Arch Linux User Repository

Can you add git as dependency so we can build in chroot.

betterlockscreen@.service must be updated or preferably betterlockscreen@.service from betterlockscreen-4.0.3.tar.gz must be used in the PKGBUILD. See issue #227 https://github.com/betterlockscreen/betterlockscreen/issues/277. The type "forking" was changed to "simple".

I'm not sure if this is a problem specific to arch, but the systemd service has the following ExecStart line:

ExecStart=/usr/local/bin/betterlockscreen --lock

This is even outlined as a "hint" in the project page on GitHub. However, the PKGBUILD file installs the script to /usr/bin. I believe that at least one of these files should be edited to address this?

I am very sorry, gentlemen. I have been busy with work lately and just saw this information...

I just submitted the rebuild information in archlinuxcn/repo: https://github.com/archlinuxcn/repo/commit/68ed945c80a64001d02b83f386490104ce760e3e

Lilac Bot will update the package to the latest version soon.

if you want to fix it locally.

Is this package now orphaned. There have been several releases since February, but no updates. I am happy to take over maintaining the package if you no longer are able to.

I updated the PKGBUILD to version 3.1.1 and wrote a patch to get it running with recent changes of i3lock-color 2.13.c.3-1.

You can find the files under the following guist https://gist.github.com/danielgolf/3083ca53092ba24ae26fda135b6649f1

Hey, I want to move this to the official repos, are you cool with that?

This depends on xcb-util-xrm. Could you add this dependency?

Since the service files were installed in /lib/systemd/system, the installation files because of an ownership conflict of the /lib directory:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
betterlockscreen: /lib exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)

Installing to /usr/lib/systemd/system works for me

Can you move the service file to /lib/systemd/system/?

/etc/systemd/system/ is used for local system configurations, while packages should install their service files in /lib/systemd/system/.

This allows users to override the provided service file if needed.

See systemd.unit(5)

whoops, thanks @kylesferrazza

I made you a patch :)

You updated the version number to 3.0.1 but didn't update the md5sum.
