Arch Linux User Repository

Jitsi installed for me without errors (and using the default java 7 dependencies).

At my laptop, the build fails with:
"BUILD FAILED
/tmp/packerbuild-0/jitsi/jitsi/src/jitsi/build.xml:486: Unable to find a javac compiler;
com.sun.tools.javac.Main is not on the classpath.
Perhaps JAVA_HOME does not point to the JDK.
It is currently set to "/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/jre""

# archlinux-java status generates this output:
Available Java environments:
java-7-openjdk
java-8-openjdk/jre (default)

Solved by installing jdk8-openjdk from the extra repo, but then this should be a build dependency, no?

OK, I reset my PATH to a minimal '/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin', and it now works as expected. The problem is on my side, I'm gonna investigate what's wrong with my setup. Sorry for the warning, and thank you for packaging jitsi :-)

Weird, same version and I just rebuild it without any issue.

Well, I unfortunately have the very same error without packer:

find: The current directory is included in the PATH environment variable, which is insecure in combination with the -execdir action of find. Please remove the current directory from your $PATH (that is, remove ".", doubled colons, or leading or trailing colons)
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().

I'm using:

/usr/bin/makepkg is owned by pacman 5.0.1-2
/usr/bin/find is owned by findutils 4.6.0-1

Packer is causing troubles not the package.
Did update the license and .SRCINFO

It seems that the PKBUILD needs an update ?

Aborting..

The build fails with the error

":: jitsi package(s) failed to install. Check .SRCINFO for mismatching data with PKGBUILD."

However, I was able to install the package with "sudo pacman -U jitsi-2.8.5426-2-x86_64.pkg.tar"

But I get a blank white screen when I try to open Jitsi even after doing $ wmname LG3D and $ _JAVA_AWT_WM_NONREPARENTING=1 jitsi

@gustawho

It's wrong here, the license is Apache.

I don't get it. What's the right license? In the footer's site, they say it's LGPL, but in the LICENSE file at GitHub is Apache https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi/blob/master/LICENSE
