I will maintain this until it stops working, but this package should be considered "legacy" and the new Reference Manager (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mendeley-reference-manager) preferred.

To avoid crashs when opening PDF's, and hangout on exit install mendeleydesktop-bundled which packages Qt provided by the upstream.

PDF library is still bundled. Can you download the sources and run ./bin/mendeleydesktop to get upstream defaults and report back?

Zento commented on 2018-05-26 12:30 (UTC)

I have updated from a package with the bundled libraries and with the latest PKGBUILD (and presumably since using the shared libraries), mendeley crashes while opening a PDF in the internal viewer. Viewing the PDF via "Open file externally" works, resetting mendeley did not show any different behaviour.

@xgdgsc it had less lines of code thought :)

About CPU. Yes it runs 100% CPU both with the bundled packages and with the native ones. Somehow poll function from libc gets stuck at it. At least that what I got from gdb and strace. Thats the main reason I haven't pushed the update in the first place :)

In the next few days I wont have time to investigate this in more detail.

xgdgsc commented on 2018-05-25 03:08 (UTC)

This version seems to have constant 100% CPU usage on my machine. Do you have this issue?

xgdgsc commented on 2018-05-25 02:49 (UTC)

@akstrfn Your previous commit breaks the simple workflow of changing version number and runing updpkgsums. I changed that part back.

@rpanerai I think that duplicating packages is not the way to go. @xgdgsc maybe add me as co-maintainer?

rpanerai commented on 2018-04-25 20:19 (UTC)

Hey akstrfn, I tried your PKGBUILD and I really like it! Small package and better desktop integration. You should consider creating an AUR entry for that.

akstrfn commented on 2018-04-24 17:59 (UTC)

Glad it worked. I have to improve pkg some more but nothing that should affect the functionality of the app. With new pkg app takes much less space since it uses shared libraries by default and removes the bundled ones :)

Thank you, thousand times! Open file externally and all other things works very well with your last PKGBUILD.

akstrfn commented on 2018-04-23 18:04 (UTC)

Try the pkg I provided, it should work better. You can solve the LD_LIBRARY_PATH the same way as before (look in up the comments).
