Arch Linux User Repository

For the time being, since the rust/cargo dependency is broken. I went ahead and adapted the PKGBUILD to work for the RPM file. Feel free to use:

# Maintainer: Craig McLure <craig@mclure.net>
pkgname=goxlr-utility
pkgver=1.1.1
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A utility for monitoring and controlling a TC-Helicon GoXLR or GoXLR Mini."
arch=('x86_64')
url="https://github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxlr-utility"
license=('MIT' 'custom')
depends=('libusb' 'bzip2' 'libpulse' 'speech-dispatcher')
source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.rpm::https://github.com/GoXLR-on-Linux/goxlr-utility/releases/download/v1.1.1/goxlr-utility-1.1.1-1.x86_64.rpm")
noextract=("$pkgname-$pkgver.rpm")
sha512sums=('SKIP')

build() {
    cd "${srcdir}"
    rpmextract.sh "${srcdir}/goxlr-utility-${pkgver}.rpm"
}

package() {
    mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr"
    cd "${srcdir}/usr"
    cp -r * "${pkgdir}/usr/"
}

*Fixed to actually have the correct URL now (if you plan to use this for more than 1 update, please change it to use the pkg variables instead of a 1:1 link)

It looks like the latest release of rust has broken a dependency of a dependency, so it's not entirely straight forward to fix, the easiest way to solve it for now would be to run:

rustup default 1.79.0

Then attempt to install the package again. I'll try and get this fixed as soon as possible.

Seems like installation is not working? Tried two different systems, getting the error on both (trying to install goxlr-utility with yay)

Thanks for the heads up, looks like rust 1.77 changed the format of the package_id in the JSON diagnostics, I suspect other rust packages may run into a similar problem (ripgrep-git has the same report).

I've pushed a fix for this (so we're release 2 now), and it should all work again.

I got this error, when installing:

==> Entering fakeroot environment...
==> Starting package()...
install: cannot stat '/goxlr-client.bash': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().
    Aborting...
error: failed to build 'goxlr-utility-1.0.6-1':
error: packages failed to build: goxlr-utility-1.0.6-1

1.0.5 requires the latest version of rust, so for compile errors run rustup update before attempting to install.

Thanks.

I get the following error when updating to the latest version:

I get this exact error (same file and line) 10 times, which is followed with:

==> ERROR: A failure occurred in check().

Not sure if this is just an issue with the package or if this should be reported upstream?

Thanks for the feedback!

In regards to the line out volume, the utility will load the same default profiles as the official app on windows (which does, unfortunately, include line out at 0%). With that being said, you should be able to change it to 100% and save the profile. The next time the profile is loaded on startup it'll restore the 100% value without the need of a separate script.

If that's not working, please open an issue on the GitHub page.

Thanks!

Not only does this fully replicate the functionality of the GoXLR within Linux, I've found that it works better than when I used it on Windows. The web config utility does everything the original GoXLR software does, and the equipment responds immediately to terminal commands.

One note for anyone who might be using this - Line-out volume is set to 0 at launch. If you're like me and use a speaker on the line out, or if you use it to feed audio to a two-system streaming setup, make sure you use: goxlr-client volume line-out 100 Or whatever volume you prefer. I have that in my desktop autostart script.
