I'm not really using this package anymore, as I migrated to use https://gitlab.com/aar642/shadow-repackaged directly, but I don't want to change the upstream AppImage to shadow-repackaged as this may disrupt other users of this repo. I will continue to update the PKGBUILD until someone else wants to take over.

Finally got my issue resolved. None of the packages that got pinned after I unsubscribed helped. (although they motivated me to resubscribed and try again) I reached out to shadow support and said that they officially support Ubuntu but I couldn't get that working in a VM. (which was true) The person who responded directed me to a repo that helped a lot. https://gitlab.com/aar642/shadow-repackaged

In my case my issue was you can't run plex and shadow at the same time and once I stopped the plex service it worked like a charm. (Note: the Stable version over there didn't work for me but the Beta and Alpha work fine as well the package in this repo. @tionis I highly recommend pinning the link to that gitlab as it has a bunch of possible issues listed with workarounds for a lot of the popular branches. (Arch among others)

Some notes:

Some dependencies may be required and were reported by other users. They are not in PKGBUILD because I personally haven't had any issue running Shadow without these packages. I need more users' reports to confirm they are really required before putting them into PKGBUILD. So please try the following dependencies if you encounter errors, and please report here if these dependencies do resolve your errors.

  1. libldap24 from AUR
  2. net-tools
  3. xdg-utils
  4. flatpak

@F1nny that's weird, I also don't see any changes that could lead to such a situation, if it occurs again, comment here or write me an email, and I'll look into it

Thanks @tionis for taking over the package!=)

After 1161 came out, I noticed yay kept showing shadow as 1092 even though it'd run the build and update successfully each time, it wouldn't actually update. Manually clearing the yay cache/clean build fixed of course, just wanted to mention as never noticed that being necessary before O_o

That being said, after looking at the PKGBUILD changes, none of that would've made any difference RE that, so I'm guessing it's been that way for a while and just never noticed ha.

Anywho appreciate you taking over the package!

@pychuang thanks!

pychuang commented on 2022-09-01 22:34 (UTC)

@tionis Awesome! I am now disowning the package. You can claim it. Thanks!

tionis commented on 2022-09-01 22:31 (UTC)

I would like to take over maintenance of this package, I am currently using a fixed version of this package on my own machine and would like to provide it to others as well

pychuang commented on 2022-04-16 02:34 (UTC)

I canceled the Shadow subscription because it's now somehow expensive. That says, I won't maintain this package. If anyone wants to take over this package, please let me know.

pychuang commented on 2022-02-05 00:59 (UTC)

@Yakuma Thanks. I modified the shadow.sh. Please let me know if it's working for you. I couldn't try it because I couldn't reproduce that login error.

@pychuang @kskudlik flatpak is not needed. It just defines the XDG_DATA_DIRS env to /usr/share and some other dirs.

XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share shadow.sh works but you should just remove the export XDG_DATA_DIRS= line for it to work as /opt/shadow-tech/usr/share does not exist.
