Arch Linux User Repository

I'm getting segfaults when running in wayland:

(io.ente.auth:3343546): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 08:06:18.796: ../gtk/gdk/wayland/gdkdisplay-wayland.c:1353: Truncating shared memory file failed: Invalid argument
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

@escape0707 Thank you very much! I’ve implemented your change in the latest update (v4.1.0).

Note: upstream changed the binary name from ente_auth to enteauth

@alessandroberna Thank you for your work.

A small suggestion according to GNOME_package_guidelines: you could remove your current .install file now, and the symlink creation for the binary file can be moved into package() so that this symlink is also managed by pacman and deleted upon uninstalling.

Example patch:

@crablike43 You're not incorrect at all—that's one of the reasons I was hesitant to make this older version of libsodium a dependency.

The way I see it, the potential options are:

• Finding a reputable source that provides a prebuilt libsodium-1.0.18 binary (maybe the Ubuntu repos?) and using that to create a libsodium-1.0.18-bin package on the AUR. This would allow users to choose between a precompiled version and compiling from source at install time when using an AUR helper.

• The ente devs were interested in providing a binary build for archlinux. Currently, their build expects to find libsodium.so.23, provided by the aforementioned version of libsodium, which is not available in the standard Arch repos. If this issue is reported to them, and they are still interested in providing an Arch build, they could compile it against libsodium.so.26 (the version provided in the Arch repos), which would resolve this whole issue.

Unfortunately, I don’t have the time to explore either of these options myself. However, if anyone looks into either of these, I’ll update the PKGBUILD as needed. (Although with the first option, if the provides= field is set correctly on libsodium-1.0.18-bin, no changes might be needed in this PKGBUILD.)

Note that in the current version, which requires libsodium to be built from source, libsodium only gets compiled during the first install (and not with each update of ente-auth), as it's provided by a different package. These considerations are aimed at preventing this package from requiring any compilation from source.

Any way to have this package also utilize a libsodium binary as well? Maybe i'm incorrect for thinking this way, please let me know, but I typically choose binary packages so that I don't have to compile things whenever I update them. thanks for the package.

Hello! This package went through two quick releases and now on 4.0.2

@theo01 good catch!

it may be a good idea to report this upstream as well; the .deb release uses the same incorrectly-sized icons

Here is a version which fixes the incorrect icon size https://github.com/TheoBrigitte/ente-auth-bin

The current 128x128 and 256x256 icons have a size of 1024x1024 I fixed those by using : magick ente_auth.png -resize 128x128 icons/hicolor/128x128/apps/ente_auth.png magick ente_auth.png -resize 256x256 icons/hicolor/256x256/apps/ente_auth.png

Upgrading from versions v2.0.50-v3.0.17 (inclusive) to v3.1.1 (or newer) will require manual intervention. Please EITHER

• run [ "$(readlink /usr/lib/libsodium.so.23)" = "/usr/lib/libsodium.so" ] && sudo rm /usr/lib/libsodium.so.23 in a terminal before upgrading.
• uninstall ente-auth-bin and only then install the new version

This is needed because the symlink created in the previous version of this package will conflict with the file provided by the package libsodium-1.0.18 which is now a dependency. If such symlink is not removed, pacman will throw the following error:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
libsodium-1.0.18: /usr/lib/libsodium.so.23 exists in filesystem

There is no way for me to make this seamless as every AUR helper will first install the package dependencies and then execute the commands in the PKGBUILD. This means that there is no way for me to reliably remove that symlink before libsodium-1.0.18 gets installed.

Good news is, now this should use the right version of the libsodium library, @yochananmarqos i hope this works for you now.

@nktnet thank you, added xdg-user-dirs as a dependency

@windy done, now the upsteam URL should point to the right release

For the error

ERROR:flutter/runtime/dart_vm_initializer.cc(41)] Unhandled Exception: PlatformException(Libsecret error, Failed to unlock the keyring, null, null

See this issue: - https://github.com/ente-io/ente/issues/2046

In short, install xdg-user-dirs, e.g.

yay -S xdg-user-dirs
