This package provides only the native host messaging connector that integrates with GNOME Shell and the corresponding extensions repository https://extensions.gnome.org

You also need to install the extension for your web browser. Find below URL for the extension/add-on for the supported browsers:

Opera is not supported. See Installation for this and more info.

@caseyjp1: was your message a reply for me or the package maintainer? For the record, this is a VCS package, which means it will install the latest version available of the software in the repository. Therefore, users of this package will receive the latest native host connector when installing, even though the pkgver is set to 5.1_xxxxx

You are using different versions of GNOME Shell integration extension (version 6.2) and native host connector (version 6). Some features may not work or work wrong. The plugin from gnome is showing up to date. host connector is out of date. fyi.

Maxiride: There is no compatibility problem. You just have to install this package plus the Gnome Shell Integration extension in Chrome Web Store. More information on https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GnomeShellIntegrationForChrome

Is there a way to install it into chromium instead?

Maintainer, your PKGBUILD has a pkgver() function that is incorrectly using $pkgver (variable) to define itself. This is causing the pkgver to be kept as 5.1. In order to get the real current version number, please replace the use of $pkgver as first parameter of pkgver()'s printf with something like 'git describe --long' or a string regexp in the PROJECT_VERSION from file 'CMakeLists.txt' For more information, see: -> https://www.archlinux.org/pacman/PKGBUILD.5.html#_options_and_directives -> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VCS_package_guidelines @sakel: In matter of fact, you are getting the latest code with the incorrect version number in the package, as explained in the above paragraph.

@sakel I just re-installed this package and it pulls the latest code just fine from the master branch(version 6 as of writing)

sakel commented on 2016-05-20 10:44 (UTC)

I think it pulls the latest version 5 (or 5.1) and j1simon's comment refer to the fact that the new current version is 6. This also raises a warning when visiting extensions.gnome and an error from the chrome plugin.

winsock commented on 2016-05-18 15:49 (UTC)

@j1simon Did you do a rebuild of this package? This always pulls and builds the latest commit in the master branch. AFAIK, This is how git AUR packages are expected to work.

I'm unflagging this as out of date for now, since this builds straight from the git repo this is actually building the latest version (currently 5.2) not 5.1. Since there was no file I could extract the current version number at the time I just hardcoded the version number. The only thing out of date is the package name, I'll update the version in the PKGBUILD and see about extracting the current version from the CMakeLists.txt to auto update the version on package build.
