Arch Linux User Repository

Might need to put the "updates itself" message in bold. Looks like someone once again flagged this package as out of date.

The command update-desktop-database at jdownloader.install is from desktop-file-utils. Installing will result in an error if that package is not installed.

.INSTALL: line 11: update-desktop-database: command not found

Still installs fine of course.

i believe this package is unaffected by the recent jdownloader hack as it downloads the jar directly using curl in the functions.sh file. is my assumption correct?

@iRaS where exactly do you see this package setting scaling?

Is there a reason behind forcing UI scale to 2.0 ?

Because I prefer to manually set that in JDownloader2.vmoptions and the parameter to the java command in the jdownloader script always has precedence...

Workaround: copy and modify the startscript

@C0rn3j The folder contains only scripts that can be directly installed under /usr/bin according to Linux filesystem hierarchy. For the ones who will use the root access, it's better for them that package installed under /opt/JDownloader.

Seems like /opt/JDownloaderScripts has been this way for 9 years, and /opt/JDownloader exists too, not sure why this directory structure has been chosen but it probably has a reason - why do you want to merge the two?

@C0rn3j Could you make the file under /opt/JDownloader not /opt/JDownloaderScripts?

Why this package is recording my screen when I'm going to resolve the captcha and doesn't allow me to close the screen choose window?, there's no reason at all for record my screen in such an intrusive way.

If anyone has the following issue: archlinux-java set a lower version of Java, start jdownloader, upgrade in the program, set Java version back to latest

Unfortunately your advise to change jdownloader.desktop so it will not be blank is not working here (ENDEAVOUROS,KDE 6.4) Only solution here is to choose a MIME-Type icon in the KDE App-Launcher (which is ugly) ANYWAY - THX for all your effort!
