Arch Linux User Repository

I had a problem running the program, something about its database, solved deleting all local files (maybe it was too much yet it worked)

hi, this one fails to build against the new ffmpeg 5.0, could you use ffmpeg4.4 ?

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/ffmpeg4.4/

Not starting under Gnome, Starting over Terminal brings

Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

Start it over Terminal with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland amarok brings the same error.

I found this in the Arch Forum: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=268180

@JohnRobson It's not happening to me, alternatively you can download the already built package from here:

Has installed, but fails to start. May be an issue opening the MariaDB.

QtWebEngine::initialize() called with QCoreApplication object already created and should be call before. This is depreciated and may fail in the future.
Attribute Qt::AA_ShareOpenGLContexts must be set before QCoreApplication is created.

I maintain the latest built package at:

I'm getting the following error when trying to install this. I have MySQL installed, so I don't know why it's happening.

CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:

I'm trying to build this with yay on archlinux 32, and it fails with this message:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.17/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:164 (message):
  Could NOT find KF5 (missing: NewStuff) (found suitable version "5.68.0",

I have knewstuff 5.69.0-1.0 installed (not 5.68 like it says) - do you have any pointers?

Thanks!

@coxe87b it happens because taglib-extras is a dependency on AUR that can't be installed automatically by makepkg. If you use an AUR helper it do the work for you, otherwise you need to install taglib-extras manually. I recommend you do that installing it with --asdeps in order to use a weak reference to the new package in case you want to uninstall amarok in the future.
