Important note: Is recommended to receive the following key before to install:

$ gpg --recv-keys DE7A44FAC7FB382D

Also is possible skip the verification, adding the flag for (e.g makepkg, yay) --skippgpcheck, --nopgpfetch, respectively.

Sorry @rellieberman. I use my arm machine too infrequently to routinely test every release.

rellieberman commented on 2024-06-13 16:56 (UTC)

Now with Arch Linux Ports getting started maybe its worth adding arch=aarch64 to the package itself. Serat, do you run arm as you daily driver? maybe you could test new releases if you have the time... :)

serat commented on 2024-06-13 14:27 (UTC)

Thank you for maintaining this. Just in case it is useful for someone, it works on aarch64 as long as you change "arch=(x86_64)" to "arch=(x86_64 aarch64)" in the PKGBUILD.

Hi Carlos, thanks so much for maintaining this package. With this version Lyx now supports Qt6, I tested and it works like a charm, better integration in DEs, e.g. Kde where Qt6 is by default, and most of the Qt apps are moving to v6. So, for me, there is no point in continuing with Qt5, to change it is pretty easy, just update the depends and change --enable-qt5 to --enable-qt6 and that is all.

I can confirm that @Rhinoceros PKGBUILD fixes the problem. The maintainer @carlosal1015 should just change the pkgbuild

The package installs org.lyx.LyX.metainfo.xml in /usr/share/metainfo by default, so do we need any manual installation of it at all?

nihil39 commented on 2024-06-01 07:31 (UTC)

Looks like appdata.xml got moved to org.lyx.LyX.metainfo.xml:

I have the same problem, should we move it manually?

Thanks @petris. Build also fails for me. I can confirm that the following change to the PKGBUILD fixes it

2.4.0-1 fails to build:

  install: cannot stat 'lib/appdata.xml': No such file or directory

Looks like appdata.xml got moved to org.lyx.LyX.metainfo.xml:

BTW, currently default servers not working, however the mirrors do, for example https://mirrors.ibiblio.org is working fine...
