THE PKGBUILD IS NOW CONSIDERED LIKE A VCS ONE, THIS MEAN IT WILL NOT BE BUMPED FOR EVERY VERSION, REPORT ONLY BUILD PROBLEMS NOT NEW VERSIONS!!

OCR is only available for the professional edition, OCR files should be splitted to a separate pkgbuild? Send your opinion at my email

For tips on how to update this package: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Makepkg#Usage

TLDR: Use makepkg -c -si to remove old version and install new version, the -c flag cleans the vuescan-bin directory.

Since some days I also always get an "Canceled (memory dump written)" when starting vuescan using the latest 9.8.31-1 from this AUR.

I can confirm that the vuex64-9.8.31.tgz version (locally unpacked) from the homepage (hamrick.com) works.

I completely deleted and reinstalled viewscan-bin. The problem is still the same.

ok so after some research this has to be something wrong with this AUR package fresh vuescan download works when I add the manually downloaded OCR files it still works just when built from this script and installed it aborts

could you try a fresh rebuild on an up to date system?

FabioLolix commented on 2024-04-03 21:08 (UTC)

No idea, here is starting fine, libadwaita 1.5.0 installed

Redi commented on 2024-04-03 21:05 (UTC)

Any idea why it just "Aborted (core dumped)"? Everything up to date. Nothing about any GTK warnings or adwaita etc.

Hello.

Following the latest ArchLinux update, there is a problem with Vuescan. Here is the message: Gtk-WARNING **: 18:32:16.079: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "adwaita", Abandon (core dumped).

Thanks in advance for correcting the pkgbuilt.

@conan-cimmerian

what is a VCS pkgbuild?

A pkbuild which pull the latest commit using a Version Control System [git, mercurial (hg), subversion (svn), bazaar (bzr), etc ]

Does this mean that this soft will no longer be updated?

No, it is still updated


since the software author does not always rename the version on their website

Note that the upstream archives are renamed at download with $(date +%F-%H) since years, so the renaming is 'hourly'
