@Speedy_Lex thanks for the catch, I pushed an update that should resolve it just now

The package is currently broken.

cinny: error while loading shared libraries: libwebkit2gtk-4.1.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

There is a webkit2gtk-4.1 that should probably be depended on instead of webkit2gtk

Seems to be unsupported on wayland.

Thanks a lot @MisterPine, fixed.

ldd tells me that it doesn't require openssl-1.1 anymore but links against libssl.so.3 and libcrypto.so.3

@Porkepix Upstream is still missing the linux binary with version 4.7.0, we'll have to wait until they fix it.

I have the same problem as @chrisqq and the truth is that I can't think of a solution. I have tried to recompile the non-binary version of the package and the bug is the same.

Update: I just open an issue in upstream.

Update 2: It seems that the problem with the application going blank comes from webkit2gtk 2.42. A workaround is to start the program with the WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 variable set. The following can be done to modify the desktop launcher as long as it is not fixed in the upstream.

mkdir -p $HOME/.local/share/applications
cp /usr/share/applications/cinny.desktop $HOME/.local/share/applications
vim $HOME/.local/share/applications/cinny.desktop

And modify the Exec line to look like this:

Exec=env WEBKIT_DISABLE_COMPOSITING_MODE=1 /usr/bin/cinny

Update 3: With version 3.0.0 the problem is solved.

I ran a system update and now cinny opens to white screen. Any suggestions on how to fix?

@samsapti thanks for letting me know, apparently they re-released the 2.2.3 release after I had updated the PKGBUILD. I've updated the checksums to this new release.
