Arch Linux User Repository

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

I can't install because the package wants an old version of jq (3.2.2). 3.4 is installed

Since the update I am getting the error splitCommandString is not a function when trying to edit, search and sync in the CLI version.

I posted an issue on github https://github.com/laurent22/joplin/issues/8401 but it appears to be working on their end.

The current CLI version is actually 2.11.1 and not 2.11.11, but I'll have to take their word for it because when I try to run joplin version I get

(process:3806): VIPS-WARNING **: 16:06:22.871: unable to load "/usr/lib/vips-modules-8.14/vips-openslide.so" -- libopenslide.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

- /usr/share/joplin/node_modules/joplin/app/app.js
- /usr/share/joplin/node_modules/joplin/app/main.js

I was able to build the released version, 2.11.11 with the PKGBUILD from https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=joplin-beta by changing: pkgver=2.11.11, then:

$ updpkgsums
$ makepkg --install

I am having problems building the package. Here is the error I am receiving:

error Couldn't find package "@joplin/utils@~2.11" required by "./package.tgz" on the "npm" registry.

Any ideas?

I've tried version 2.10.18-1 and the GUI didn't show up. I needed to close it and reopen it few times for it to show. I've rolled it back to the previous version since I don't have time to investigate (might be related to the system upgrade I did at the same time). When doing that, it complained that the config files are newer. I then removed ~/.config/Joplin and ~/.config/joplin-desktop to start fresh (beware that this will delete all your notes and plugins, which is not an issue if you sync them on the cloud). Update: it's doing it also with the previous version. There are quite a few issues with latest gnome and app in fullscreen mode. It seems that if I don't use the app in fullscreen then it opens up fine.

Joplin v2.10.17 has been "Released". I can't flag it as others have been flagging the "Pre-Release" versions.

For people with error:

==> Missing dependencies:
-> nodejs>=17.3

You need to install newer version of nodejs. I had nodejs-lts-gallium (v16) but newer version is required. This should probably be fixed in pkgbuild as it states that v16 is ok.

It looks like joplin needs openslide added to the dependencies. I'm getting this error:

I receive the following build error:

EDIT: This was an issue with my DNS configuration (systemd-resolved); following the steps under 2.1 DNS allowed me to complete the build. However I am now experiencing the same issue as @Gabscap.
