I had to install the following packages to make it work: gtk libstdc++5 libtiff4 libgsf I had an similar error like described by xione, komitaltrade, nipsky and YAOMTC. This page helped me to figure it out: https://github.com/bhush9/lightworks-arch

As far as I can tell this no longer supports older intel chipsets. The programme runs/starts but there is no graphical response, having to force quit with ALT+F4. Is there a link to an older version or is this now incompatible with arch linux?

komitaltrade commented on 2014-12-29 08:27 (UTC)

Is it possible to expect working version (everything is frozen on startup, entire DE should to be killed).

nipsky commented on 2014-12-23 17:34 (UTC)

Same here, get blank screen (opening in the background, btw) when I open it. No console output and nothing special in ~/Lightworks/Logs/error.log

YAOMTC commented on 2014-12-21 05:46 (UTC)

I installed this, and the screen just goes blank when I run it. I actually have to hit Alt-F4 to exit it, the standard Windows shortcut...? Weird. I tried running from the terminal to see if I could get any error output, but nothing prints there. Instead of a black screen, I get a frozen image of the desktop with the terminal I tried to run it from, until I hit Alt-F4. There's some kind of error log for lightworks right?

For anyone interested in following the betas: you can install the lwks-beta package and I will try my best to maintain it up-to-date. Also, an interesting fix for the latest beta is: "Fixed memory handling on Linux kernels 3.14 and higher. This resolves the issue with very poor performance".

I simplified the PKGBUILD a bit. Feel free to point any errors. I added a conflicts with 'lightworks' because I am almost sure we can't have the stable and beta versions installed at the same time. Also, because other packages with folders named "lightworks" would surely have a file conflict with this one.

The problems I see: 1) provides should be an array, it should be like this: provides = ('lightworks'). 2) libtiff4 isn't a dependency anymore. They now support running the newest libtiff. 3) Consider removing that libcurl symlink workaround, that x86_64-linux-gnu folder is surely not the best way of fixing any problem. And the bug it workarounded probably is fixed by now. 4) That command for creating folder never worked. The folders already exist, so it just creates a folder named "{Preferences, Audio Mixes}". Consider using chmod a+rw for giving write-read permissions to them, like the postinst file does. 5) Move the udev folder inside /lib to /usr/lib/, this will make namcap stop complaining. 6) Namcap says that ffmpeg and libgsf aren't needed and the control file also doesn't list them as dependencies, so consider removing them.
