Arch Linux User Repository

Thank you so much for keeping this build updated.

I got a minor build issue. Its probably an upstream issue, but since people look here first, I'll post my workaround.

The error:

$ yay -Scc; yay -S joplin-desktop
[...]
➤ YN0009: │ @joplin/app-clipper@workspace:packages/app-clipper couldn't be built successfully (exit code 1, logs can be found here: /tmp/xfs-81117b5e/build.log)
[...]

$ cat /tmp/xfs-81117b5e/build.log
[...]
Error: Cannot find module 'eslint-loader'
[...]

The Fix:

$ cd ~/.cache/yay/joplin/src/joplin-2.7.15/packages/app-clipper/
$ npm install --save-dev eslint-loader

$ cd ~/.cache/yay/joplin/
$ makepkg
$ sudo pacman -U joplin-desktop-2.7.15-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Hello everyone,

There was been several difficulties upgrading the Joplin due to major changes in the build system upstream.

I have finnally got version 2.6.10 working with pacthes, but remenber:

• You may need to remove your src/ folder before using this version

• The patches are still not perfect, you must say yes to a prompt

I will continue working on this later today, but its usable and stable, please remenber you can always report issues on the github repository.

Regards, Alfredo Palhares

Hello everyone,

I will be renaming the packages to its final form.

• joplin will contain the CLI application
• joplin-desktop will contain the Desktop version

Also, please for problems with the package, please open an issue on the Github repo, its really hard to provide support on the comments section, you can also email me.

If you have problems with the check() function, just run makepkg with the --nocheck flag.

Thank you for your patience. Regards, Alfredo Palhares

@ikidd: All AUR packages are assumed to depend on base-devel which should not be added in the dependencies. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#makedepends

On a fresh install, need to have base-devel or at least make installed, not part of the PKGBUILD dependencies.

I can confirm that @cuihao's version compiles fine in a clean chroot. I don't understand why the current PKGBUILD needs to huge a local cache and other complications while a simple yarn install seems to work.

Note that I wasn't able to build 2.9.1, but since it's a pre-release I haven't investigated why, just mentioning this as a heads-up.

I'm maintaining my version of joplin / joplin-desktop PKGBUILD in the archlinuxcn repo: https://github.com/archlinuxcn/repo/tree/master/archlinuxcn/joplin Feel free to use the PKGBUILD or the compiled packages from archlinuxcn repo.

Disclaimer: I make sure the desktop client works on my machine before publishing a new version to the repo. But I don't use the CLI version so it's not tested.

I confirm that I was able to build trap000d's package, but I have two questions: * why did you merge joplin and joplin-desktop? * I cannot build this package in a clean chroot. Unfortunately it's hard to pinpoint the error, as the logs are said to be in /tmp/xxxx, but that doesn't seem to exist in the chroot. Maybe it's related to what a pinned comment says, and the main package.json is missing a dep?

"To whom it may concern"

A month ago I've managed to build 2.8.8. You can find pkgbuild here:

@tomc yes, do you have any particular question?

@masterkorp Hi Alfredo, please could you confirm whether you are still willing and able to maintain this package? Thanks

@jost21 You can try this (thanks to tomc):

mkdir joplin ; cd joplin
wget https://github.com/archlinuxcn/repo/raw/69b44e1cf576ca261a4868906d5ab9f238570839/archlinuxcn/joplin/{PKGBUILD,joplin-desktop.desktop,joplin-desktop.sh}
makepkg -si

I also wasn't able to build this package since last year. It's really too bad. Unfortunately neither of those two fixes suggested by tomc seem to work for me.

This package has had build issues since the upgrade to joplin 2.6.10 in december last year.

A fix is suggested here: https://github.com/alfredopalhares/arch-pkgbuilds/issues/112#issuecomment-1103266908.

In the same issue there's a link to a working PKGBUILD https://github.com/archlinuxcn/repo/blob/69b44e1cf576ca261a4868906d5ab9f238570839/archlinuxcn/joplin/PKGBUILD

I'm facing similar issues building this package. Log is https://bpa.st/CEYQ

I don't have much (any) experience with nodeJS or npm, i have not the faintest idea what is going on..

Joplin fails while building in a chroot on my machine. @masterkorp can you please check if it builds correctly on your machine in a chroot (makechrootpkg)? Thank you!

Anyone have a solution for this?

I couldn't understand what went wrong. Also did steps mentioned in https://github.com/alfredopalhares/arch-pkgbuilds/issues/112

@blixawillbargeld I do not have a yarn.lock file. Totally clueless about this error.

@zangoku I had the same error. You must remove yarn.lock from your homedir (at least that solved it for me using yay).

For last update I had to pass NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider in build dir :

npm build export NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider

build/install is ok anyway thanks for the hard work !

Thank you guys for the positive feedback! I will try and keep the package as lean as possible, it still as a lot to improve first.

Thank you so much for keeping this build updated.

I got a minor build issue. Its probably an upstream issue, but since people look here first, I'll post my workaround.

I just wanted to second the earlier comment and say thank you for continuing your work on this package. It's obviously not been easy and people have not always been kind. But please know that your work is appreciated by many! The latest update is working nicely.

Sorry for the redundant comment but I just wanted to say thanks for your work on this package, I know it's not been easy getting it to work properly. The latest update works great!

This package has been updated, if any problem arises, please report on Github.

@Paragoumba I opted for joplin-desktop-bin package from AUR as well. It's like devs have abandoned the project. Raised issue in Github and it said to report in AUR, but here none seems to reply.

I have the same problem as @jinmax100. I can't edit my notes and the UI has some weird bugs (icons not displaying and some text displaying with the wrong font). I tried the AppImage of the same version (2.6.10) and it works perfectly. It might be a compilation problem

Hello Team, Recently I installed Joplin Desktop App (v2.6.10-4) in my Arch Linux (with BSPWM). The installation went fine and I was able to sync my notes from Dropbox as well. I ran into a problem however and that was I couldn't write anything in editor layout nor can edit my existing notes. It's like editor is simply broken.

Console outputs the following issue. But I don't think this is correlated. Anyway I am posting it here

A page or script is accessing at least one of navigator.userAgent, navigator.appVersion, and navigator.platform. In a future version of Chrome, the amount of information available in the User Agent string will be reduced.
To fix this issue, replace the usage of navigator.userAgent, navigator.appVersion, and navigator.platform with feature detection, progressive enhancement, or migrate to navigator.userAgentData.
Note that for performance reasons, only the first access to one of the properties is shown.

Help is much appreciated. Thanks

@professed thank you! Had the below error

your user’s .npmrc file (${HOME}/.npmrc)
has a `globalconfig` and/or a `prefix` setting, which are incompatible with nvm.
Run `nvm use --delete-prefix v16.9.1` to unset it.

commented out the prefix line in the .npmrc file and everything continued successfully. *fixed formatting

would it be possible to change the python2 make dependency to python 3?

@manouchk: When building with makepkg, you can remove the source folder by using the -C flag.

That said, note that you need to answer yes to the prompt about the patch, and even then many people have ended up with a broken interface after building joplin with this PKGBUILD. You can try it and see if it works for you; if not, there's a link in the comments to another PKGBUILD that should work. (It didn't work for me, and I've ended up using the -appimage package for the moment instead.)

I hope that helps!

I got the same error as j0hannes.One suggestion made was "remove your src/ folder before using this version" but I don't know how to implement it.

Should have an explicit dependency on npm. Build fails without it.

Thanks a lot @professed ! Your procedure saved my life!

I see this error building it:

The next patch would create the file yarn.lock,
which already exists!  Assume -R? [n]

Thanks to Luis Carvalho and Rob Sears over on Github, I was able to successfully build and install both packages using the following procedure. The resulting Joplin Desktop application has a working interface.

First, install nvm from the AUR.

Next, clone Joplin from the AUR and navigate to the new joplin folder:

$ git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/joplin.git; cd joplin

Next, delete the existing PKGBUILD:

$ rm PKGBUILD

Then replace it with this new PKGBUILD file, courtesy of Luis Carvalho.

And finally, run makepkg to build/install Joplin and Joplin Desktop:

$ makepkg -si

Voila!

It was building with electron16. I tried with the other two versions I've got (13 and 11) but still had the same problem. Maybe it's not the electron version, or maybe these just aren't the right ones. shrug

Anyway, I realized there's an open issue about this on @masterkorp's github and there's even a comment there with a PKGBUILD that's supposed to work. I'll have a look at that when I next have time for this and will probably try building with it.

I noticed a comment in the PKGBUILD about electron breaking the interface (# FIXME: Using packaged electron breaks the interface on line 168). According to @masterkorp's pinned comment, the package is "usable and stable", so I wonder if the editor issues we're having might be because of different electron versions?

