@erb: It works fine in my system now. Thanks a lot.

Thanks to your previous links I started investigating the Steam case and found this gem: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2021/09/steam-not-working-right-on-arch-linux-its-an-issue-with-freetype-and-theres-a-fix/comment_id=209960

I tried removing libharfbuzz.so.0, and now it runs fine. Not sure what implications there may be though, if any. This comment describes a previous and similar experience: https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/issues/388#issuecomment-859465196

  • [x] Will add the removal of the lib to the PKGBUILD and make a new rev.
  • [ ] Will probably have to fix something upstream too once harfbuzz 3.0 hits more distros (suggestions welcome! is just leaving libharfbuzz out enough?).

The issue for this is here: https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/issues/660

It seems something with freetype2 2.11.0.

Case with other package: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/7935

I have found this information:

I had installed some Python extensions. Some of these extensions seems the cause of the issue, maybe. I reinstalled freetype2. It didn't help. I will follow tracing.

I uninstalled activitywatch-bin and reinstalled it. The error is here yet.

@alerque: I updated pacman, I updated AUR, I installed the productivity packages: Trello, Notion, Jira.

Hi. After several months of using this package, I can't use it since yesterday. If I try to run the command aw-qt in the console, I get:

If I input http://localhost:5600/ in my browser, it works fine.

EDIT: Sorry, I deleted this comment unintentionally.

@andean_engineer What did you update or remove from your system yesterday? This is clearly missing some dependencies — that you must have had up until yesterday.

alerque commented on 2021-06-15 15:36 (UTC)

Fair enough, I didn't see how bad it was (the only part I happen to be using runs fine from 0.11.0 as installed during that 15 min window) but I see they pulled the tag upstream so that's something.

erb commented on 2021-06-15 15:08 (UTC)

@caleb Sorry, but the release is completely broken on Linux, so there really isn't much point to run v0.11 as it was built (see https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/issues/607).

Hopefully in those 15 min a limited number of people updated and they can fix it themselves.

This was my hope... Sorry for causing a mess.

Please just set it back to 0.11.0 with -2 pkgrel.

I'll do so as soon as we have a release that actually somewhat works.

alerque commented on 2021-06-15 14:32 (UTC)

@erb You can't downgrade a package like that, to make it work for people you have to bump the epoch. That being said, please don't. Epoch versions are forever and obnoxious at that. Hopefully in those 15 min a limited number of people updated and they can fix it themselves. Also people can run old versions by checking out the commit they want (or keeping their own built packages). I personally want the new version bugs and all. Please just set it back to 0.11.0 with -2 pkgrel.

alerque commented on 2020-12-10 14:44 (UTC)

This should be marked as conflicting/providing the aw-* series of packages (which confusingly don't mention the term "activitywatch" in the description so it is hard to search for, but they are there).

After the update to 9.0 I get the following error while starting aw-server:

Error loading Python lib '/usr/bin/libpython3.6m.so.1.0': dlopen: /usr/bin/libpython3.6m.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Should I post this to the authors repository or is this due to a missing dependency?

$ python --version
Python 3.8.2

Edit: I saw you are already on it: https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/issues/378

@attenuation That is a known problem, see this issue: https://github.com/ActivityWatch/activitywatch/issues/208
