Hello, φίλε. Thank you for this package; it has always worked perfectly for me― zero issues (I just need to create an AppArmor profile, but this is for my setup). I just wanted to note that the current upstream release is 4.7.2, while this package is at 4.5.2. When you have a moment, please consider updating it, for the newer release contains important fixes. Installing from the AUR takes only a few seconds and we all prefer to do so. All the best.

I hope this is helpful to fellow classicists. :)

The source for this package can be installed by Pacman directly. This AUR package simply moves the diogenes application directory to /opt, which I consider a more appropriate location than /usr/local (this is simply a personal preference), and replaces the bundled libglvnd files with system ones (which anyone running a graphical environment should already have installed).

This package does not install the database files required to make this program very useful. Since they can be difficult to find, feel free to email me if you need assistance finding them.