I've got electron16, electron13, and electron11 installed. I didn't check which one was used when the package was built, but I might rebuild and check. @maderios, @gwenlune, @Darkmind2007, what electon versions have you got installed?

Build needs nodejs 16, 'nodejs-lts-gallium'. Then, same issue with editor than other users. I don't think it's upstream bug because appimage version works fine.

Please remove --user root in PKGBUILD. Since npm 7, the --user option is no longer available. --user root not only doesn't fix the permission problem, but also installs the package called "root", which conflicts with other packages that also have the --user root option.

Yes, I'm having the same problems as @Darkmind2007, @gwenlune, and others -- at least the inability to edit and garbage in the editor. (I haven't used joplin much in the past day, so I don't know if lines from the editor are being rendered in the wrong area.)

I've assumed it was an upstream issue but haven't had a chance to look into it. I've also got joplin 2.6.10 installed on an Ubuntu 21.04 machine. I'm very busy today, but when I have some time I'll check if the same problems show up there -- that might help narrow down the problem.

same issue here, no solution found!

@thurisaz, thanks for the update! I managed to build and install the package. However, I seem to experience the same issues with the editor that other people were mentioning here:

• I cannot edit anything

• The lines from editor sometimes are rendered even outside of the editor area

• There's often garbage in the editor like "xxxxx"

Have you experienced the same issues? If so, did you manage to fix them?

Like several others posting here, I had trouble upgrading to 2.6.10. Since I've got it installed now, I wanted to share what worked for me in case that helps.

• The build initially failed with an error about lerna not building. I didn't save the exact error message, but it was similar to what @Darkmind2007 reported in this comment or what @zangoku reported in another comment. It turned out this was because I hadn't updated in a while. Updating my installation fixed the lerna-related error.

• However, the build still failed with an error about the version of node -- the same one @maderios has here. I had nodejs-lts-erbium installed, which provides version 12.22.8-1, as reported in the error message. Upgrading to a more recent version of nodejs is the solution, as the error message states. I upgraded to nodejs-lts-gallium (v. 16.13.1-1) and then the build worked fine, but according to the error message nodejs-lts-fermium (v. 14.18.2-1) should also provide a recent enough version.

In a nutshell, the build worked fine for me with:

1. pacman -Syu
2. pacman -S nodejs-lts-gallium
3. makepkg -Cs and respond yes to the prompt.

I hope that's helpful to someone. Thanks for the package, @masterkorp! I'm happier using this than an AppImage, and I appreciate the effort you've put in to maintain it.

For 2.6.10 you actually have to confirm the yarn.lock warning with the string "yes". "Y" or "y" is not sufficient here.

You may need to remove your src/ folder before using this version

What is 'src/' folder? Where should I remove it from?

So far, I get this while trying to install this package:

Error: Cannot find module 'code-point-at'

Is there any upstream issue to follow already?

At the moment, i cannot click into the edit window of a note to add text.

edit: sorry, i only saw your pinned comments and thought that they were the most recent ones. but below them there are newer ones.

I got error

error electron-builder@22.14.5: The engine "node" is incompatible with this module. Expected version ">=14.0.0". Got "12.22.8"
error Found incompatible module.
lerna ERR! yarn install --mutex network:42424 --non-interactive --cache /home/fre/ARCH-AUR/joplin/src/npm-cache --no-optional exited 1 in '@joplin/app-desktop'
lerna WARN complete Waiting for 3 child processes to exit. CTRL-C to exit immediately.
error Command failed with exit code 1.

Like the others, I would also have preferred to install this instead of the appimage version.

I'm sorry you feel that way @masterkorp. I actually think it's a good thing that people are posting build issues here (although I think that issues with the application itself should be posted upstream). I think maintainers should be notified of build issues, even if the commenter is incapable of providing the solution.

However, if you feel unable to fix this package, then perhaps you could post upstream or in the Arch forum for help? If the PKGBUILD is broken, I would certainly not want to discourage people from posting here.

(Also, I noticed that you maintain three other packages, all of which have been flagged as out of date. One is 2 months out of date, and another is 14 months! The last should probably be deleted. No offence, but if you do feel overwhelmed by maintaining packages in general, perhaps it would be a good idea to disown them.)

@masterkorp I understand your frustration. I hope you continue maintaining the package and I really appreciate the work and time you put into this. I prefer this over flatpak, AppImage etc. and also having the CLI client.

To be honest, even though the AppImage provides a solution (I haven't tried it, just following the other comments), I must say that I'd personally consider it as the last resort.

My preference would be to have as little AppImage apps on my PC as possible, only for products that are too difficult to integrate with the system. Otherwise app management becomes too much MacOS style, which doesn't seem like Arch way of doing things.

Just to be clear, I didn't mean to complain about the package quality leaving the comment with the error message. It was just to provide some debug data or in case someone else has already faced the same problem.

I'd be happy to help if I had more experience with electron and JS.

@madjoe I only follow stable branches too, this is the cost of properly packaging stuff. That package is there if anyone needs it, but it does not provide the joppin cli client.

I honestly just want to disown this package, with some many people just demanding that stuff works out of the box, but they do not provide or help with any helpfull solution.

@Rhinoceros: Too many issues with this package. I agree, joplin-appimage simply works and besides, it only follows stable branches, which is a plus.

For anyone else unable to build this package, joplin-appimage works well as a replacement to joplin-desktop.

I updated to the most recent version and it seems that the internal editor doesn't work for both: existing notes and new ones. It seems like a known issue:

Slightly different problem perhaps, but I also can't build as per this GitHub issue.

The build fails with the following message (even after answering "yes" to all questions). Has anyone experienced this?

Fixes for missing npm dependency and for the patch issue (yarn.lock was duplicated in one of the patch files):

https://gitlab.com/waldher/joplin/-/commit/5ce1a02f0afa3af8a6b054bc24f92d596b9d18ea

Just updated to 2.6.10-4. The note editor seems to be badly broken: it shows no text for some notes (which however are correctly displayed) while for others the source markdown is displayed and I can edit it, but the cursor is not visible.

Edit: the empty editor issue happens only when the window is resized below a certain dimension. For bigger or full-screen windows the content is displayed but the cursor is still missing.

Edit2:: I just installed joplin-appimage 2.6.10-1 and it works perfectly, so probably there are still issues with the build configuration of this package.

Hello everyone,

There was been several difficulties upgrading the Joplin due to major changes in the build system upstream.

I have finnally got version 2.6.10 working with pacthes, but remenber:

• You may need to remove your src/ folder before using this version

• The patches are still not perfect, you must say yes to a prompt

I will continue working on this later today, but its usable and stable, please remenber you can always report issues on the github repository.

Regards, Alfredo Palhares

Latest is 2.6.9 https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases/

From 12 days ago, latest stable release is 2.5.12 https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases/

PKGBUILD seems to be missing the libgsf package which is required for build

Is there a reason this has not yet been updated to 2.5.xx yet? There is a major bug fix for this version regarding TLS certificates.

@luz
Update PKGBUILD
Edit the file PKGBUILD and make necessary changes, i.e. bumping the version number.

Update checksums in the PKGBUILD file
updpkgsums

Update .SRCINFO file
makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO

Please update. The issue with the expired Let's encrypt certificate should be resolved in the latest version.

For those with the error: A current workaround is to set 'ignore TLS errors' in the settings.

Latest release is 2.4.12 (not 2.5.1)

 # local npm cache directory

How can I install this for aarch64 proot? Please help me!

The installation/update stuck for hours at:

install dependencies: verb installed leaf @joplin/app-desktop

To ensure the integrity of packages, make sure that the integrity variables contain correct values. These can be updated using the updpkgsums tool

PKGBUILD Integrity

For those who don't know how to update while the maintainer can't do it, just download the PKGBUILD file to a folder for the purpose, edit the file and change the version to 2.3.5, which downloads Joplin 2.3.5. Then run sha256sum <file> to get the sha256sum. Then edit PKGBUILD again and change the last sha256sum to the one from the last command and just run makepkg -i on the same folder as the PKGBUILD file.

It is old because it is not compatible with sync in android. There is the current version 2.3.3 of Joplin-desktop. Please update it, thank you!

Running the latest 2.2.7 gets me the following error:

/usr/bin/joplin-desktop: line 12:  7782 Trace/breakpoint trap   (core dumped) ./@joplinapp-desktop "$@"

The appimage variant runs without problems, though.

@ajgraves Looks like zebdo bumped to 2.2.1, but this is only a pre-release. Presumably that's why someone else reverted it.

