This package is based on my Qt WebEngine pull request (Upstream URL). The upstream master branch is pulled in by default. A comment in the PKGBUILD advises what to do if merging upstream master fails.

If you wish to include a fix or a feature from some of my other pull requests, uncomment and possibly modify one or more of the _pull_we lines in the PKGBUILD.

Damn... Just realized I can't compile it on a fresh install of Artix Linux :(

I get lots of lines like these:

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libQt5WebEngineCore.so: undefined reference to `icu_76::Normalizer::normalize(icu_76::UnicodeString const&, UNormalizationMode, int, icu_76::UnicodeString&, UErrorCode&)'
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libQt5WebEngineCore.so: undefined reference to `ucnv_open_76'
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libQt5WebEngineCore.so: undefined reference to `icu_76::UnicodeString::UnicodeString(char16_t const*, int)'
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/libQt5WebEngineCore.so: undefined reference to `uloc_openAvailableByType_76'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [Makefile:807: goldendict] Error 1

    Aborting...

Arch and its derivatives have dropped qt5-webengine :(

This package also can't build with ffmpeg 7.0 like the original goldendict. Applying the same patch also fix the building problem.

@vedg Yes, thank you. I've also slimmed it down to the minimum since I don't need Chinese support, audio etc. Just couldn't figure out what dependencies could be dropped and what compilation options I needed to get rid of unnecessary stuff. Now it's fine.

vedg commented on 2024-05-23 14:01 (UTC)

@vedg Can we somehow drop this libeb package from the deps and compile it without CD-ROM books support?

I keep this package as close as possible to https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/goldendict-git. If that package removes a dependency, I'll probably do so too.

@xiota Thank you. It turns out I've been using this option already. Just forgot to remove it from the 'depends' section.

For those having trouble with libeb, try editing the PKGBUILD with "CONFIG+=no_epwing_support" (based on info in the readme).

@doctorcolossus libeb is no longer maintained and is dropped from Arch repos. You should compile it from AUR now. All other dependencies are present. That's why.

@TheExplorer, thank you, but the libeb dependency is missing because it failed to build due to the build error which is (clearly :P) shown in the log I gave. I guess that you have not run into this problem. I'll go ask in the libeb package comments.

edit: A patch to fix this build error can be found in the libeb package comments. I don't have time to try it now myself, but I hope this information will help the next person.
