Arch Linux User Repository

It appears as though the free version this package was using was discontinued in favor of a subscription model. I've reached out to the author about restoring links but have not heard back - I think it's their intention to only offer paid version 1.09 so this should probably be removed.

I had some trouble getting this to run.

• The source URL is currently returning HTTP 404 (and has been for most of this year apparently). The source file can be obtained from Way Back Machine.
• The MD5 sums of the .tar.gz and baudline_jack.desktop are (for x86_64):
  • 81bc98d9300936ae75024501d0f5b1b6: baudline_1.08_linux_x86_64.tar.gz
  • 533294bfeddd8ec9c506f4d269eb5749: baudline_jack.desktop

This allowed me to build/install it, then I encountered the following error:

could not open 10x20 font
could not open 5x7 font
X Error of failed request:  BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)
  Major opcode of failed request:  3 (X_GetWindowAttributes)
  Resource id in failed request:  0x0
  Serial number of failed request:  519
  Current serial number in output stream:  520

Following Eric F. GARIOUD's comment on the Gentoo's Bugzilla:

1. Replace 8559 with 10646 on the lines beginning with 5x7 and 10x20 in the file: /usr/share/fonts/misc/fonts.alias
2. Run xset fp rehash in the terminal from where you launch baudline

Not sure what else that breaks, but it at least opens a window now.

I don't know much about PKGBUILDs, so I don't know if this is the correct way to fix this. But running md5sum baudline_jack.desktop and changing the 3rd hash in the PKGBUILD worked for me (the hash for me was 533294bfeddd8ec9c506f4d269eb5749). To edit the PKGBUILD you can use yay -S --editmenu baudline-bin

Still cannot build this package without tweaking due to the checksum error.

Hi thank you very much for the passionate work you are doing! Im trying to install Baudline on this fresh Computer/OS, and get the same issue like Adabru:

==> Validating source files with md5sums...
baudline_1.08_linux_x86_64.tar.gz ... Passed
baudline.desktop ... Passed

-> error making: baudline-bin-exit status 1
-> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
 baudline-bin - exit status 1

removing baudline_jack.desktop file and re-downloading it still fails validation is there something I'm missing? any help its welcome!

From the original site, it can be seen this: "The old baudline 1.08 version is a available on this page. The new baudline 1.09 is available via a subscription model and site license. "

This means eventually this software will stop working without any possible fix. Apart from that, I don't have much time, so I disown it.

I had the same issue as xapuu and installing xorg-fonts-misc and rebooting was not enough to fix the error for me. For me the issue persistet after installing xorg-font-util, xorg-fonts-100dpi, xorg-fonts-75dpi xorg-fonts-alias-100dpi, xorg-fonts-alias-75dpi, xorg-fonts-alias-misc, xorg-fonts-encodings, xorg-fonts-misc.

After installing xorg-mkfontscale 1.2.1-2 baudline was finally starting without the issue. Might this be a dependency that should be added?

@xapuu You need to reboot after installation.
