This package will automatically retrieve and build the latest development snapshot of Guitarix from git.

It does not need to be updated on every release, so please do not flag out of date unless the build itself breaks or in case of an actual packaging issue.

If you are looking for the latest official release instead, see https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/guitarix2/

Gents, it looks like there's some trouble ahead, possibly related to an ffmpeg or gcc update: https://linuxmusicians.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=17329&p=83295#p83295 In case you notice unexpected sound changes with the latest builds, edit the pkgbuild and replace "--convolver-ffmpeg" with "--includeconvolver" (to bypass the Arch ffmpeg package). The AUR pkgbuild might be updated accordingly once we know more.

@SpotlightKid: Thanks for the heads up, I'll update shortly.

I seems the '--no-webkit' waf configure flag has been removed again already.

Hi Ralf, thanks for following up upstream, I was away for a few days. The pkgbuild is now updated to explictly disable webkit with the "--no-webkit" flag even if webkitgtk2 is found on the system. This should clear security concerns. Not being able to download online presets from within guitarix is indeed an acceptable tradeoff until Hermann decides on a long term fix. BR, LX

Upstream added a "--no-webkit" configuration flag. If you should insist in a hared dependency against webkitgtk2, at least consider to add a commented out "--no-webkit" option. Unfortunately making it an optional dependency, still would require to make it a build dependency ;). Uncommenting the webkit flag still would require to remove it manually from the dependency list, but the commented out option at least would call attention.

Hi, for testing purpose, could you please remove webkitgtk2 from the PKGBUILD, perhaps completely or by changing it to webkit2gtk? I can't test it, since one of my packages requires webkitgtk2 [1]. However, the official guitarix2 PKGBUILD from the "extra" repository doesn't mention webkit at all, see my post at https://sourceforge.net/p/guitarix/bugs/39/ . My guess is that migrating to webkit2gtk doesn't work, but likely removing webkitgtk2 is automatically noticed by the configuration check, to build without webkit.
