Solved the issue, thank God. Instead of using java 16, I changed the default to 8, with command: sudo archlinux-java set java-8-openjdk/jre
. I successfully compiled both libdecsync and evolution-decsync.
Hope this will help anyone else stuck with this stupid issue.
Hi there,
I am a Linux newbie, so please disregard the idiocy in my question/commentary. I use Manjaro and tried to install DecSync plugin for Evolution. However, I am unable to do so because my libdecsync is version 1.9.something instead of > 2.0.
So I decided to try and manually compile a higher version. This brought an issue with gradle, because of a function in
settings.gradle
, i.e. deprecated somethingenableFeaturePreview('GRADLE_METADATA')
. Alright, I said, I'll just comment it out with double forward-slashes and be done with it.However, there's another problem now, this time with Java. It says this:
Tried also deleting the line and saving an empty file (since it is the only line), to no avail. I also tried installing gradle5 instead of 7, but there were other errors there.
So basically I can't compile libdecsync > ver 2 because of gradle, and thus cannot use evolution-decsync because of old libdecsync.
What can I do to solve this weird issue!?
Thanks,
