Can confirm that as @duhbLow7 said, @zc0rp10's PGKBUILD fixes the issue.

@damonh thanks for mentioning Lando, had never heard of it but sounds interesting.

As I couldn't make it work, I switched to Lando. It's really awesome!

package is broken as is. typos in PKGBUILD. @zc0rp10's PKGBUILD fixes this (and more!).

package is out of date. 5.63 is current version.

project has changed names multiple times and is now called just Local. Local By Flywheel > Local Lightning > Local WP > Local.

Hi, please update the package build according to this: http://ix.io/2qBe <-- UPDATED: 5.6.3 now

I've:

* Included chmod 4755 command for chrome-sandbox in the package build so you can remove the pinned comment.
* Created a symlink in /usr/bin to the executable so local-by-flywheel actually shows up in dmenu and other simple launchers.
* Added the following missing dependencies: gtk3, nss, libjpeg-turbo, libxss, libxslt
* Corrected the license to custom: license=('custom:proprietary') as is appropriate according to Flywheel team. https://localwp.com/community/t/open-source-the-project-local-by-flywheel/216/9

The PKGBUILD references the rpm file incorrectly. If you download a copy, change the line:

rpmextract.sh ../local-5-6-2-linux.rpm

To:

rpmextract.sh ../local-5.6.2-linux.rpm

Note the dashes instead of dots. I made this change and it builds and installs fine.

I installed this package on a brand new Manjaro install and I got this error:

Have e-mailed pkg maintainer to ask if they plan to continue supporting this package or not.

There have been 6 releases since the last update to this package. I've requested this package to be orphaned. We are on version 5.5.3 at this time.

@duhbLow7 : Many thanks!

is an authentication agent running?

polkit and polkit-kde-agent were installed but the agent wasn't running. I've installed polkit-gnome and started /usr/lib/polkit-gnome/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1 manually, then I tried again to start a site and it worked.

are you using gnome?

No. I'm using i3wm. I was using KDE before.