@SandWarrior67 To avoid unneeded errors, don't use "Yay" or any Aur helper

I have a strange problem with Electron. Error log: https://hastebin.com/redufuvila.typescript

I'm curious why this package was bumped to the 2.2 level but then dropped back down to the 2.1 line. I have the 2.2.1 update installed but don't want to downgrade just to keep the AUR package in line.

@alpha619 Manjaro is not Arch, packages are different. If you want to install Arch Aur package, install Arch first. It's easier now with new installer https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Archinstall

Cannot update on manjaro, always get "npm ERR! code ECONNRESET" or "npm ERR! code ERR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT" error.

@maderios Thanks for helping me out, that worked! I need to update my notes about this, never needed it :).

@XTREEMRAGE This happens when you don't update git repo or/and a previous package version is still present in your directory. Don't use any Aur any "helper", just do 'makepkg -sicC'

Somehow when I update this (v2.1.8-1), it still install v2.1.7... :| Anyone else have this issue?

Package still shows it's version as 2.1.8-1 in AUR. Check if you've updated .SRCINFO

Thanks for this update. It works fine.

Everytime I can't update as it throwws a new npm update. New minor version of npm available! 7.17.0 -> 7.19.1 Currently I'm in 1.8.7, then couldn't update to 2.0 as it said npm 6.xx - 7.xx was available.

anyway I could bypass this & install.

