Thanks for the heads up @MarsSeed!

do you have any interest in uploading a stable version of this package?

@Rhinoceros, someone already did: goldendict. :)

@jelangkung This is what the upstream is working on. Or you can use goldendict-ng instead.

can qt5-webkit be replaced with python-pyqt5-webengine because it takes forever to compile it and it's already dropped from the official repo?

It looks like upstream has finally tagged a new version after 7 years! @aksr (or others) do you have any interest in uploading a stable version of this package?

@lfajtak Errors like that indicate that you need a rebuild. Btw the version also matters, libavutil.so.57 indicates ffmpeg 5 but ffmpeg in the repos is at version 6 now, so a rebuild should link it against the new version

I get the error goldendict: error while loading shared libraries: libavutil.so.57: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory even though I have ffmpeg4.4 installed (which should provide libavutil.so=56-64). Any ideas?

For the avoidance of doubt, I know full well what conflicts keyword does, I have wrote PKGBUILDs before, @eclairevoyant please do not assume people are an idiot because they are asking a question, it is offensive and rude.

@Rhinoceros thanks for clearing up the state of this software, maybe my questions originally was not clear but this is what I wanted to know. I did not see why "conflicts" existed when the package did not have any release tagged package, not because I had no clue what it did!

Rhinoceros commented on 2023-03-02 21:22 (UTC)

@PolarianDev Each of four packages provides different variants of goldendict, based on an older qt version, pull request, or fork. They are not duplicates of each other; presumably at least one person prefers installing each in specific situations.

This package here conflicts with goldendict, which is simpler than listing every single variant. There was once a stable goldendict in the AUR, and might be in the future. If you think it should exist, please upload it. Upstream hasn't tagged a release in seven years, so I personally wouldn't use it.

If you have questions about packaging standards please raise them on irc/forums/mailing lists/reddit. I don't think this is the correct place for this. I can't reply further to someone who is refusing to read the extensive documentation that Arch contributors have written for all of us.
