Arch Linux User Repository

This is not the good link, author abandoned the project 6 years ago. Instead the fork https://github.com/dvershinin/green-recorder/blob/master/recorder/recorder.py#L134 is used. This still fail 3 years later.

The current path of the file is /usr/share/green-recorder/ui.glade Not sure about the python syntax, the else is not at the same indentation than the if, but instead at the for level, not sure it is correct. I tried to put it at the same level. this error is not more here, but there is a bunch of errors about non-existing function.

Same error as https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/green-recorder#comment-878940 here

On an X11 install (perhaps Wayland too) this currently fails with: "Did not find ui.glade. Tried" (no lines follow)

This error is from https://github.com/mhsabbagh/green-recorder/blob/master/green-recorder#L343

The files the source claims to try and load are present on my system - I've not investigated further to see why this is failing in this way.

@manja2 try green-recorder-git if have this problem too, then fill a bug upstream

Just tried this. It has an issue that it continues to record forever, despite me pressing the stop button. Happened with all file formats.

The fork used for this package is active, and the package builds and installs.

It does not seem to work for Sway/Wayland, though. I assume it will only work under GNOME. I get:

GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ChildExited: Process org.gnome.Shell.Screencast exited with status 1 (25)

The maintainer does not officially support this anymore. Maybe use an active fork https://github.com/mhsabbagh/green-recorder ?

No, python2-pydbus is not the same as python2-dbus. python2-pydbus was just removed from the official repositories.

I think python2-pydbus has been renamed to python2-dbus.

found python2-pydbus in archive https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/p/python2-pydbus/
