The media player of the 64gram does not work with system media controller.

(64gram-desktop:2086203): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: 14:40:12.370: g_bus_own_name_on_connection: assertion 'g_dbus_is_name (name) && !g_dbus_is_unique_name (name)' failed

Gemini says that DBus does not allow name start with number like org.mpris.MediaPlayer2.64Gram and it creates this patch. It works for me now.

Suggestion: In the PKGBUILD, change the dependency on protobuf to libprotobuf-lite.so (and add protobuf to makedepends then), so a versioned dependency will be generated at build time automatically and out of date errors due to updated libraries are maybe easier to spot (automatically?):

64gram-desktop: error while loading shared libraries: libprotobuf-lite.so.31.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

After https://github.com/TDesktop-x64/tdesktop/commit/bbdcb047d0f321647ca90204f238ef4b35cbb9b5 new patch is needed.

We might need a patch similar to the lzma patch for lz4

After https://github.com/TDesktop-x64/tdesktop/commit/3d481113688041b85523628a06a6863f7e21ed64, block-sponsored-messages.patch is broken. Here is a new version of this patch I've tested locally - please consider changing it here (note that line endings should be dos-style). Thanks!

@dr460nf1r3 Thank you, it should build fine now.

Several findings for building this package:

1. python-packaging missing in makedeps
2. libxdamage also had to be added
3. Build failure due to improper line endings in some files could be fixed by adding find "${srcdir}"/ -type f -exec dos2unix {} \; to prepare step and makedeps

@xiota Ok, I will add it for the next release.
