Arch Linux User Repository

I've added a pgp signature to the source file, to import the signing key, run the following command:

gpg --keyserver hkps://keys.openpgp.org --recv-keys FA10826A74907F9EC6BBB7FC2BA2CD21B5B09570

Any hints?

@fruitywelsh: The fix for this problem is to run

archlinux-java set java-11-openjdk

(see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/java#Change_default_Java_environment)

I started to get failing buildings with the error:

* What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':compileJava'.
> Could not target platform: 'Java SE 11' using tool chain: 'JDK 8 (1.8)'.

I was able to get a successful build in my owned cloned git and install by setting: export JAVA_HOME="/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk" export PATH="${JAVA_HOME}/bin:${PATH}"

and installing it manually as described in the README

Adding these to lines to lines 29 and 30 in PKGBUILD, succeeds in building, but gives errors when trying to run the command:

Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again

These errors persists even if my env includes the modified JAVA_HOME and PATH

Sorry if this is wrong place to put this, hope this is useful :)

I can' import the signing key:

> gpg --recv-keys FA10826A74907F9EC6BBB7FC2BA2CD21B5B09570
gpg: keyserver receive failed: General error

Edit: it worked like this:

gpg --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-key FA10826A74907F9EC6BBB7FC2BA2CD21B5B09570

Running signal-cli -u '+XXXXXXXXXXX' daemon fails with error Missing native library dependency for dbus service: could not load FFI provider jnr.ffi.provider.jffi.Provider

Rebuilding and reinstalling signal-cli doesn't fix the issue.

May it be caused by today's update: libelf (0.178-2 -> 0.179-1)?

UPD: Or maybe by this one: glib2 (2.64.2-1 -> 2.64.3-1)?

@pmav99 the build also works with java-8-openjdk but you need the JDK package installed as well (jdk8-openjdk), not just the JRE package (jre8-openjdk)

For the record, I just tried to compile with java-8-openjdk/jre and it failed. After switching to java-11-openjdk it compiled correctly.

The error was:

Execution failed for task ':compileJava'.

Could not find tools.jar. Please check that /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/jre contains a valid JDK installation.
