Thanks again! Can confirm it works fine with python-sipsimple 3.1 and latest qt4 packages too

@wlp7s0 Yes, the PKGBUILD in pastebin http://pastebin.com/85sRLNLA

Thanks a lot ogarcia for updating the package. Can you please also provide another source to PKGBUILD file because I have over quota error from sprunge.su

Thank you ogarcia, I can confirm it's working fine with sipsimple 3.1.0.

OK. I have the update. Take note that new package depends of updated python-sipsimple 3.1.0, and, at this moment, the python-sipsimple package is not updated in AUR. In meantime, please pick this PKGBUILD http://sprunge.us/XHTY to update python-sipsimple BEFORE update blink. Pastebin mirror http://pastebin.com/85sRLNLA of PKGBUILD. NOTE: After qt5 5.8 update you must rebuild ALL AUR dependencies of blink and blink itself to avoid "mix incompatible Qt library" issue.

@theforeigner Hi, sorry for delay. I do several test yesterday about udate blink to 3.0.1 but it fails with some errors. I'll work on it to update pkgbuild this afternoon. Stay tuned!

Woohoo! I got Blink 3.0.1 running by installing it and all the dependencies manually. python-sipsimple 3.1 installed by just altering the PKGBUILD. I'm no arch guru nor anyway near a pro, so I downloaded the Blink 3.0.1 zip manually from github. Then I proceeded to manually build and install the python files. I also had to install python2-pyqt5 and python2-google-api-python-client to get it running. And there's the irritating bug when using any GTK based DE that prevents the Blink tray icon to be displaying, to which I used the "dbus-launch blink" workaround to get it back. ...but it works! I hope all this is some help to you, ogarcia. Once again, I apologize for not knowing my way around Arch Linux in general and PKGBUILD in particular and that these few pointers is all I can offer.

@ogarcia: Is there any possibility you could upgrade this package to blink 3.0.1? I believe it fixes the recent errors that occur with newer python/qt4 version. On the other hand, it relies on a newer python-sipsimple 3.1.0, which could mean a great deal of work involved: http://devel.ag-projects.com/repositories/blink-qt/debian/changelog
