I'm also getting the following installation error when installing with yay: "ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!".

slimserver-vendor-public-8.4.tar.gz fails the check.

Sorry I don't know how to resolve in the way @squawk describes.

*EDIT*

I believe that I worked out how to change the checksums, however the installation fails at the next step:

*EDIT 2*

Got past this by first installing openssl-1.1 .

However all ends badly with:

If I run zstd in a terminal, I get the same error. I use pacman to reinstall zstd, it again tries to reinstall version 1.5.5

*EDIT 3*

This last error was a PATH problem on my sytem. In the process of figuring that out, I installed the AUR logitechmediaserver-git package.

New user here. Also had Perl-related issues while installing on manjaro. I'd like to add my solution for future reference.

install github-cli
gh repo clone Logitech/slimserver-vendor
sudo ln -s /usr/include/locale.h /usr/include/xlocale.h
change to appropriate folder, in my case ~/slimserver-vendor/CPAN and run ./buildme.sh
create directories needed: /opt/logitechmediaserver/CPAN/arch/5.38
sudo cp -r /home/wim/slimserver-vendor/CPAN/build/5.38/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /opt/logitechmediaserver/CPAN/arch/5.38/
sudo unlink /usr/include/xlocale.h

Hope this helps others with perl-related issues

@Whs33, (@stef.an)

I had the same issue. I downloaded the tar.gz file from the branch 8.4 of the slimserver-vendor project. It has a different md256sum now. As I think the commit last week by mherger on github lead in a different tar.gz-file and in a different hash. I think the problem is to reference a branch that is work in progress. The slimserver-vendor-project did not nave any releases or tags. I'm not sure if one can download a specific commit (referenced by commit id) to overcome the hash issue. After I changed the sha256sums at the location for the slimserver-vendor-archive the build runs without problems. I have to say thank you for your work!

@stef.an I get a validity check fail on slimserver-vendor-public.

==> Validating source files with sha256sums...
    slimserver-8.3.1.tar.gz ... Passed
    slimserver-vendor-public-8.4.tar.gz ... FAILED
    logitechmediaserver.service ... Passed
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

On a different machine but still latest manjaro, LMS builds and works perfectly. Curious, I went back to the machine which failed and it now builds and runs LMS. Some update somewhere must have fixed things.

@stef.an: Thanks for maintaining this, I'd be happy to help if needed.

@wes33 Depending on the version of perl that is installed in your Manjaro setup, it might be the case that slimserver-vendor is too new. In my patch below, I just updated to the very latest version since it seems to work fine on a vanilla arch install. You could try the following patch to the PKBUILD, which will use the previous release:

I'm kind of "investigating" this but I need a Manjaro VM first... not sure if the distro is the problem though.

@jazzi - thanks for that but does not work for me; docker container is a simple solution though I'd still rather run LMS "natively". The AUR package used to work and maybe will again someday :)

@wes33 Regarding the CPAN modules, the LMS author Michael indicates:

"Get a copy of https://github.com/Logitech/slimserver-vendor/tree/public/8.4/CPAN and try to follow the README. That's what I'll eventually do to add support for the next Perl/platform combination."