@mke21 Look here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=130309
``` These boards are for the support of Arch Linux, and Arch ONLY If you have installed Archbang, Antergos, Chakra, Evo/Lution, Manjaro, Whatever, you are NOT running Arch Linux.

Cannot update on Manjaro, I get an error 'PKGBUILD not exitst'

2.2.1 is out https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases/tag/v2.2.1

I don't care, stop being so condescending towards other people's preferences :^)

@hazelnot Aur helpers, "it's easier" but they cause build issues... :)

yay and pamac are AUR helpers, lots of people use them cause it's easier and it makes the AUR packages auto-update

What is "yay" and "pamac"? To compile and install Joplin, i just use 'makepkg -SicC'. It works fine now.

Got npm stuck for 4 hours at the state below while installing it via yay:

install dependencies: verb installed leaf @joplin/app-desktop

Note that there is a bug in 2.1.7 causing the desktop client to sync endlessly if you enable sharing (when used with Joplin server). Bug #5133 on Github. https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/5133 This is fixed in 2.1.8.

Hi. @masterkorp - just checking in on when you're likely to update to the latest version: 2.1.7 - seems to be the latest now as per 4 days ago.

Usually there's no issue in waiting, however, I've had some issues crop up, and the suggestions have been to upgrade to the 2.1.x version.

Thanks for your effort in this, you maintainers rock!

@txtsd @masterkorp Add python2 to makedepends could fix this, or wait upstream (electron-rebuild) merge this pr. https://github.com/electron/electron-rebuild/pull/669

There is a problem building version 2.0.11-1 I got this error while building: curl: (33) HTTP server doesn't seem to support byte ranges. Cannot resume. ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/archive/v2.0.11.tar.gz Aborting... error downloading sources: joplin (joplin-desktop)

As a reminder, this packages refers to the latest stable release of joplin.

@maderios That's not a solution for me. Maybe there's some way to prevent npm from spawning so many processes.

@txtsd I met same issue, so i tried joplin-beta. It compiles and works fine for me.

This happens everytime. npm install processes stay running and maxing out my bandwidth even after it has failed. How do I get around it?

error making: joplin (joplin joplin-desktop)

This package officially doesn't support aarch64 (aka. arm64), but I thought I would try building the package anyway by adding aarch64 to supported platforms. The package indeed builds without any errors, but for some reason the built binary is now amd64, even though my system definitely tells it it is aarch64. Apologies if this is out of the scope of this packge, but I would appreciate any help on fixing this.

joplin-beta 2.0.2-1 compiles successfully today

1.8.5-1 update was strange. It lasted more than 1 hour, took over 400MB and then failed. Why did it use npm and electron-builder if it's already in the system? Anyway, I had to remove it and install from snap, which uses a fraction of the disk space and installed in ca. 2 minutes.

Actually, sync is not working in this version for me, both CLI & GUI.

Update to 1.8.5 is straight forward:

Edit: I am getting the same build error as mentioned in issue https://github.com/alfredopalhares/arch-pkgbuilds/issues/81 (No need to do a big error log paste, when its in the gh issue already)

Can confirm that this doesn't work anymore because icu was updated to 69.1, and Joplin is looking for 68.x

Edit: re-building the package fixed the error, although now I'm just getting a blank white screen.

Edit: thanks for being so quick with the update! Everything works now.

@Frogboy To get Joplin working again you need to modify the PKGBUILD file to use the electron11 package as a dependency instead of electron as I suggested in the comment below yours. Check the diff at the end of my comment.

If you apply those changes and run makepkg -si you will end up with a working application.

No longer works after upgrading Electron, even after rebuilding. This porbably needs to be updated as well.

After the electron package was upgraded in my system to version 12.x, I started getting the following error when I tried to start joplin-desktop:

$ joplin-desktop
./@joplinapp-desktop: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.68: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The version of icu I currently have installed is:

local/icu 69.1-1
    International Components for Unicode library

And the versions of electron are:

local/electron 12.0.4-2
    Build cross platform desktop apps with web technologies
local/electron11 11.4.3-2
    Build cross platform desktop apps with web technologies

Now that the default version of the electron package is 12.0.4, the joplin and joplin-desktop packages should probably use the electron11 package as a dependency until Joplin officially supports Electron 12.x.

I initially tried regenerating the packages with the latest electron (12.0.4-2) package but joplin-desktop would not start. To fix the issues I had to modify the electron dependency and set it to electron11. These are the changes I made to the PKGBUILD:

error making: joplin (joplin-desktop)

Tried to rebuild this package this morning and I'n now getting the same error reported by @trumee. Any other workaround other than installing python2?

@trumee Turns out, that's a python error. Install python2 and it should be fixed.

It seems like libgsf doesn't show up in the Dependencies section even though it's defined in the PKGBUILD.

This breaks the build when using AUR helpers like yay. I'm not sure if libgsf needs to be added to the build dependencies list or if there's some other issue.

In the meantime anybody else running into this issue can just manually install libgsf so it isn't that huge an issue.

Please everyone. this package follows the stable releases of the projects, which at this time is 1.7.11, dont flag the package out of date without checking that.

@haven : I used the directions on Joplin's home page. That installed v1.6.3

I'm also getting this npm related error. Please suggest how to proceed.

@dwsong07 Good call. I missed the status.

v1.8.1 is a pre-release not a stable release. I guess it should be unflagged.

error making: joplin

For dependencies, I think you should define that at least version 12 is required for nodejs. I had nodejs-lts-dubnium installed, which made the terminal app crash on some functions.

@joshsteele21 @masterkorp same issue with me, couldn't install using yay -S package_name. getting the same lerna error on every run.

but weirdly it get installed without any error on running makepkg -si in joplin directory in cache of yay.

@masterkorp

I tried it probable 20+ times over the last 3 days. I tried deactivating my host file and I'm able to download the mentioned file manually.

The build process always aborts at fork-sax or turndown

Is it possible that it is a problem with the npm installation/config?

@joshsteele21

That is a network error from NPN, I have no control over that. What happens if you retry ?

Keep getting errors during installation:

lerna ERR! npm install --cache /home/***/.cache/yay/joplin/src/npm-cache exited 1 in '@joplin/fork-sax'
lerna ERR! npm install --cache /home/***/.cache/yay/joplin/src/npm-cache stderr:
npm ERR! code ERR_SOCKET_TIMEOUT

or sometimes a similar error with @joplin/turndown (I cannot reproduce it at the moment, therefore I cannot paste the exact error message. But I saw that error more than once during my attempts.)

I tried installing it with yay and the Manjaro GUI. The installation works, when I install it with the Joplin install script (wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/dev/Joplin_install_and_update.sh | bash).

As mentioned before, at least libgsf is missing. Manually installing this dependency solved the problem for me.

It will not build for me unless I install python2. Filed bug on github

@pur2evil,

In that case you can just edit the packagebuild and remove these 2

@masterkorp I was trying to install it with 'yay -S joplin' and failed.
Do note that I had not installed joplin-desktop before it.
Maybe joplin need those dependencies too?

@pur2evil ?

There are many cli clients? Do you mean makepkg ?

@masterkorp The CLI one.

@pur2evil

What client are you using ?

@masterkorp joplin-1.7.11-2 ==> Missing dependencies: -> libexif -> libgsf ==> Checking buildtime dependencies... ==> ERROR: Could not resolve all dependencies. error making: joplin

Hello,there is a sync error with version 1.6.7. When I open the application of joplin-desktop,something named "fetched items " will occur in the left lower corner. Although I have only 300 notes, the "fetched items" process can be going on always! I have waited it when the number was 10000+ but it was still going on .

Sorry, I had found the reason above. In the directory which named ".config", I found some directories just like "joplin" "Joplin" "@joplin" and etc. When I delete them all and then reset the sync method of joplin, it works normal.

Thank you, @taken. Confirming that the following works:

yay -S --rebuild joplin-desktop

here is the result of pacman -Ql joplin-desktop (I hope! because I haven't used pastebin before)!

https://pastebin.com/fta5ixhp

@lucianf I had the same error when upgrading to 1.5.14-1. The error was resolved following a rebuild of the package:

yay -S --rebuild joplin-desktop

@lucianf Can you paste the pacman -Ql joplin-desktop, do a pastebin please

man I don't know what is happening, but after all these changes to this package, I have removed what I had installed on my system, then did a yay -S joplin-desktop and I still get this error when I try to run it:

$ joplin-desktop 
/usr/bin/joplin-desktop: line 12: ./@joplinapp-desktop: No such file or directory

Only the appimage works for me and that take quite a bit to load.

@masterkorp From my own experience with other packages, trying to compile different packages with different dependencies in a single pkgbuild brings to only more problems. Anyway, cli version is shipped by joplin authors with different version numbers, so having two different pkgbuild is really the only solution.

@mprom, this is a limitation of the makepkg, you cant just built one packaege,

Edit the pkgname array, and remove the joplin-desktop that will work.

I am trying to do a workaround without having to create 2 separate packages. But I guess making a repository its the only response.

@mprom Unfortunately, if you use this pkgbuild you have to "compile" both cli and desktop versions, and yes, this is very annoying for the ones who just want the cli version.

I'm splitting the pkgbuild in order to "fix" this behavior, and I will send my results to the maintainer.

Why does this package compile using Electron? Electron is a framework for developing GUI applications, and this is the CLI version.

Hello,

I have updated the package, to 1.5.12 The packages are now much smaller, I have also disabled the checks since I can't reproduce the error in any way.

Confirming. Since *-14 it changed to same:

$ yay -Ss joplin

aur/joplin-beta 1.5.11-1 (+3 0.93%) The latest pre-release - open source note taking and to-do application

aur/joplin-appimage 1.5.11-1 (+16 0.89%) The latest pre-released AppImage of Joplin - a cross-platform note taking and to-do app

aur/joplin-desktop 1.4.19-14 (+155 12.12%) A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - Desktop

aur/joplin 1.4.19-14 (+155 12.12%) (Installed: 1.4.19-12) A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - CLI App

