@invidian: it fails as hexhu describes when you build in isolated environment in chroot, e.g. install devtools package and run extra-x86_64-build.

I would suggest avoid using relative paths and just use ${srcdir} in place of ../../

@biker The link is correct. We build multiple packages using single repository, as the source of both packages is the same.

@gbc921 did you try loading v4l2loopback or v4l2loopback-dc kernel module? Because the former is indeed provided by "v4l2loopback-dkms" package and the latter is provided by "v4l2loopback-dc-dkms".

@hexhu I've tried building the package in Arch Linux Docker image (Dockerfile in this package repository) and things work just fine. How do you invoke package building so you hit this issue?

Getting

==> Starting package_droidcam()...
/dev/shm/makepkg/droidcam/src/droidcam-1.7 /dev/shm/makepkg/droidcam/src
install: cannot stat '../../droidcam.desktop': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package_droidcam().
    Aborting...

for 1:1.7-1.

Please change line 55-56 of PKGBUILD to

  install -Dm644 "../${pkgbase}.desktop" "$pkgdir/usr/share/applications/${pkgbase}.desktop"
  install -Dm644 "../${pkgbase}.conf" "${pkgdir}/etc/modules-load.d/${pkgbase}.conf"

as a fix.

Also v1.7.1 has just been released, which dropped 'appindicator' (systray icon) support.

On my system I had to install v4l2loopback-dkms as well to be able to load the module. Not sure it is due to using linux-lts.

Is this true for anybody else?

Would expect "Git Clone URL" linking to "https://aur.archlinux.org/v4l2loopback-dc-dkms.git instead of "https://aur.archlinux.org/droidcam.git"!?

Hey @madskjeldgaard. libappindicator is marked as optional, as you may run Droidcam from CLI only. Maybe it would make sense to create a droidcam-cli or droidcam-gtk packages...

madskjeldgaard commented on 2020-12-13 10:09 (UTC)

should libappindicator be a non-optional dependency? I tried running without it and got errors so I think it is required.

Thanks!
