0.9.35-2 does not work well with the kde 4.10 upgrade: the tray-icon fails to show up. According to the insync forums, there is a newer version out that works.

@HarD: Thanks for pointing out the typo. PKGBUILD has been corrected :-P

# 3 --> KDE (dophin) ---> dolphin

@lava As I said, mono can be removed (pacman -Qdt or something like that) when libappindicator3 has been compiled. It doesn't affect anything. Insync is originally an ubuntu stuff (only deb packages are available for the early version) and that is the reason why it depends on some packages which are not natively supported by archlinux. Also there is no source code available for insync as it is not an open-source software. If you really want to get rid of libappindicator3, you can post your request to the official supporting forum [1] on which the developers of insync will check frequently. No, I am not a developer at all. [1]: https://forums.insynchq.com/discussion/1665/insync-for-linux-beta14-0-9-33

@xzy3186: Thanks for the explanations. As I understand, you are not a deeloper of Insync? I just tried to install the package from AUR in auto-mode (packer) and can say, I don't like what I get: http://imgur.com/DVwDGkx. The application itself is working OK, but this icon for me is not an advantage at all. I understand, this is GTK3 and the world goes on, but for me insync breaks an ability to use any automated AUR-updater because it will bring mono (more than 100M) and this auful icon...

Nice - just updated and will come back with any observations. Thanks for your time and efforts :D

@satanselbow: I updated the PKGBUILD which will drop nautilus dependency if it is not detected as running. Please let me know if this new PKGBUILD will generate any trouble for your case.

@lava: The reason my PKGBUILD call it "DE-selection" is to make it consistent with the official website [1]. However, if you really look into the packages (deb or rpm whatever) of insync for different DE (here I am only talking about xfce and mate), the only difference is binding to different FMs (thunar or caja). That's why I say FM are more important for the cases of _DESKTOP=4 and 5. For gnome-shell/cinnamon/KDE, the situations are bit different as there are also integrations of gnome-shell-extension/cinnamon-applet/KDE-plasmoid. For those three DEs it is difficult to separate FM dependencies from DE dependencies. This way of sorting packages is not determined by me but developers of insync. Also, if you don't like the way of DE-detection in PKGBUILD, you can select it by hand which automatically disable the auto-detection part. 'Mono' is just a makedepend for 'libappindicator3' which means you can delete it whenever you want as long as libappindicator3 has been compiled. Function of insync will be break if libappindicator3 is not installed. That's why it is a dependency but not a optional-dependency. As most of the contents in the package are the same for different versions ('/usr/lib/insync'), it is not wise to split the package into severals as all of them will be conflict with each other and maintaining so many similar packages separately is quite troublesome.

Thanks for your response ;) The infinite combinations of DE / filemanager / dependencies does look like a headache in this case ;) I'm still tweaking options for my particular case - will let you know if I come up with anything more useful :D

lava commented on 2013-01-18 11:15 (UTC)

@xzy3186: Can't agree. Your PKGBUILD does detect DEs, not FMs, which users use. Gnome-users can use thunar, for example. Maybe, the best idea here would be to drop auto-detection and separate one PKGBUILD into several. Then this will not confuse the user. User will be able to select the one he need. Also it would be possible to install AUR-package with automated packagers as yaourt or packer. On the subject of 'libappindicator3': This package require lots of other packages including 'mono'. I do not expect this to be integrated in my GTK2 environment, which is built in the terms of simplicity smoothly. Of course, this is my personal dislike, but is there really no way to support systray without this package? Anyway, I've compiled package without this library at all and it works fine for me (without icon, but syncing stuff), so maybe it could be moved to the 'recommended' section as optional requirement to provide systray? Because I didn't know why it is needed until your explanation.
