Arch Linux User Repository

I needed 12.6.0 and forced it to install quite violently. I've flashed and debugged an MSP432 after the install. The steps that I believe were absolutely required are as follows:

• In PKGBUILD remove --mode unattended from the ....run and comment out the line containing dmed
• Run makepkg
• Follow steps in the installer
• When the DMED failure shows up (at like 98%) overwrite /tmp/ccs_[tab]DMED/ti_cgt_dmed_1.1.6_linux_installer_x86.bin with:

#!/bin/sh
exit 0

• Click Retry
• Once installed, run execstack -c /opt/ccstudio/ccs/ccs_base/common/bin/libMiniDump.so

I personally also had to or extraneously did the following:

• move the desktop file manually
• comment out the two lines containing 99-ti-jlink.rules
• place git repository deeper in file system to avoid the over 40 character path

Same problem (CS_ERROR: Unable to install executable) here.

Lines immediately prior to error message of previous comment in ccs_install_12.8.0.00012.log are:

This stopped working after an update. /opt/ccstudio/ccs/eclipse/../ccs_base/common/bin/libMiniDump.so: cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Invalid argument I cannot reinstall it either.

Running execstack -c /opt/ccstudio/ccs/eclipse/../ccs_base/common/bin/libMiniDump.so makes the old install work again.

ccs has a 20.0.0 rewritten in theia. Can we have it on AUR?

Is the gconf depedency still necessary? A comment from 2020 says that it's not, and after using pacman -Rdd gconf to forcibly remove it from my system ccstudio still launches and doesn't seem to have any issues. This comment on the gconf package implies it's probably just a leftover dependency from chromium, and chromium removed the dependency back in 2010. The chromium version used in ccstudio on my machine, from ~/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform*/configuration/.jxbrowser.bin/7.29/chromium.version, is 108.0.5359.125, from 2022. Unless another part of ccstudio relies on the dependency, it seems to me that it should be removed.

Error initializing emulator: No USB FET was found with msp430f5529. Any ideas?

It seems that after adding normal user to ccstudio group, the X server will be not working. It can be reproduced stably. Removing the user from ccstudio group with a system reboot can fix it. Here are the logs:

I got it installed by unzipping the package it creates then running ccs_setup_12.2.0.0009.run

The problem is when you try to run ccstudio it bombs out with unable to load SLF4J.

this is the dump $# /home/user/ti/ccs1220/ccs/eclipse/ccstudio

It appears to need a dependency called libswt.

How the hell are you suppose to install it once the package is made ? The script does not generate a typical .pkg.tar.zst file for pacman to use.
