The package is now finally upgraded to the latest 2024.x release!

Thanks to @row's patch it not only supports the DCV, but also continues to support PCoIP.

If anyone has issues with the new release: I also published the old release under a new name here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/amazon-workspaces-legacy-bin

Please still comment here if you have any issues with the new release & include your streaming protocol (DCV/PCoIP). Thanks!

Thank you very much @row.

@janek is there a way to change the build part that removes the glib library please ?

I had to do this instead

sed -i -e 's/Exec=workspacesclient/Exec=workspacesclient-wrapper/' ${srcdir}/usr/share/applications/com.amazon.workspacesclient.desktop

cp /tmp/glib-test/libgio-2.0.so.0.8200.5 ${srcdir}/usr/lib/${arch}-linux-gnu/workspacesclient/dcv/libgio-2.0.so.0
cp /tmp/glib-test/libglib-2.0.so.0.8200.5 ${srcdir}/usr/lib/${arch}-linux-gnu/workspacesclient/dcv/libglib-2.0.so.0
cp /tmp/glib-test/libgmodule-2.0.so.0.8200.5 ${srcdir}/usr/lib/${arch}-linux-gnu/workspacesclient/dcv/libgmodule-2.0.so.0
cp /tmp/glib-test/libgobject-2.0.so.0.8200.5 ${srcdir}/usr/lib/${arch}-linux-gnu/workspacesclient/dcv/libgobject-2.0.so.0
cp /tmp/glib-test/libgthread-2.0.so.0.8200.5 ${srcdir}/usr/lib/${arch}-linux-gnu/workspacesclient/dcv/libgthread-2.0.so.0

I had to upgrade glib2 2.84.0 system wide, seems other applications in my system were broken without it, so, i had to manually put the older version into the amazon workspace client

is there something im missing ?

DavidNorena commented on 2025-03-11 19:16 (UTC)

as for today, please downgrade glib2 to make it work, otherwise i was getting a Disconnected window without errors or warnings.

downgraded glib2 (2.84.0-1 -> 2.82.5-1)

working on kernel 6.13.6-arch1-1

Can't say, working here with 6.12.18-1-lts

DavidNorena commented on 2025-03-11 02:37 (UTC)

seems to be broken with 6.13.5.arch1-1

I have the extra window in XFCE. Might be a new feature.

oxfordquant commented on 2025-01-30 18:31 (UTC)

I get the same extra window using KDE Plasma. I think it's a new feature, not a bug. Great work @row and @janek!

stilvoid commented on 2025-01-29 11:21 (UTC)

@artafinde yes, I'm in i3 and have the same problem with an unclosable window.

Nice work @janek and @row on getting this updated and still including PCoIP!

artafinde commented on 2025-01-28 15:02 (UTC)

Hello @janek,

Thanks for the update - seems to be working OK on my PCoIP protocol. I have a weird thing though. Everything opens ok but it spawns a separate window as well and can't close it - that shows the "My Workspace" window from the sandwich settings. I can move it around but not close it no matter what. I use i3wm.

Anyone experienced this?

Thank you @janek and @row! You guys are awesome.
