Awesome, thank you for the fixes and updating the PKGBUILD!

Current package doesn't load the systray icon correctly.

We might want to simplify the PKGBUILD so that the AppImage isn't ripped apart.

    # Make the AppImage executable

    # Extract the AppImage
    "./$_appimage" --appimage-extract

    # Update the Exec line in the desktop entry file and fix the icon.
    sed -i -E "s:Exec=AppRun:Exec=/opt/${_pkgname}/${_appimage}:" "squashfs-root/${_pkgid}.desktop"
    sed -i -E "s:StartupWMClass=Chatbox:StartupWMClass=${_pkgid}:" "squashfs-root/${_pkgid}.desktop"

package() {
    # Install the AppImage and create a symlink
    install -Dpm755 "${_appimage}" "${pkgdir}/opt/${_pkgname}/${_appimage}"
    install -dm755 "${pkgdir}/usr/bin"
    ln -s "/opt/${_pkgname}/${_appimage}" "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/${_pkgname}"

    # Install the desktop entry file
    install -Dm644 "${srcdir}/squashfs-root/${_pkgid}.desktop" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/${_pkgid}.desktop"

    # Install the icon
    install -dm755 "${pkgdir}/usr/share/pixmaps/"
    cp --no-preserve=mode,ownership "${srcdir}/squashfs-root/${_pkgid}.png" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/pixmaps/${_pkgid}.png"
}

This updated PKGBUILD would just use the AppImage, be easier to maintain, and fix the system tray issue.

Some deps might not detected by namcap (dlopen-ed?). Can you pacman -F dropped libs and add keeping Electron package guidelines? (sorry. I missed).

@yangtsesu Thank you for bringing this to my attention. I inherited the package but failed to check properly the license field. As I did not find a license file in the distributed binary, I contacted the developer and will update the license as soon as this situation is cleared up.

yangtsesu commented on 2025-02-11 01:14 (UTC)

The community edition of Chatbox is licensed under GPLv3, the binary version available for download from the official website is commercial software.

nezu commented on 2024-04-19 08:02 (UTC)

Why does this package include /usr/lib/libindicator.so.7? this file should be provided by libindicator-gtk2
