@misagh: according to [1] packaging should not touch the home directory. Since, the files are stored in /usr/share/sioyek which should be output during the installation of the package (see l.40 in PKGBUILD).

@rien333: after moving the necessary files to the expected locations (see above) my installation works. Rendering of the pdf should work after moving the shaders directory to ~/.local/share/sioyek. This is because upstream does not acknowledge system-wide locations for these files.

@misagh Thanks, very silly stuff. It seems like sioyek should just be using the shaders and tutorial pdf from /usr/share/sioyek — no sense in making those things user configurable.

Please take a look at this comment by Sioyek devs regarding building for linux: https://github.com/ahrm/sioyek/issues/26#issuecomment-911644098

You are supposed to "put the shaders folder and tutorial.pdf in ~/.local/share/sioyek and put the keys.config and prefs.config files in ~/.config/sioyek."

Manually placing the .pdf, the config files, and shaders in the correct place resolves the issue. However the user has to manually download them from github and this is not ideal.

Right now this is not the case, and the application is unusable. The compilation error regarding user groups have been fixed.

No single pdf seems to render, I only get a blank, white screen where the pdf should be rendering. Terminal output shows no errors. Anybody with the same issue?

Getting an error where ld cannot find -lmupdf-threads:

I thought it might be because I was missing libmupdf but installing that did not help.

The errors should now all be removed. If they still persist, please comment.

I have exactly the same issue as flylightning does. Installation only looks for user:user when it should also consider user in wheel group. Currently package is unusbale.

flylightning commented on 2021-09-19 00:16 (UTC)

my user name is xyz, my user group name is wheel, current pkgbuild will produce error chown: invalid group: ‘xyz:xyz’

Maybe it's better to add '' install -Dm644 ./resources/sioyek-icon-linux.png ${pkgdir}/usr/share/icons/${pkgname%-git}-icon-linux.png install -Dm644 ./resources/${pkgname%-git}.desktop $pkgdir/usr/share/applications/${pkgname%-git}.desktop '' in the package() function. Besides, it's not a good idea to touch anything within the home directory in the PKGBUILD file.
