The package pulls in the renpy meta, so renpy-git or renpy6 should work for it.

I see that renpy6 is still available on AUR, and it is based on Python 2.

So maybe that version can be used for running this visual novel.

Maybe I'll check it out later.

It didn't when I approached it back when python2 lost support, I'm unsure if there were any updates. I haven't had the time to work on this in a WHILE

It seems renpy (v8) has been silently deleted from Arch repos without it being uploaded to AUR! :(

It was already based on Python 3, whereas this PKGBUILD uses a Python 2 library.

I'm not sure if it could work with Python 3, didn't check the game release tar yet.

Link for tarball is broken in PKGBUILD. Updated link for tarball is https://dischan.co/files/JunipersKnot_en_1.0_lin.tar.bz2

Evrything is fine now, as far as I can tell. Great work !

It's all pushed. Give it a try.

Ok, so, I've got temporary fixes for everything, but it's slightly unclean. The script at /usr/bin automatically changes the directory to /usr/share/junipersknot and runs it. This is obviously undesirable, but you can't execute it from another directory.

This is an active issue with the PKGBUILD. It's actually derived from the script used to run it. Going to /usr/share/junipersknot and running./"Juniper's Knot.sh" makes the application start normally. I'm probably going to modify the .desktop file to do this as a temporary measure, but running it from the commandline without doing that is problematic
