I don't use this package either, but will maintain it for a little while.

  • The executable is now fully lowercase forkgram
  • Package should now be installable alongside extra/telegram-desktop

If you have problems with this package:

  • Try building in a clean chroot. This rules out local config problems.
  • Flag for simple, straightforward issues, like typos, depends, updates, etc. Include relevant errors and other info in the flag message.
  • Comment for issues that require explanation or debugging. Use a pastebin for blocks of text more than a few lines.

Conflicts on telegram-desktop needs to be put back. Attempting to install after building in clean chroot:

Maybe it makes sense to rename /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.telegram.desktop.service to /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.forkgram.desktop.service and /usr/share/icons/hicolor/symbolic/apps/telegram-symbolic.svg to /usr/share/icons/hicolor/symbolic/apps/forkgram-symbolic.svg, and change the references in the code accordingly?
(After all, the logo is different anyway.)

If not, then it maybe would make sense to make this a drop-in replacement for telegram-desktop, providing a symlink to the same executable name as telegram-desktop and same other services (if any) and shared libraries (if any), and after doing so adding telegram-desktop=${pkgver} to the provides entry?

@dreieck Makes sense, I'll remove the conflicts array.

Why does this conflict with telegram-desktop?

The executable is /usr/bin/Forkgram, not /usr/bin/telegram-desktop.

Regards!

@archkde_combo please use 'flag out of date' instead of commenting for that

I have caught missing deps:

Program mm-common-get found: NO
Message: Maintainer mode requires the 'mm-common-get' command. If it is not found,
install the 'mm-common' package, version 1.0.0 or higher.
Program mm-common-get found: NO

glibmm-2.77.0/meson.build:145:18: ERROR: Program 'mm-common-get' not found or not executable

and

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message):
  Could NOT find Boost (missing: Boost_INCLUDE_DIR program_options) (Required
  is at least version "1.58")
  1. extra/mm-common
  2. extra/boost
  3. fmtlib.net aka extra/fmt
  4. extra/gobject-introspection due to g-ir-scanner - at cmake/external/glib/generate_gir.cmake:8

I can confirm that installing these allows the build process to begin. I'm updating from 4.6.2-2. To cut it short, going forward keep a look at extra/telegram-desktop it seems to have the deps up to date.

Finally the build errors with this (if I read it correctly) ...frk-v4.9-full/Telegram/lib_ui/ui/platform/ui_platform_window_title.cpp:325:27: note: candidate expects 1 argument, 2 provided

Checking telegram-desktop-dev package, Giovanni resolved the glibmm "issue":

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=telegram-desktop-dev

I've just merged its changes to my own forkgram private repo and it works. I've pushed my PKGBUILD here:
