Arch Linux User Repository

Builds but won't start, even with yan12125's line added to the PKGBUILD.

yan12125: Thanks for the info! Very interesting; I have that file (and it's not a symlink) so I wonder how it got lost for you. I want to look into this more before I add that symlink to the package since I'm worried that could have side effects later.

I got an issue after upgrading to 1.4.3

$ insync start --no-daemon
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 6, in <module>
  File "__main__.py", line 128, in <module>
  File "__main__insync__.py", line 116, in <module>
  File "isyncd/linux/headless/cli.py", line 49, in run
  File "__main__insync__.py", line 25, in main

  File "PySide/QtGui.py", line 17, in _bbfreeze_import_dynamic_module
ImportError: /usr/lib/insync/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined symbol: FT_Done_MM_Var

I "fixed" this by adding the following line after the libfontconfig line in PKGBUILD

ln -sf "/usr/lib/libfreetype.so.6" "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/insync/libfreetype.so.6"

Well, waddya know. At long last, here's 1.4! Seems to have just been a drop-in, but let me know if anything is weird.

I've added sni-qt as an optional dependency for the system tray icon. I'm willing to make it required, but since the tray icon works for me without it, there might be more details there so I don't want to commit just yet.

I also updated the PKGBUILD so that the tar call is not verbose. It saves a little bit of time when untarring the package so it's not taking the time to write to the console.

RE: 1.4. Sweet! I'll start working on updating the package to it. Hopefully, it's just a drop-in replacement and everything will "just work".

Regarding the missing icon I can confirm that installing sni-qt package and restarting my PC made the insync icon to appear. I am using Gnome Desktop version 3.26.2.

Please, update. Thanks in advance!

1.4 has been officially released now. @thenaterhood according to https://forums.insynchq.com/t/faq-on-prime-plan/8280 all @gmail accounts were given a free upgrade to Prime (all others (@gapps/3rd party) receive a 30% discount).

Installing sni-qt worked for me when using Gnome and not having a tray icon.

Thank you for your work on this package @thenaterhood - appreciate it may be a while before you can make 1.4 available in the AUR (it's beyond my skills)

@yochaigal: I don't have sni-qt installed, and my tray icon works. I'm willing to add sni-qt as an optional dependency once I can confirm that it's required on QT-based environments, since it appears it's not required on GTK ones.

@dahankzter: I'm not sure what you're experiencing. The package takes several minutes to build on a reasonably modern system (i5, 12GB ram, SSD in my case) which is not uncommon for AUR packages. The resulting package is around 200MB, which is a little on the large side for pacman packages, but should install in a reasonable amount of time (couple minutes, depending on the speed of your disk - it's a large number of files). The short answer, I suppose, is "yes it is supposed to take several minutes". There isn't much I can do to improve on that, other than make the decompression not print to the console which might save a minute or so in the build.
