Hi @guiodic,

Feel free to report the bugs on https://github.com/CollaboraOnline/online/issues

Regards, Rashesh :)

edit: It seems AUR download the unpatched PKGBUILD. Now I try to change it on my local system

edit 2: It works after the fix.

Unfortunately, I have to say that the software is still a bit rough around the edges, but I hope it will improve in future releases.

Now I receive the same error of Foer

checking for Poco/Net/WebSocket.h... no configure: error: header Poco/Net/WebSocket.h not found; build the engine first (POCO is built there) or install a system POCO

Hi guiodic,

Thanks for the report. Looks like npm 12 dropped the support for npm-shrink package json. I added a temporary fix to aur package. Let me know if it resolves the issue for you. I will also report it to upstream.

Regards, Rashesh

Hi @foer,

I don't see the error. Besides poco is built in engine so it should be there in https://github.com/Rash419/collabora-core-assets/releases/download/cp-26.04.2-1/core-co-26.04-assets.tar.gz. Therefore, the dependency has been removed in latest update.

Regards, Rashesh

Hi @rash419 The build fails with:

checking for Poco/Net/WebSocket.h... no
configure: error: header Poco/Net/WebSocket.h not found; build the engine first (POCO is built there) or install a system POCO

It seems that a dependency is missing!

Hello everyone, Sorry for the delay. I have updated the package to 26.04 version. Let me know if you find any problems. Regards, Rashesh

Hi LFdev, I am aware of the transition. I will update the package ASAP. Regards, Rashesh

Hi, there. Thank you for maintaining the package. Development has moved to their own Gerrit server, and v26.04.1 was released already. Any chances of an update? You probably are aware of the Flathub manifest where you can get more info, right?

Also, maybe it was fixed in the newer version, but here with v25.04 I see an yellow block over the mouse cursor when opening spreadsheets, and the dark theme is completely messed up. Running the app from the terminal shows (DE = GNOME):
