Dear Ondřej,
thank you for informing me about this issue.
As you said, in the AUR we are technically only distributing "Descriptions on how
to build Seafile", not Seafile itself, so as far as I understand the GPL, we're fine.
Should someone, however, contact me about merging any of these packages into the main
repositories (which would imply distribution of automatically built binaries),
I shall point them to this problem (should it not be fixed by then).
One question, though, as I'm not really clear on that point: The GPL violations
seem to be in the seafile repository, do they also automatically propagate to
anything that includes them (like the seafile-client repository)?
I ask because you posted this here and not at one of the other seafile-* packages.
Cheers,
Moritz

Dear maintainer,
the seafile is violation GPL[1] and the resulting work
cannot be legally distributed. I am not sure if that
also applies to ArchLinux since you are not distributing
binary packages, but you should be at least aware of the
issue.
Cheers,
Ondrej

The sha256 sum differs from the archive.

yes, tested it with -j 9
<deleted-account> commented on 2014-03-14 23:34 (UTC)
Have you explicitly tested it with more jobs, otherwise that could simply be because makepkg.conf has one job by default?
allspark commented on 2014-03-14 22:13 (UTC)
please remove the '-j1'. it builds fine without

pacman -Qo /usr/share/applications/seafile.desktop
/usr/share/applications/seafile.desktop is owned by seafile-shared 2.1.1-4
The .desktop file resides in the "seafile" repo, not in the "seafile-client" repo, so it goes into seafile-shared ATM, but it is there (since seafile-client depends on seafile-shared).

Works fine, but a .desktop file in /usr/share/apps would be helpful for having it in the menus.

Before unflagging this, please wait for a response to this: https://github.com/haiwen/seafile/issues/406#issuecomment-32260305

Because of a serious bug in the client, I was asked not to provide version 2.0.7 here[1]. For the time being I'll thus use 2.0.6 here.

Please, when you have compilation or execution errors, recompile each component without using an AUR helper before reporting an issue.
