Installing groops on Arch (Manjaro) #54

Closed marcianito closed 2 years ago

Hi,

I just wanted to share a bug/problem and fix I found while installing groops.

I am on Manjaro (Arch) and so I followed the respective instructions for installation.

using AUR

I always got an error like github.com [ip] could not connected: timeout.

building from code

I downloaded the code and tried to build myself but got an error concerning file inputOutput/file.cpp

second (sucessful) try with AUR

Investigating a little more I somewhat found the problem. It seems that the AUR package have an insufficient "adress". The solution is statet here https://github.com/Jguer/yay/issues/1729

So basically what fixed the AUR installation: yay -S --editmenu groops-git groopsgui-git

Then you have to edit the line in PKGBuild that says "source" from git://repo-adress to git+https://repo-adress

And installation when smoothly.

Hi, thanks for sharing this issue. The AUR GROOPS package was created by @x49, so maybe they can use this information to fix it?

I updated the groops-git and groopsgui-git AUR packages with the best practices you pointed out, thank you for bringing this to our attention and providing the appropriate fix.