You can see pkgdesk change on the last version https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=joplin&id=2c86bba5bb110f62689049bee0723779594c06a2

UPD:

• Last upgrade ran without any failures.

• After updgrade "joplin" became CLI only version and I had to install "joplin-desktop" in addition.

aur/joplin-desktop 1.4.19-14 (+155 12.10%) (Installed) A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - Desktop

aur/joplin 1.4.19-14 (+155 12.10%) (Installed) A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - CLI App

@Hanzo, I'm not sure where you're seeing those descriptions, but I'm getting completely different results.

A yay search gives the following description, which doesn't indicate that the package includes the desktop version:

aur/joplin 1.4.19-14 (+155 12.16) A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - CLI App

And when I check the AUR web interface (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&SeB=nd&K=joplin&outdated=&SB=n&SO=a&PP=50&do_Search=Go) I'm seeing the same thing:

joplin 1.4.19-14 155 12.16 Yes A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - CLI App

I can't find a combined package anywhere. I can confirm that my system is fully up-to-date.

@gregLTS

You need to install "joplin" and you'll have both. See description:

aur/joplin-desktop 1.4.19-13 (+155 12.27%) A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - Desktop

aur/joplin-cli 1.4.19-13 (+155 12.27%) A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - CLI App

aur/joplin 1.4.19-13 (+155 12.27%) (Installed: 1.4.19-12) A note taking and to-do application with synchronization capabilities - CLI and Desktop Version

@masterkorp, do you know when you're going to be renaming the packages? I want both the CLI and Desktop apps, so I tried to install both joplin and joplin-desktop, but I'm given the error that the packages conflict with each other.

@masterkorp

Built, as suggested, package-12 without checks (--nocheck) and suddenly arrived update-13 created just now ... Tried to install with yay and failed again with same check() issues.

If it's possible, please update us when we'll be able to update without those issues from AUR and not manually, because It's annoying to waste about half an hour just to fail in the end.

@masterkorp I appreciate that you'd prefer to use your Github page for issues, but there are some of us that prefer not to use Github for ideological or other reasons. The comments section of the AUR is really the "official" feedback area.

Also TBH it's not that hard to provide support here. Thank you for maintaining this package, but I maintain 12 times as many packages as you and find it perfectly workable, although admittedly this package does seem to have a lot of issues!

Hello everyone,

I will be renaming the packages to its final form.

• joplin will contain the CLI application
• joplin-desktop will contain the Desktop version

Also, please for problems with the package, please open an issue on the Github repo, its really hard to provide support on the comments section, you can also email me.

If you have problems with the check() function, just run makepkg with the --nocheck flag.

Thank you for your patience. Regards, Alfredo Palhares

Thank you @paro

I opened an issue on maintainer github (https://github.com/alfredopalhares/arch-pkgbuilds/issues/66) with various notes and comments. I'm fixing the pkgbuild and willing to share my solution if maintainer doesn't show up. For the time being, I'd suggest to simply compile the packages with makepkg and then install the joplin package alone (with pacman -U).

Hi all, I'm having problems with the current build I don't understand, hoping for some help. I first tried to update a few days ago and I got this error message:

joplin on  master [?]
➜  makepkg -si
==> WARNING: The package group has already been built, installing existing packages...
==> Installing joplin package group with pacman -U...

==> WARNING: Failed to install built package(s).
makepkg -si  6.68s user 2.74s system 109% cpu 8.598 total

I have tried uninstalling the previous packages and pulled the latest version each time one has become available over the past few days but to no avail. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, I'm trying to install this package but i have:

rror: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: joplin and joplin-desktop-electron are in conflict

I do not have joplin-desktop-electron installed.

When starting joplin-desktop:

./@joplinapp-desktop: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.67: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I cannot recall when the last time was it worked, I completely lost track of what is going on with this package ...

EDIT: (Re)Did yay -S --mflags="--nocheck" joplin and it works again.

@masterkorp --nocheck is still needed for the build to succeed. I agree, it would be great if you could test locally then push one commit when ready.

with "makepkg -f" you can force the build. No need to bump if not necessary. Is better to make changes locally and, at the end, push the update to AUR, as Rhinoceros suggest.

@masterkorp Oh okay. Maybe I missed something. Can't you just makepkg locally without pushing changes? What else does the AUR do exactly?

@Rhinocerors

I need to test the releases, I absolutely no other way to test the releases and the multiple package integration of the AUR

Also, `--nocheck`` is not needed anymore even, the check function is a force pass.

@masterkorp Could you please stop pushing multiple updates? I've had to rebuild this so many times in the last few weeks. Can you please just put all your changes in one $pkgrel bump? There really shouldn't be any need for 12 bumps. Also, since the PKGBUILD is broken (check() still fails), it's quite annoying to re-install the same version 13 times.

EDIT: it's also worth pinning one of the comments about building with --nocheck

Sorry to sound like a nooblet, but how do you do the --nocheck with aurutils? Anybody know?

@Schlaefer: Many thanks! Joplin works again!

Joplin's test-cases are currently failing. The workaround is the same as for joplin-desktop-electron that was mentioned by others: don't run the test-cases by disabling check (e.g. for yay):

yay -S --mflags="--nocheck" joplin-desktop

I cannot launch Joplin. I try to install this package and I'm getting this error:

$ yay -S --rebuild joplin-desktop-electron does not work!

$ makepkg -si does not work either!

$ npm -v 6.14.8

npm 7.0.5-1 from community-testing fails to build with some obscure errors, npm 6.14.8-2 from community works fine.

@imlonghao yay -S --rebuild joplin-desktop-electron commond can not work, i makepkg -s build a new pkg, thank you!

@Dongsean yay -S --rebuild joplin-desktop-electron

@imlonghao i am a beginner, please tell me how to rebuild it.

@Dongsean you can just rebuild it, should fix your re2 problem.

The joplin-desktop-electron 1.4.19-8 last updated in 2020-12-09 01:07, but electron and re2 last updated in 2020-12-15 02:54 UTC. Can we get a new PKGBUILD?

The downgrade from @maykin and @ridgea works. Can we get a fix to the PKGBUILD?

I am getting the same error as @lucianf /usr/bin/joplin-desktop: line 12: ./@joplinapp-desktop: No such file or directory I double checked the pkg folder and there is no @joplinapp-dektop file created. Does anyone know how to fix this?

update: commenting out

npm install compare-version # Joplin Cli needs this
./node_modules/.bin/lerna bootstrap

allows the package to build correctly. I have no idea how that affects joplin-cli as I don't use that

Also rebuilding seems to eliminate the re2 issue

@Darkmind2007: The package was split to make it simpler for people to install only the CLI or the desktop version. You can (re)install the desktop version by installing the joplin-desktop-electron package.

You may need to pass the --nocheck flag to makepkg (see below) in order for the build of the desktop package to work, but this is a temporary bug.

After the update today, "joplin 1.4.19-8" package only contains "joplin-cli". Any ideas why the desktop version was removed?

I needed to downgrade re2:

sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/re2-1\:20201001-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

@ridgea Confirmed. I have the same issue.

FYI: today electron package in my system was updated alongside with re2 (as a dependency) 11.1.0 _1 -> 11.1.0 _2 After that joplin-desktop didn't start, had to downgrade electron to the previous version (the new version requires newer re2, that contains libre2.so.9 when joplin requires libre2.so.8)

Somehow, I use systemd-networkd as my network manager, joplin failed no matter what flags I use. In the output, yay failed to get a appimage from github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder-binaries/release/download/appimage-12.0.1/appimage-12.0.1.7z

But if I use networkmanager from gnome, joplin installed as intended. I don't know if it's my resolved config problem or some other reason. It might be off topic.

I tried installing joplin-desktop-electron even with the suggestions below but I get this error when running it:

/usr/bin/joplin-desktop: line 12: ./@joplinapp-desktop: No such file or directory

I can only run the joplin-cli version successfully. Any ideas?

yay -S --mflags="--nocheck" joplin-desktop-electron worked for me as well

Confirmed that yay -S --mflags="--nocheck" joplin-desktop-electron works.

@masterkorp Upgrade still doesn't work. See output below.

lerna ERR! npm run test exited 1 in 'joplin'

@masterkorp: The package build for joplin-desktop-electron succeeds with `makepkg --nocheck'.

As expected, passing the --nocheck flag to yay also yields success (yay -S --mflags="--nocheck" joplin-desktop-electron).

I have opened an issue on GitHub as requested. Thank you for your help!!

@figue, I added that on the latest update.

@professed, that is on the check() function, it seems you run out of proceess spawning capabilites.

You can run makepkg --nocheck to see ?

You can you open an issue here? https://github.com/alfredopalhares/arch-pkgbuilds It would be easier for me.

I have to build the new splitted package with extra-x86_64-build (package release 1.4.19-1) then uninstall joplin and install joplin-desktop-electron (as I don't need the CLI). Whould be nice to print an advice in post-upgrade() for users to take it into account.

Edit: I have seen the message in latest commit. Thanks!

@masterkorp: Just tried again after you updated the package. Same result. I tried `yay -S joplin-desktop-electron' for good measure to no avail. Here's the npm debug log of that run.

Hello,

Just updated the package again.

@jmonger, its because you do not have electron installed, this now uses packaged electron. I added that to makedpends.

If joplin desktop is not being installed, you need to tell your AUR client to, yay -S joplin-desktop-electron

Same here... What do you need to help troubleshoot this?

Getting this error message at the end. Upgrading from 1.3.3.

cat: /usr/lib/electron/version: No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package_joplin-desktop-electron().
    Aborting...

@masterkorp I seem to be having the same problem. joplin-desktop is not being installed, while joplin-cli is (directly in /usr/share/joplin-cli)

@lilgeek its not suposed to be there, now its using the joplin-cli and joplin-desktop

@NatOsaka, can you give more context pn this problem ?

@masterkorp The error reported by NatOsaka is there after the latest update Latest update seems to not create /usr/share/joplin/joplin

@NatOsaka: Could you help with which commit was rolled back and how? I am having the same issue.

