Hey @Musikolo, thank you for all the help. Here are the three outputs.
pacman -Ql bcompare > bcompare-files.txt:

@bakgwailo, I uninstalled all BC5 packages I have and drop all
.config
directories for BC. I installed BC5 package from scratch, runbcompare
from a terminal and it works well for me. Besides sharing the list of packages I asked before, please share the content of the BC5 package you built:pacman -Ql bcompare > bcompare-files.txt
.Another thing that could help is if you could share the output you get when running
strace bcompare > strace-bcompare.txt 2>&1
.Thanks.

@bakgwailo, OK, good to see we have the same DE. I deleted my .config folder and rebuilt the package. Everything it's fine on my end.
I'm thinking the reason why it works for me could be a missing dependency I have and you don't. Can you please share a list with all the packages you have installed? Just need to issue
pacman -Q > package-list.txt
and share that file.bakgwailo commented on 2024-03-16 04:56 (UTC)
I'll add: even with .config/bcompare5 seemingly populated correctly from running the manually installed version in my home directory (which does work), the AUR installed bcompare bin still has the same license error popup making me think it is looking for the .config/bcompare somewhere else - or maybe a permission issue somehow?

@Musikolo thank you for the reply. Using stable repos and latest KDE6. I removed bcompare (had 4 installed) then did:
makepkg -crsp PKGBUILD_BC5_BETA
which built successfully, and then to install:
sudo pacman -U bcompare-5.0.0.28983-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst bcompare-kde5-5.0.0.28983-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
when I run 'bcompare' I get the trial pop-up dialog with an error:

I did remove both the bcompare and bcompare5 directories. I've noticed that after emptying .config/bcompare5, running 'bcompare' doesn't create anything in that directory.
However, when I manually install to my home directory and run the bcompare bin from there, it does populate it properly.
So possibly the bcompare from the pkgbuild isn't able to access the .config/ directory, or has a wrong prefix or something?

@bakgwailo, thanks for your feedback.
I'm using KDE Plasma. I tried with version 5 and recently with version 6 and it works well with both. I cannot guess what your issue is given the little info you provided. Please share as much info as you can to see if figure out what's going on. As a suggestion, please try removing or renaming your existing
~/.config/bcompare
folder. BC5 creates a new~/.config/bcompare5
folder. If you have it, please delete it too and try again with a clean environment.I hope it helps!

@Musikolo
thank you for the 5 beta option. After getting the package built, though, it pops up the trial nag screen saying that the trial information is missing or corrupt. Manual install using the install script works, so maybe the package build is missing some file copying or something

For those interested in trying out Beyond Compare 5 Beta, a new file named
PKGBUILD_BC5_BETA
has been added. To use it, just issue the following command line:NOTE: Please DO NOT flag this package for new beta releases.

Beyond Compare 5 is in beta, it would be cool to have a PKGBUILD for it in anticipation of its release

Ok, solved. I had to restart dolphin.
There was an old bcompare entry. that did not work. any idea how to remove this entry?
Could you please add the following directions to Tools/options: Tools/options/startup - and restart dolphin.
thank you very much.
