I don't know how to reply to comments directly but sysconfig inquired about special characters so here's my two cents. It is due to the lack of fonts installed and accessible by the operating system.

I'm noticing that some characters which work fine in other applications are missing in this firestorm build. For example: ツ They would be displayed as empty boxes instead. Does anyone know how this could be fixed?

I believe this package need a little dependency cleanup.

I had been digging into the source code and noticed that gtk2 isn't used directly anymore. Instead they have they prebuilt version of fltk which loads it dynamicly if it's available, otherwise it uses it's on dialogs. So gtk2 could be made optional now I think.

dbus-glib also isn't used anymore. Instead they use the DBus functionality from a prebuilt glib. So it could be removed completely.

But I also noticed that libnotify is currently loaded dynamicly for desktop notifications. Maybe this could be added optional?

@neo the b2sum is correct for the version of Firestorm this PKGBUILD creates a package for. If you are getting a checksum failure, then you do not have the same file.

Kept getting 503 when it curls, so I downloaded the source file and uploaded the file to my g-drive. Of course, I got the b2sum error for it.

Validating source files with b2sums...

    view?usp=sharing ... FAILED

    firestorm.desktop ... Passed

    firestorm.launcher ... Passed

Is there any way to omit the first b2sum?

@aburke161 you need to update your system. glibc no longer has the older libcrypt library, hence the compatibility package as a dependency.

aburke161 commented on 2022-02-18 18:39 (UTC)

libxcrypt-compat conflicts with /usr/lib/libcrypt.so.1 owned by glibc, which tons of packages depend on so I'm not messing with it. Is there a resolution for this?

Installing libxcrypt-compat helps with the current issue.

firestorm stopped working for me after an update. The message i got: bin/do-not-directly-run-firestorm-bin: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

No idea where to look, anyone?

When trying to build firestorm-bin today, it failed because the dependency "gconf" could not be found. A search revealed that "gconf" no longer exists in the official repositories. Rather than building it from the AUR, I just removed it from firestorm-bin's PKGBUILD, and everything worked fine. Can we remove "gconf" as a dependency here, or is it still required on some systems?