Latest update seems to not create /usr/share/joplin/joplin. I rolled back a commit and the joplin binary is correctly built.

@tag_enk can you try extra-x86_64-build build in a clean env?

anyone got a fix for this? nothing is working for me at this point

On Manjaro (at least) Joplin 1.2.6-1 cli interface fails to start with a missing sqlite3 module error.

Following the comment by @Retro64XYZ on 2020-08-10, this can be fixed by:

cd /usr/share/joplin-cli
sudo npm install sqlite3 --unsafe-perm

I hope this can help someone else.

This package needs an electron dependency. It was failing to build for me.

I had electron-lts-carbon installed. Soon as I switched to community/electron 10.1.5-1, the package built and installed successfully.

@bparsons I keep getting "error errno 6, error joplin@1.0.0 postinstall:" when using ur fork (tried with v1.1.4, v1.2.6, v1.3.1)

@masterkorp could you please update this package as the latest release no is 1.2.6. Thanks in advance!

1.1.4 is the latest official release. If you are anxious for pre-releases, I pretty much keep up with those and have PKGBUILDs here: https://github.com/bparsons/joplin-pkgbuild

Here's a quick and hacky fix that nobody should use. I made no effort to actually identify the root problem. If you're desperate, you're desperate; use at your own risk.

sudo mkdir /usr/share/joplin-cli/build
sudo ln -s /usr/share/joplin-cli/lib /usr/share/joplin-cli/build/lib

Can you guys post of your problems on the github repo? I am having problems following everyone, one, because my packages works for me, even on a fresh system.

I am having the issue with the spellfix.so file as well. Any chance we could get this updated or can I help do so? I use this for work and REALLY need it fixed. I appreciate all your hard work but if I can help in any way, would love to.

Sorry, I misdeleted my previous comment.

@WatcherWhale Thanks for help! I have downgraded to 1.0.245 not work as told me need to upgrade when open GUI. In terminal joplin show empty notes. Did you have same situation? Or you use 242 directly and works well?

@roachsinai This issue is fixed in the upstream (https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/3783). The package here must however be updated to at least 1.2.1 for this to work again. Currently, you can downgrade to an older version (like I did to version 1.0.242) and wait until the package gets updated.

Hi everyone, I'm running into an issue with the PKGBUILD of this package. The prebuild-install step complains about a missing module called 'fstream'. Please find the error below:

I have faced this error when opened CLI: ./build/lib/sql-extensions/spellfix.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory . It was fixed in version CLI v1.2.1.

Do you want a comaintainer masterkorp? I use this package and have a vested interest in keeping it up to date.

Hello everyone, Does anyone know how to improve Cyrillic text within the editor? Having trouble with editing text, the cursor straight up just clips through some letters

@zero.0 Thank you for the hint. I will have a look at it.

It says there is not enough space, but there are more than 15 GB free. Any ideas?

Any suggestions?

Sorry, how likely is a chance that v1.0.241 will be packaged soon? This release breaks backward compatibility and currently desktop cannot sync anymore due to mobile devices that have already upgraded the server storage

@masterkorp Thanks for unflagging that. Sorry for telling you something that you already know ;-) I hope you had a good vacation.

Hello everyone,

I was on vacations, I unflagged the package, I would like to remind you again, that that is is the latest stable release for joplin, I don't package pre-releases.

Unflag it is up to date

@mastercorp You can unflag it. Can you please do that?

This package has been flagged out of date but beware v1.0.233 is still the latest "stable" release. Upper versions are still pre-releases. Details here: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases

This is a temporary fix but it will resolve the issue with complaints by joplin-cli that immer or sqlite3 are not available.

Hi, as of 1.0.233, joplin builds fine. The GUI works well. However, on launching the cli version, it throws this error:

I would like to remmind that this package does not update to pre-releases

Can you copy the application icon to /usr/share/pixmaps/joplin.png and update the line 6 of the joplin.desktop to:

Icon=joplin

This will make it possible to customize it in icon themes.

Build as of June 15 is failing. Failure starts at

/bin/sh: pkg-config: command not found gyp: Call to 'pkg-config --cflags libsecret-1' returned exit status 127 while in binding.gyp. while trying to load binding.gyp

with multiple gyp ERR! following. For what its worth, I am running Manjaro.

It’s not Zemoose’s fault. To keep certain packages from breaking and bugs from arising, Joplin’s main team is locking in specific versions. The dependencies have gotten managed better than they used to be but the whole “use new libraries where able to save time and code maintenance” approach is a bit problematic at times.

I wouldn’t recommend updating most packages if you can avoid it because of this.

@ZeMoose, just to be on the safe side, you should periodically check for npm update and resolve those security vulnerabilities by running npm audit fix.

this version is very outdated. please do something

Hey, all. My name is Brandon and I'm a member of the Joplin Team. I'm not one of the core devs but instead primarily am focused on Linux support and research.

Here's my credentials on the Forums: https://discourse.joplinapp.org/g/Team

Here's my main contribution to the project so far: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/3114

@ZeMoose, the dependencies of Joplin do concern me quite a bit myself. I'd love to hear which ones concern you the most.

If confronted with a 'fatal error: unknown table: settings' it helped me to rm -rf ~/.config/Joplin/ ~/.config/joplin-desktop/ and reinstall joplin from the already compiled package.

Such was suggested here: https://discourse.joplinapp.org/t/solved-linux-fatal-error-unknown-table-settings/6253

Should I be concerned about the hundreds of low and moderate severity vulnerabilities reported by npm during the build process?

Building fails all the time.

@imlonghao

It still does not work.

I'll put the log here:https://pastebin.com/3CfZQ0NR

@Al3xG sudo npm cache clean --force [1] does it help?

[1] https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15393821/npm-err-cb-never-called

I'm having the same "cb() never called!" error with the last 1.0.201 build. Any way to sort this out please? Thanks.

Please update the PKGBUILD. The latest version out is 1.0.200.

Now, the version is 1.0.197.

Please update the PKGBUILD.

I'm also having the cb() never called error while running makepkg -si. Hope this gets fixed soon.

It also happens to me today where on some Archlinux machines installing this package through yay reports npm ERR! cb() never called! error while running makepkg directly did not cause this error. Strange.

I can confirm it's building now.

Actually, compiling with yay works fine now. Weird. I guess it's alright after all.

Interesting. I ran makepkg manually (I use yay normally). It worked fine. I'm going to try a clean build that way.

@aliTajelsir @masterkorp @imlonghao I'm getting the same error "npm ERR! cb() never called!" I have my machine all up-to-date (-Syu) as well. I checked and yarn is installed. I was able to compile it in the previous iteration of the package.

Missing yarn in makedepends

@imlonghao I saw you have recently joined and adopted this package on archlinuxcn. Maybe you can start an alternative fork on AUR? This author doesn't seem too keen to maintain it accordingly to the guideline. There is plenty room for improvement.

• Missing and extra depends.

• separated CLI and Electron builds.

• Building against system electron.

@masterkorp @imlonghao, I already did pacman -Syu but I did it again and then tried to build but without success. @paulstrait, I installed yarn with the same results. As I see I'm the only one with the npm issue so I'll look into my setup again and if it's not resolved I'll open an issue in GitHub. Thanks for the help.

Trap000d's fork works, but it needs yarn as a dependency but doesn't seem to realize that it does...

@AliTajelsir, I can build trap000d's fork successfully. You may do pacman -Syu before build the AUR package. @masterkorp, can you merge https://github.com/alfredopalhares/joplin-pkgbuild/pull/49 into master or add yarn as makedepend?

@AllTajedir

Can you do a pacman -Syu before and AUr update as well?

If the problem persits, can you please report it here?

https://github.com/alfredopalhares/joplin-pkgbuild/issues

Thanks @trap000d, but even with your repo I get the npm error:

npm ERR! cb() never called!

npm ERR! This is an error with npm itself. Please report this error at:

Looks like an issue specific to npm. Tried different solutions from their forum without success.

AliTajelsir, This is because I've modified *.desktop file as well. Please clone full repo from https://github.com/trap000d/aur and build Joplin from there.

Even with yarn installed, while it builds, it certainly does not look, nor function as it should?

I get the following error when trying to build:

I've also tried @trap000d PKGBUILD but also unsuccessful with the following error:

    joplin-desktop.sh ... Passed
    joplin.sh ... Passed
    joplin-1.0.193.tar.gz ... Passed
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

With @trap000d PKGBUILD and updated sha256sums I get the first npm error

This is getting long. @masterkorp can you please add yarn as makedepend? Thanks

I also needed to install yarn to get this to build. I think it's only a makedepends though, because I was able to uninstall it and joplin still ran fine. Also is git really a makedependency (I didn't check)?

Just like that when I installed it I got

/var/tmp/pamac-build-nick/joplin/PKGBUILD: line 46: yarn: command not found ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting...

I installed yarn, then it worked. Yarn should be added as a dependency.

Thanks trap000d, your version worked for me.

mightyBroccoli, Here is the PKGBUILD for 1.0.193 which works for me: https://github.com/trap000d/aur/blob/master/joplin/PKGBUILD

There seems to be some issue with build process with the new stable version 1.0.193.

the best is appimage

Thank you fabious!!!

People should really stop flagging this package as out-of-date every single day because a PRE-release came out... Please check this link: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/releases/latest then stop. Take 5 to 10 minutes to read the release number. Then take some more time to accurately compare it with the version on the AUR: digit by digit!

Build procedure has changed significantly since 1.0.185. I've spent an hour and built 1.0.187 successfully. The corresponding PKGBUILD can be found here: https://github.com/trap000d/aur/tree/master/joplin

As a side effect it also builds an AppImage archive. To disable AppImage one should patch the file joplin-1.0.187/ElectronClient/package.json: .... -"target": "AppImage" +"target": "dir" ....

ICYMI, you can find pre-built Joplin package in http://chaotic.bangl.de/chaotic-aur/x86_64/ and http://repo.archlinuxcn.org

If you're experiencing app locking on sync, consider looking through and possibly helping out with this issue:

https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/2518

Kernel downgrade to 5.4 LTS seems (so I've heard) to work for now.

