Please check if there's actually a new version for Linux available before flagging this package. The version numbers for Windows and Linux are different.

If anyone already has anydesk-bin 5.5.5-2 installed then removing pango related conflicts and the workaround from the build file enables proper installation of 5.5.5-4 over 5.5.5-2 and anydesk continues to work fine. I will use this workaround until a proper solution comes for pango.

Anydesk is failing to load because it can't find pangox, which was removed the repos 2 days ago. I still had it in my cache so I reinstalled it, but its an obsolete dependency so I hope anydesk fixes this.

I have the same issue today. The solution is to install 'anydesk-debian' AUR package.

@zuzavo Yes, generally speaking it's a bad idea but currently the pangox-compat package is not there so I added the symlink to the package. It's an ancient library but nevertheless I don't know why it was removed

I've read in the forums that link and change the names of the libs isn't a good idea. Soon or late the whole thing will break in any update. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=151082 (related to another issue...)

For Manjaro users:

You can install version 5.5.5-3 of the package until Manjaro also removes pangox-compat

mkdir anydesk-bin && cd anydesk-bin && curl -o PKGBUILD https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/plain/PKGBUILD?h=anydesk-bin&id=8648470b1ea3d4bd29ad9fa68139bfd1353604b8 && makepkg -rsi


For Arch users:

It seems that the pangox-compat package has been removed from the repositories. (And I was not notified before removing it, although I maintain a package which depends on it) (https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/?h=packages/pangox-compat)

I added a workaround to the package that adds a symlink for libpangox-1.0.so.0 which seems to work. (If anybody has a better solution please tell me!)

I did not have pangox-compat nor pango-anydesk installed, updated to latest anydesk-bin and could not start it due to

anydesk: error while loading shared libraries: libpangox-1.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

As proposed by israuor, symlinking the "missing" shared object solved it:

sudo -i cd /usr/lib ln -s libpangoxft-1.0.so libpangox-1.0.so.0

My question is only how the package could avoid that manual interaction.

D3SOX commented on 2020-05-03 10:35 (UTC)

My guess is that the the anydesk pango compat package did leave traces. I'm adding it to the conflicts

ik_5 commented on 2020-05-03 09:04 (UTC)

Like @israuor I also get the same error. I removed pango-anydesk and anydesk-bin and reinstalled them at the same order, and it is still happening.

Looking at libpangox libraries I do have on my machine:

/usr/lib/libpangoxft-1.0.so /usr/lib/libpangoxft-1.0.so.0 /usr/lib/libpangoxft-1.0.so.0.4400.7 /usr/lib32/libpangoxft-1.0.so /usr/lib32/libpangoxft-1.0.so.0 /usr/lib32/libpangoxft-1.0.so.0.4400.7 /usr/share/anydesk/files/pango-1.43.0-2/libpangoxft-1.0.so /usr/share/anydesk/files/pango-1.43.0-2/libpangoxft-1.0.so.0 /usr/share/anydesk/files/pango-1.43.0-2/libpangoxft-1.0.so.0.4300.0
