I changed LD_LIBRARY_PATH and removed /etc/conf.d/plexmediaserver from the backup array. I think there will be fewer people modifying that file in comparison to the amount of issues from not having it be correct.

It might even be worth just moving all of that to the .service file instead.

In that case, it might be worth outputting a message on package update informing users that it needs to be changed (or maybe check/grep for its presence and alert if it's not changed).

@fryfrog The packaged libva.so.2 same as before. The difference is that they moved libva.so.2 and all other *.so files from /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/ to /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib/ folder. So your plexmediaserver.conf.d file needs to be updated. LD_LIBRARY_PATH now needs to point to /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/lib folder instead. Otherwise Plex will load libraries from your host, not the packaged ones.

This will be kind of manual work for users, because /etc/conf.d/plexmediaserver file is in "backup" array in PKGBUILD...

@miffe: Done, I already had it installed, probably via some other package. I wonder why they're not packaging it along w/ everything else they include?

/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Plex Media Server: error while loading shared libraries: libva.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Needs a depends on libva

@luizfelipefb, if you'd looked at almost any other time you'd have seen that this version is higher / newer than the other one. But today they released a new version to both at the same time. Plexpass users have paid for the privilege of testing releases for non-paying users. Sometimes those builds have new features in them, usually they don't.

You can use which ever you like, if you're happy w/ the non-plexpass one, stick w/ it. If you ever notice something missing even though your Plexpass should enable it, you can switch then. :)

Can anyone tell me why this exists? I've just upgraded to plex pass and still using the plex-media-server version without any problems. What's the difference between plex-media-server and plex-media-server-plexpass if the no plexplass works the same?

Please, dismiss my last comment.

You've got something super weird going on w/ your setup and need to figure it out. I have a Plug-ins-10d48da0d on my system and when I do a clean install in a chroot to test.

Your 115f087d6 is probably the checksum from the previous version.

It sounds like you're not restarting plexmediaserver when you upgrade.

Now I'm getting this in the logs: Sep 22, 2018 19:57:56.319 [0x7fcb803fc700] WARN - Warning: ex: boost::filesystem::last_write_time: No such file or directory: "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Plug-ins-115f087d6/PlexMusic.bundle/Contents/Code/Artist.py", couldn't check file: "/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Plug-ins-115f087d6/PlexMusic.bundle/Contents/Code/Artist.py" And a bunch more similar warnings, about Utils.py and other files in that directory. Looks like metadata scraping or something, and is probably related to my lack of thumbnails.

Interestingly enough, I don't have a /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Plug-ins-115f087d6 directory, but I do have a /usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Plug-ins-10d48da0d directory. What gives?