I have a PR for the current version, which seems to improve stability a bunch: https://github.com/alfredopalhares/joplin-pkgbuild/pull/45. @hvksmr1996 I simply removed the Version line in there, since the spec describes it at optional. Does that sound reasonable?

Incorrect use of Version in your joplin.desktop file. It's meant to be version of free-desktop specs, not version of the application.

best mode: wget -O - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/laurent22/joplin/master/Joplin_install_and_update.sh | bash

and copy icon to your set.

I got exact the same error as Poetician earlier today. I think the dependency just had it's URL down. The Joplin package installs just fine for me now!

Hi,

Tried the yay install and got this:

I've got this error for running joplin-desktop :

@apolatynski

Please do pacman -Syu before

When trying to build the package, I get multiple errors about duplicate identifier 'Promise' like below:

tsc

node_modules/typescript/lib/lib.es2015.iterable.d.ts:217:11 - error TS2300: Duplicate identifier 'Promise'.

217 interface Promise<T> { } ~~~~~~~

../../../../node_modules/@types/es6-promise/index.d.ts:11:15 11 declare class Promise<T> implements Thenable<T> { ~~~~~~~ 'Promise' was also declared here. ../../../../node_modules/@types/es6-promise/index.d.ts:42:19 42 declare namespace Promise { ~~~~~~~ and here.

/usr/lib/node_modules/npm/node_modules/fs.realpath/old.js script had 2 errors when I tried to update to the release from 2020-01-21. Not sure if this is something that came with the Joplin build or whether something else on my system broke it.

The errors are on line 168 and 211 and easy enough to fix manually to get the build to work.

please fix .SRCINFO ;)

According to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/.SRCINFO

Pushing an edited PKGBUILD to the AUR without also updating its .SRCINFO will cause the AUR to serve stale metadata.

.SRCINFO files may be generated using makepkg.

$ makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO

Please make the necessary change soon.

I get this error:

failed to parse joplin: Line 30: key "pkgbase" can not occur after pkgbase or pkgname: pkgbase = joplin

@NutTool This should be fixed as of the update about 8 hours ago. This PKGBUILD doesn't use the npm package (which doesn't contain the desktop client) or the AppImage (which doesn't contain the terminal client). Instead it builds both from source.

The build process for the upstream is a little bit in flux at the moment and a change broke this package.

There appears to be an issue with the way npm is being run. I mistakenly filed a bug upstream: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/2263

Workaround for the current issue with .SRCINFO:

Clone AUR files from Git, remove the top block in .SRCINFO defining the old version of the package, makepkg -si and install manually. This should allow yay updates to proceed normally since it will not have to upgrade the package. yay seems to want to overwrite the .SRCINFO even if you make changes to it in your cache.

Maintainer simply needs to remove the duplicate block and push new manifest and then everything should be groovy.

I'm sorry but I am getting the same error :: Parsing SRCINFO (1/1): joplin failed to parse joplin: Line 30: key "pkgbase" can not occur after pkgbase or pkgname: pkgbase = joplin

And @louix in the .SRCINFO even if I remove the bottom (or the top one), it still throws off the same error (it's like it overwrites the .SRCINFO file when I try to install it with yay)

Also, gconf should be removed from dep list.

@ruigomes

I don't know why, but there are two "versions" of Joplin in .SRCINFO. Remove the bottom (old) one and it works.

I'm getting an error while trying to install this package:

:: Parsing SRCINFO (1/1): joplin failed to parse joplin: Line 30: key "pkgbase" can not occur after pkgbase or pkgname: pkgbase = joplin

I don't know what the problem is but AUR and yay still suggest the latest version still being 175. Chaotic not being built, either.

Thanks nirnakinho. This is my first time editing package builds. After your comment I realised what to do and it worked for me too. Cheers.

It seems the maintainer forgot to commit the updated joplin.desktop to the git repository. If one does manually modify joplin.desktop to update the included version number to 0.175, the build works normally.

I found that I needed to do 'updpkgsums' after I modified joplin.desktop. Then I was able to install it.

Building joplin... ==> Making package: joplin 1.0.175-1 (Tue 10 Dec 2019 18:25:44 AEST) etc ==> Validating source files with sha256sums... joplin.desktop ... FAILED

Thanks @masterkorp but I tried to remove it, and it keeps happening. With the new version it seems better (after fixing the sha256sum), but this is downloading and compiling way too much stuff. After 5 minutes I give up and will use the binary blob from Joplin for now :/

Hello @saimn

You have a npm lock from a previous installation, please clean your npm folder.

Hi, I cannot install v1.0.174, Installation gets stuck on this:

==> Lancement de build()…
[       ...........] - extract:yargs: verb lock using /home/simon/.npm/_locks/staging-c941594f

@project9501 What aur manager are you using?

I will be very gladly help your but through this chat its not the easyies, can you open an issue at https://github.com/alfredopalhares/joplin-pkgbuild/issues

If you do not have an github account, you can send me an email directly :)

@masterkorp I kind of figured but I'm not sure how to resolve? Like I gather there's a partial file somewhere but I don't know where -- it's not in the local cache dir and it's not where I have makepkg configured (/opt/aur). Can't "find" the file anywhere on the filesystem.

EDIT: Never mind, it was in /opt/aur/sources. We're good on this part at least.

@project32 this is a curl download error, its when downloading the package from the github repo.

I'm having the same error as @gwenlune, excepting version is 1.0.170 and the initial byte position 9848724.

I'm not sure if this is actually an issue with the package or a problem with curl, as I'm not sure but my initial download might have halted. I however can't find any residual file in any of the usual places so I'm kinda stumped.

@annata83, just

# rm -r /usr/share/joplin/resources/app/node_modules/sqlite3/.vscode/

Whoa, still works! Ok, I'll save this optimization for later package updates:

# sed -i '/\[options\]/aNoExtract = /usr/share/joplin/resources/app/node_modules/sqlite3/.vscode/*' /etc/pacman.conf

@annata83 Hello, I did remove the vscode folder in the new release.

@Self-Perfection How did you aprroach deleting vscode node module?

Hi! For me it is not possible to install the pkg because of lack of space! I tried 3 times. The result was the same. After filling 1.7 GB in /tmp, the installation attempt finishes with a very long error message of this type:

cp: error writing '/tmp/yaourt-tmp-compx/aur-joplin/pkg/joplin/usr/share/joplin/swiftshader/libGLESv2.so': No space left on device

==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().
    Aborting...
==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build joplin.
==> Restart building joplin ? [y/N]
==> -------------------------------

Bizarre! The partition has 23 GB of free space. (I utilize Manjaro.)

NB I don't know if it's important, but I have installed electron4. Nevertheless, joplin install his electron client.

Other way to reduce the size of the package would be to use the package `electron4' I think. joplin comes with its own copy of electron (about 100M uncompressed), and that might not be needed.

Another possible space optimisation of the install would be to have joplin compress its sources into a .asar (some kind of tarball for electron); but having the javascript uncompressed on Linux is a choice made by the author of Joplin, so it might be needed, or it might not.

Last space optimisation I can think of would be to have two different packages, one for joplin-desktop and one for joplin-cli as I don't think they share ressources, I might be wrong.

Cheers.

Version 1.0.170 is damn big for such a simple app! 600MB uncompressed!

I wonder if it can be stripped down. Most prominent is /usr/share/joplin/resources/app/node_modules/sqlite3/.vscode. As I can guess from file path this is some kind of IDE internal cache and is not required. And it takes almost 150MB - 25% of installed app size!

UPD: I deleted /usr/share/joplin/resources/app/node_modules/sqlite3/.vscode and Joplin still works perfectly fine.

@masterkorp https://qbin.io/detect-ltd-db3c

@veras can you give a more verbose error?

Tried building (with yay and makepkg) and it errors at "Running: "/home/user/.cache/yay/joplin/src/joplin-1.0.167/ElectronClient/app/node_modules/.bin/electron-rebuild" "

I can confirm as well that it's upgrading now. Thanks a ton for your work. It's much nice to have the application as a real package instead of an appimage.

@masterkorp it now builds and runs smoothly here. Thanks!

Great, It works for me now! Cheers

@johnfocker, I did update, can you please re test?

Same problem as @Nebucatnetzer here.

I have the error :

Error downloading sources: joplin

I don't find solution. Any idea ?

Per Hal5000, the package builds with the LTS node versions, electron desktop app works but the CLI gives us a module error: ~ $ joplin internal/modules/cjs/loader.js:638 throw err; Error: Cannot find module 'app-module-path'

As a workaround to this problem, consider installing nodejs-lts-carbon for building. Solved the problem for me.

Same here as @Nebucatnetzer.

Same problem as @Nebucatnetzer.

Hi all, Same problem as @Nebucatnetzer here for an update from 1.0.161 version to the latest

I can't install the 1.165 version. I get the following error even after a clean build:

Error making: joplin

@masterkorp: Could you please try this config in a clean environment? Since there are so many people with the same problem, it seems that it is something specific to your system. Maybe change the path to an absolute one?

I also don't see why joplin.desktop should be anywhere else than joplin.sh and joplin-desktop.sh. All three files are included in the source, yet joplin.desktop is the only file located in the parent dir according to your PKGBUILD. Can you check where the joplin.desktop is located on your system? I would assume it is in the parent dir, hence why it is working for you and failing for everybody else.

Thanks again

On my opinion you should remove these files from the package:

• /usr/share/joplin/resources/app/node_modules/7zip-bin-linux/arm64/7za
• /usr/share/joplin/resources/app/node_modules/7zip-bin-linux/ia32/7za
• /usr/share/joplin/resources/app/node_modules/7zip-bin-linux/arm/7za

@masterkorp Yes it does, if I don't edit the PKGBUILD file it fails. I just tried it again manually before posting this and still received the error:

install: cannot stat '../joplin.desktop': No such file or directory

@saturn_knight But cloning and using makepkg directly? Does it fail?

I still have the same problem as @hillbicks. I use Pikaur, but it also fails when I manually use makepkg. I have to remove the ../ before joplin.desktop in order for it to build successfully. I don't understand what is different between our environments that on @masterkorp system it fails without the ../ but on ours it fails with it. There must be something strange going on somewhere...

@masterkorp:

It basically says file or directory not found, package helper is trizen. If you look through the last two or three pages, there are several more people with the same problem. If you need further info or logs, just let me know.

