Everyone who struggles to update right now: Please install the jdk21-openjdk package. It provides java-environment=21.

@shmilee: I like that idea. Implemented in 5.5-2 using JABREF_OPTIONS as variable name.

Note that you can then also put that environment variable into your .bashrc, .pam_environment or something similar to be automatically applied.

How about add an extra JavaOptions variable in launch script /usr/bin/jabref like this?

............
--module-path ${ROOT}/lib \
${JABREF_EXT_Options} \
--patch-module .............

So we can add the -Djdk.gtk.version=2 flag or -Dglass.gtk.uiScale=144dpi flag by cmdline, no need to edit /usr/bin/jabref after upgrade.

JABREF_EXT_Options='-Dglass.gtk.uiScale=144dpi -Djdk.gtk.version=2' jabref

Using JabRef with i3wm, I’m running into the issue described at https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/issues/5867 in which clicking the menu bar sometimes opens then immediately closes the associated menu, rendering it unusable.

I was able to fix this issue by adding the -Djdk.gtk.version=2 flag after line 9 in https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/jabref.sh?h=jabref (as suggested in the related bug report https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8251240). This change also removes the “XSetErrorHandler() called with a GDK error trap pushed. Don't do that.” warning mentioned by ruiin in a previous comment.

So far, I have not encountered any adverse side-effect from this workaround.

@rellieberman: new version also applies the patch due to this PR: https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/pull/11544/files

Worked, Thank you!

Can you explain what went wrong?

Bevan commented on 2025-01-17 16:01 (UTC)

@rellieberman: I just pushed another change to avoid jitpack. Could you please try version 5.15-3?

rellieberman commented on 2025-01-16 23:01 (UTC)

This time I got a different error message - the same as reported by nbg.

  • What went wrong: A problem occurred configuring root project 'JabRef'.

I've tried building yesterday and today with the same error. The line reads as follows: Using JDK from /usr/lib/jvm/java-21-openjdk to build JabRef.

Thanks!

@rellieberman: I cannot reproduce this issue. Spontaneously, I can imagine two possible reasons:

  • A temporary issue with your network or the mirror. Another build attempt should then work properly.

  • An incompatibility with your Java version. When building the package, there should be a line printed like "Using JDK from /usr/lib/jvm/java-21-openjdk to build JabRef." What exactly does it say in your case?

Hi, I'm getting the following error (mentioned bellow): * What went wrong: Plugin [id: 'com.github.koppor.gradle-modules-plugin', version: 'v1.8.15-cmd-1', artifact: 'com.github.koppor:gradle-modules-plugin:jitpack-SNAPSHOT'] was not found in any of the following sources:

Does anyone have insight to why it is appearing again?

I cannot install jabref. I'm getting a similar error message by @rgarber11

Yeah, the update just worked today. No idea what happened yesterday. Sorry about that!
