Arch Linux User Repository

I didn't dig in, but the plugin scan failed when I use this AUR build. But it can scan if I compile it manually with the guidance from the PKGBUILD:

git clone git@github.com:helio-fm/helio-sequencer.git
cd helio-sequencer.git
git submodule update --init --recursive
cd Projects/LinuxMakefile
make -j
build/helio

Start GUI and scan:

A tarball can be obtained, instead of cloning whole git for a numbered release: https://github.com/helio-fm/helio-sequencer/archive/refs/tags/3.14.tar.gz

The tarball is incomplete, it lacks hopscotchmap and juce toolkit. It won't build without them, and trying to naively symlink the system ones didn't work either back when I tested (approx 1 year ago ) since the juce config didn't work with a newer lib version in arch.

Why for is this package called helio-workstation?

because that's how the project was called when this package was created, opening https://github.com/helio-fm/helio-workstation still works and redirects to https://github.com/helio-fm/helio-sequencer, I guess I should ask for a rename when I have a bit more mental energy

Why for is this package called helio-workstation? The site is Helio and the github helio-sequencer?

They have renamed the source repo and was referenced as Helio Workstation in the past, on repology naming is splitted among helio and helio-workstation https://repology.org/project/helio/versions