Is there a way to install only the cli version of joplin?

@hillbicks I would remove it it would make it full.

But that is the actual command, it works with makepkg and AUR warpers like yay, what error are you getting?

@masterkorp Could you please fix the line 68 and remove the ../ before joplin.desktop in the pkgfile?

Thanks!

This doesn't build in a clean chroot.

Requires python as a makedep, and the following change:

from: install -Dm644 ../joplin.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/joplin.desktop

to: install -Dm644 joplin.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/joplin.desktop

@waasl I had the same problem, and your solution worked for me. Patching this would be nice.

Build fails if package python is not installed, the error is basically /bin/sh: python: command not found. So installing python fixed it for me. Maybe add it as a dependency?

Also worth noting that after installing I needed to fix line endings in the gui startup script:

sudo dos2unix /usr/bin/joplin-desktop

Looks like some new SHA's are in order for joplin-1.0.152-1 joplin.desktop and joplin-desktop.sh:

@heyeshuang Thanks, mate. The upgrade finished flawlessly.

hello @shscs911 , I faced same problem as yours. Did you ever run npm config set registry or change your npm mirror? Some mirrors haven't sync the joplin-turndown-plugin-gfm@1.0.8 yet. Running

npm config set registry https://registry.npmjs.org

to change it back solved this problem.

@masterkorp No, I tried to update Joplin via Pamac as usual, but got this error instead. If I build it using makepkg will it get installed over the existing application or installed as another application? Sorry, I'm new to this.

I cannot reproduce this. @shscs911

Have you tried building with makepkg -fc ?

My current version is Joplin 1.0.142. Cannot install the latest build (1.0.152):

npm ERR! code ETARGET
npm ERR! notarget No matching version found for joplin-turndown-plugin-gfm@1.0.8

Debug Log: https://pastebin.com/iTqHuPDB

sorry ignore my previous comment, it did not work.

the solution for me was to edit PKGBUILD line 68: from: install -Dm644 ../joplin.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/joplin.desktop

to: install -Dm644 joplin.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/joplin.desktop

(remove '../' before joplin.desktop)

I could not install: error something like: "cannot stat no such file or directory"

Fix: locate joplin.desktop install -Dm644 joplin.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/joplin.desktop

I was unable to build version 1.0.142-1 of the package without removing the ../ on the following line: install -Dm644 ../joplin.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/joplin.desktop

It gave an error that it couldn't stat the joplin.desktop file.

I think the PKGBUILD needs a runtime dependency on libxss; electron seems to link this library, and the desktop app won't start if it's missing.

changing pkgver to 1.0.142 and last sha256sums to 11f22415dc49793c7f024f48c0b20ee04aa32254ee0d0a87f843d5f12c7527a3 seems to be enough for updating to 1.0.142.

The following patch was used to build in a clean chroot per https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

https://pastebin.com/kLds16vg

@masterkorp is it possible to get this package updated to the right hash? the 135 version also has a bad hash sum check.

@sseneca Thank you, it is updating now.

@nunoun and @gonesimera

You have to replace the sha256sum that @petsam posted with the first sha256sum found in the array "sha256sums".

So it should look like this:

sha256sums=('01bf4f7e311d79b7e309e158c46b6dd321194eb17e90f09db3ff41b75f35fffa'
            ...)

I have exactly the same problem as @nunoun

==> Validating source files with sha256sums... joplin.desktop ... FAILED joplin-desktop.sh ... Passed joplin.sh ... Passed v1.0.135.zip ... Passed ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

If I use the sha256sum suggested by @petsam I get the following error: ==> ERROR: Integrity checks (sha256) differ in size from the source array.

@petsam thank you that worked.

the sums of desktop.sh is invalid

Validating source files with sha256sums... joplin.desktop ... FAILED

You can skip te validation string, however this should be fixed regardless

He forgot to update the sha sums. Should be fixed soon.

Looks like the validation error is back again. I could not install the latest update.

Validazione di source file con sha256sums... joplin.desktop ... NON RIUSCITO

hi, the sha256 checksum for joplin.desktop has changed again. The correct you should be: 6768685a318bbdf3f0681197ca189b04d8640ac2764bdb8459af70ec4691c67b

if you change this in PKGBUILD at least you are able to compile and install manually. BRGDS

@gatlinnewhouse I cannot reproduce this. erro. since the makepkg comamnd should be launched from the main folder, in the pkg/ folder

I had an error in the PKGBUILD that made it so it would not install (with yay) unless I changed:

install -Dm644 ../joplin.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/joplin.desktop

to:

install -Dm644 joplin.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/joplin.desktop

Hi, thanks for maintaining. It seems joplin.desktop file was changed. It doesn't psas validation anymore. The new sha256 sum is: 0bd2d4f055d99a5c989dc7d6bce5e1217f161f1e3cf09c9fb8b0045347baae88

Cheers!

Same Validation error... ==> Validating source files with sha256sums... joplin.desktop ... FAILED joplin-desktop.sh ... Passed joplin.sh ... Passed v1.0.125.zip ... Passed ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

Yeah I can confirm, pkgsums need to be updated

==> Validazione di source file con sha256sums... joplin.desktop ... NON RIUSCITO => ERRORE: Uno o più file non hanno superato il controllo di validità!

I had to remove '../' in front of joplin.desktop in L 68.

eureka! successfull compiled. thanks.

news to compile whithout workarounds?

Package conflicts found: -> Installing nodejs-lts-carbon will remove: nodejs

nodejs works fine. build with nodejs v11.5.0 was successful

nodejs-lts-carbon and nodejs conflict, users will be asked to uninstall nodejs and all packages that depend on it to install joplin. If it is no longer required, as iboyperson says, please remove it as dependency.

I had to install libxss for joplin-desktop to work. Without it, I'd get: ./joplin: error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

1.0.119 fixed the requirement of nodejs-lts-carbon. It build fine with regular nodejs.

Can the maintainer please update. It is now several versions behind. Thank you.

Two small comments:

• With nodejs-lts-carbon instead of nodejs this builds fine.
• gconf is required to run it, not only for building.

Does not build, 3 versions behind

FWIW this would not build on my system. With pdizzle's workaround it went through yay -S joplin successfully but wasn't actually installed.

Crossing my fingers for the next release.

for anyone that would like to install this, using nvm to switch node versions works. 8.12 lts did not work, 8.0 did for me:

https://github.com/creationix/nvm#usage

$ nvm install 8.0
$ nvm use 8.0

then makepkg or install from aur (yay, pacaur, aura, ...)

EDIT: installation succeeded, the desktop app seems to work, but CLI does not

The sqlite version issue should have been fixed on v1.0.114, but apparently it hasn't. Probably somebody who understands this better than me should submit an issue.

I just made a PR to update to the latest version. Node issues still seem to be in effect because of those sqlite compatibility issues expressed below, which I think is a Joplin based thing that needs to be fixed at that end, not PKGBUILD. Switching to Node 8 fixes that issue.

Fails too here:

Was able to install perfectly fine from pkgbuild with rsync and node 8.12.0. Using n to easily switch versions of node has been the best way for me to build. Updating AUR should be a go.

You updated the PKGBUILD in your git repo, but not in the AUR ;)

1.0.111 is out.

I also needed a newer nodejs version for Atom so I couldn't just revert to the lts package.

What I did was to: force remove nodejs -> install nodejs-lts-carbon -> install Joplin -> remove nodejs-lts-carbon -> install back nodejs

I installed this package on another machine that didn't build it, and had to manually install gconf, because joplin-desktop requires it to run. So gconf isn't just a build dependency it seems.

I don't install nodejs-lts-carbon... they will do a real fix?

This is a known issue: https://github.com/masterkorp/joplin-pkgbuild/issues/9

I am trying so solve "node-gyp" error with installing nodejs-lts-carbon.

BUT

yay -S nodejs-lts-carbon resolving dependencies... looking for conflicting packages... :: nodejs-lts-carbon and nodejs are in conflict. Remove nodejs?

About the 'node-gyp rebuild' error, just install nodejs-lts-carbon or another lts release. Worked for me!

The latest Firefox and Chrome Web Clipper extensions are only compatible with Joplin 1.0.99+ according to the developer: https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/629#issuecomment-397888946

This patch for PKGBUILD will allow you to install Joplin 1.0.99 and restore the Web Clipper functionality:

@bossi - Thanks for the link. I ended up getting Joplin to work by installing NVM using it to install nodejs-lts-carbon. Anyone who wants to try it check out these two links: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Node.js_ https://github.com/creationix/nvm

Once I followed those links, I removed the nodejs-lts-carbon in the two places it is listed in the PKGBUILD and the package installed and runs fine now.

@felmey - Yes, Joplin's dependencies have moved from nodejs to nodejs-lts-carbon, due to an incompatibility with the latest nodejs-10's sqlite libraries, it seems. This results in dependency conflicts if you have anything else installed that depends on nodejs as the two nodejs-packages are mutually exclusive.

Have a look here for further details.

There seems to be a problem with nodejs and it wants to install nodejs-lts-carbon but that breaks other dependencies... Anyone else have this problem?

Awesome, thanks @masterkorp,

I see you're listing your github repo in the sources, was just about to suggest. I'll continue using that space instead to track issues; happy to contribute back if I get a chance.

Best Regards~

Hello @bossi,

Yes, the AUR repository, its just for the code. I do have another repository on github https://github.com/masterkorp/joplin-pkgbuild

You are more than welcome to open an issue there, or even contribute directly.

Regards, Alfredo Palhares

Hi @masterkorp,

Not a problem at all, thanks for posting back though! I wasn't sure if this is the right channel to discuss these more specific, code-related issues (was looking for something closer to the repository itself but there isn't?). I have picked up your patch since, works all well on my end - I figured you had either seen my post or noticed the issue yourself. Cheers!

Hello @bossi,

Firts of all, sorry for the delay on the response, somehow I did not get propely notifed.

Thank you for you patch, but by now the packages has been fixed. Can you confirm it does work for you?

Thanks for setting up this AUR, masterkorp.

I'm not sure if this is the conventional way to contribute suggestions, please redirect me if not.

I ran into an issue where the CLI client failed to load a locales/index.js module (Error: Cannot find module '../locales/index.js' - officially discussed here).

As suggested by the author, the following patch in the PKGBUILD seems to fix the issue:
