@arcanis Do you want to update the package to include the Python -> Jetbrains IDE Projects plugin? If not I can do that. I've got it working locally.

Hi! thank you for maintaining the package.

I just want to mention that there are a few python plugins for albert that are linked as submodules of albertlauncher/python, e.g. jetbrains_projects, that are currently empty/nonexistent in the final package, because they were not git submodule updated.

Thanks for the response, I was just curious of the various launchers available and didn't look deep into it.

its optional and make dependecy ¯_(ツ)_/¯ you can remove it anytime as soon as you have compiled the package (and only in case if you are not buildin in clean chroot)

virtualbox plugin is linked against VBoxXPCOM.so which is provided by virtualbox package. Also it requires VirtualBox_XPCOM.h header which is provided by virtualbox-sdk package.

Actually namcap literally says

albert W: Referenced library 'VBoxXPCOM.so' is an uninstalled dependency

but since this plugin is optional *.so will be never loaded if you didn't enable the plugin, it's an optional dependency. But both of them are required during package building. For more info kindly check its source code https://github.com/albertlauncher/plugins/tree/master/virtualbox

Unflagging package. For the one without virtualbox dependency there is https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/albert-minimal/

Are you guys idiots? virtualbox is an optional dependency, and it specifically says why it's needed: "VirtualBox plugin". Additionally virtualbox and virtualbox-sdk are make dependencies, most likely so the VirtualBox plugin can be built against it. You can inspect the PKGBUILD for christ's sake. "This is definitely suspicious"...

Also wondering why this needs virtualbox!

why does this package need virtualbox?
