This has long been broken, and upstream is unmaintained for 2+ years.

There seems to be a PyQt6 & Python 3.12+ compatible fork:

https://github.com/dwrobel/ldoce5viewer/tree/dw-qt6

A PKGBUILD for that source should be (re)submitted to AUR with a pkgname that does not refer to (py)qt5.

Last week I couldn't open the application anymore. But thanks to @yibe I reinstall based on yibe's PKGBUILD and works again! Thank you!

github has deprecated git:// access. Please, use git+https:// in the PKGBUILD

I haven't tried it, but qt5-webkit and python-pyqt5-webkit are now available in the AUR, though I'm not sure if it will work as before.

For those unwilling to build qt5-webkit, here's my (PyQt5-)WebEngine port of ldoce5viewer. There may be some glitches, but overall it's working fine. https://github.com/yibe/ldoce5viewer-pyqt5/tree/webengine

muio commented on 2022-11-26 14:12 (UTC)

In new versions of Qt, QWebKit and QWebKitWidgets have been deprecated in favor of QWebEngine and QWebEngineWidgets. Plus, some methods are now async by default

see: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebenginewidgets-qtwebkitportingguide.html

So, the program isn't going to work, unless it gets ported to one of new Qt versions.

(feel free to post this as an issue on the project's github repo.)

@abedi.h Replace git://github.com/purboo/ldoce5viewer-pyqt5.git with git+https://github.com/purboo/ldoce5viewer-pyqt5.git.

Hi! I encountered same issue but it fixed latest changes you added. Thanks!

@promike Sorry for the late response. The issue has been fixed by merging this PR: https://github.com/purboo/ldoce5viewer-pyqt5/pull/4.

If there are other people who also can't wait for the developer to wake up, here's a patch. (I'm using what yibe suggested)

md5sums=('SKIP' 'f3a9b8cfef1c1f70938f401ac047072d')

prepare() {
cd "${srcdir}/${_reponame}"
patch --forward --strip=2 --input="${srcdir}/package.patch"
}

The patch itself: http://ix.io/3LtB see you at the next update
