You can build the last version of Beyond Compare v4 I packaged (4.4.7.28397) by doing this:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/bcompare.git/
cd bcompare
git checkout dcf8794f1301c9213558b2583a956c04cf2a2135
makepkg -crs

Since you have a license for v4, you might be interested in looking at the upgrade policy at https://www.scootersoftware.com/kb/upgradepolicy .

I hope it helps!

Package updated: - Fixed "Trial information is corrupt" error - Removed lib32-qt package as no longer needed - Changed the build source from .deb to .tar.gz Enjoy!

I've only changed the requirements from "lib32-qt" to "lib32-qt4" in PKGBUILD file and everything is working fine! Regards!

Flagged as out of date as it requires lib32-qt, which is now lib32-qt4

I can confirm that flamusdiu's fix works for me.

For some reason the checksums between the tar.gz and the .deb files are different. For the AMD64.deb file I get the checksum: 927352a353c43dc1453828d909a92fb4 while for the tar.gz I get: 24a53347bb86e62bf002e4dbe82ed630. If you unpack the tar.gz file and cd into directory then run the following command: "sudo mv BCompare /usr/lib32/beyondcompare/" it fixes the issue. Not sure if possible to have this file put into the PKGBUILD tar.gz file.

The application does not start up and work normally - at least, not if you don't have a license and wanted to use a trial license. I tried a version that I installed from a tar.gz from the official website and it runs without this error appearing.

@phunni & @Mahara: Yes, I can confirm the "Trial information is corrupt" error is occurring, but I cannot do anything since we only have the binary program. The same program version didn't show this error before and I don't know what might be causing it now. Anyway, after displaying the error, the application starts up and works normally. I hope the problem is fixed upstream in the next release. Thanks for your notice. Regards.

Not to be a pain, but is there any progress on the "Trial information is corrupt" error?
