin 1.0.99 and restore the Web Clipper functionality:

@bossi - Thanks for the link. I ended up getting Joplin to work by installing NVM using it to install nodejs-lts-carbon. Anyone who wants to try it check out these two links: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Node.js_ https://github.com/creationix/nvm

Once I followed those links, I removed the nodejs-lts-carbon in the two places it is listed in the PKGBUILD and the package installed and runs fine now.

@felmey - Yes, Joplin's dependencies have moved from nodejs to nodejs-lts-carbon, due to an incompatibility with the latest nodejs-10's sqlite libraries, it seems. This results in dependency conflicts if you have anything else installed that depends on nodejs as the two nodejs-packages are mutually exclusive.

Have a look here for further details.

There seems to be a problem with nodejs and it wants to install nodejs-lts-carbon but that breaks other dependencies... Anyone else have this problem?

Awesome, thanks @masterkorp,

I see you're listing your github repo in the sources, was just about to suggest. I'll continue using that space instead to track issues; happy to contribute back if I get a chance.

Best Regards~

Hello @bossi,

Yes, the AUR repository, its just for the code. I do have another repository on github https://github.com/masterkorp/joplin-pkgbuild

You are more than welcome to open an issue there, or even contribute directly.
