I think the problem was that the symlink linked to the local files that you had built in your git tree, which was another copy of the shell script than the one that would be installed when you do not have the git source code checked out. This is why the desktop file worked for you, but not for me.

Either way, it's indeed fixed now, thanks!

It's there but it was indeed broken, not sure how I didn't see that while testing.

Anyway, it's fixed now.

@cedricroijakkers aren't you building some older PKGBUILD? The symlink to /usr/bin is there.

You have an error in the file keystore-explorer.desktop:

Exec=kse

Should be changed in:

Exec=/usr/lib/keystore-explorer-bin/kse.sh

Or alternatively, in your installation script you need to create a symlink e.g. /usr/bin/kse to /usr/lib/keystore-explorer-bin/kse.sh. Right now, the desktop file does not work.

Awesome! Thank you for the update.

Hey everyone,

I finally updated this to use the script included upstream.

@noderat you might like keystore-explorer-git which I just finished first version of. It should work as upstream intended ;) and little warning, I install the app to /opt ;)

Please update the startup script that is being generated in the PKGBUILD to match the latest version as found at https://github.com/kaikramer/keystore-explorer/blob/master/kse/res/kse

Awesome, this way mime associations also work! Please make those changes!

The way that /usr/bin/kse is created, kse can not open file from command line. Which was really inconvenient for me. So I cahnged it to this:

cat `which kse`
#!/bin/sh
#cd /usr/lib/keystore-explorer-bin
java -jar /usr/lib/keystore-explorer-bin/kse.jar "$@"

I think there is no need to change directory before running it.

So maybe this or something similar could be incorporated into the package? :)

//edit:

Oh, there is even more recent version of startup script(s): https://github.com/kaikramer/keystore-explorer/blob/master/kse/res/kse

Hello everyone,

I finally created keystore-explorer-bin, which is upgraded to 5.4.2.

I will look into making this package a source-based package later on.

Update proposal to 5.4.2 :

 package() {

@urcadox I asked in IRC channel, and users suggest that we shall directly convert this package to a build-from-source one (as 5.4.1-2), and then create a new package. The new package can be cloned from this one so that it keeps the build script history, but essentially it's just a new package (so keystore-explorer-bin release will start from 5.4.1-1).

@FranklinYu That would make sense indeed. Not sure how to do this properly though.

This is a binary package; KSE is GPL so we can actually build from source, and move this package to keystore-explorer-bin.

@urcadox: done! Thank you.

@teekay Feel free to add me as a co-maintainer. :)
