Disowning as upstream has stopped maintaining this and I'm not interested in chasing QT5 dependencies. Personally I use and recommend Neovide anyway from official Arch repos as a better UI experience.

Please include libtiff5 as a dependency, as goneovim requires libtiff.so.5 and doesn't start with it.
Just libtiff provides only libtiff.so.6.

The dependency on postgresql-libs seems unnecessary, as goneovim doesn't seem to actually need it.

Note, goneovim now provides it's own Desktop file. Can you use that instead? (It registers mime types, and hopefully also fixes the category issue below)

Please fix the .desktop file. On Plasma the application is only at the Lost & Found category, which is very annoying and confusing, which proves that the Categories=Application; line is clearly wrong. I think Categories=TextEditor;Development; would be the best choice instead.

And having also these lines in the .desktop file would be very convenient:

GenericName=smth like "Advanced Vim Text Editor" (aka description, shorter Comment)
Keywords=text;editor;syntax;
MimeType=text/english;text/plain;text/x-makefile;text/x-chdr;text/x-csrc;text/x-c++hdr;text/x-c++src;text/x-java;text/x-dsrc;text/x-moc;text/x-pascal;text/x-tcl;text/x-tex;application/x-shellscript;text/x-c;text/x-c++;text/x-perl;text/x-python;application/x-php;application/x-httpd-php3;application/x-httpd-php4;application/x-httpd-php5;application/xml;text/html;text/css;text/x-sql;text/x-diff;

PS: Also I'd like to point out that the Version=1.0 line seems really unnecessary (and confusing) because a very little percent of applications have such line:

 remorin@archsys@pts/2 ~ $ cat /usr/share/applications/* | grep "Version=1.0" | wc -l
27
 remorin@archsys@pts/2 ~ $ cat /usr/share/applications/* | grep "Version" | wc -l
37
 remorin@archsys@pts/2 ~ $ ls /usr/share/applications/* | wc -l
393

Nope @behonest using nightlies or VCS builds is not appropriate for a stable versioned package like this one.

behonest commented on 2022-03-28 08:57 (UTC)

@alerque Thanks. Perhaps we might use Nightly builds? https://github.com/akiyosi/goneovim/releases/tag/nightly. There is this https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/goneovim-git, but I wanted to avoid building it locally so that not to install GO, etc.

alerque commented on 2022-02-22 20:19 (UTC)

@behonest We update this package when upstream releases a new version. They have not done so yet in spite of the wording of that message. The master branch has been updated but they haven't made a new release yet.

behonest commented on 2022-02-19 13:19 (UTC)

Thanks for maintaining this package. When do we update it? I'm seen this bug: https://github.com/akiyosi/goneovim/issues/314#issuecomment-1024480290

behonest commented on 2022-01-22 12:43 (UTC)

@alerque Thanks! It works now
