Arch Linux User Repository

I have a composite USB device. The drive that multiboot is refering to does not even exist. Is one of the "ports" of such composite USB device but it is unused. As you can see at the last line, the previous error still ocurrs: /usr/sbin/multibootusb-pkexec: line 22: 4785 Aborted (core dumped) pkexec --disable-internal-agent "/usr/bin/multibootusb" "$@" The content of the PKGBUILD is as follow [in case I forgot to include something]: # Contributor: Jonas Heinrich <onny@project-insanity.org> # Former Maintainer: sundar_ima <feedback.multibootusb@gmail.com> # Maintainer: Angel_Caido <geussepe at gmail dot com>> pkgname=multibootusb pkgver=8.8.0 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Boot multiple live Linux distros from a usb flash drive." arch=("any") url="http://multibootusb.org" license=("GPL") #depends=("python-pyudev" "python-pyqt5" "pyqt5-common" "python-dbus" "mtools" "util-linux" "parted" "p7zip" "python-six" ) depends=("python-pyqt5" "pyqt5-common" "python-dbus" "mtools" "util-linux" "parted" "p7zip" "python-six" "python-pyudev") sha512sums=("585bb8a4641535f1811e7a48d4e0bab3353ae8f8e4ca319dcbfd8b45b474927b341a52d4eaee3c3587af657231d861fa5977b49cf000b9f878b601748efd87cc") source=("https://github.com/mbusb/$pkgname/archive/v${pkgver}.tar.gz") package () { cd "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver" chmod 755 "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/data/multibootusb.desktop" python3 setup.py install --root="$pkgdir/" --optimize=1 }

@Angel_Caido, That means some issue is there with the software and not the package. Similar issue was reported by another user on github. It is being investigated. Is the same problem happen with other USB drive as well?

On Manjaro Xfce up-to-date, the GUI does not start. When running multibootusb-pkexec on the terminal, I get the following: Running multibootusb version 8.8.0 from installed system...

Even if GUI does not start, people still can use commandline options. Source --> http://multibootusb.org/page_guide/#using-mltibootusb-command-line-options

Tested on manjaro KDE with up to date system. With little trouble, I could figure out and solved the issue. Two packages "python-pyudev" (multibootusb specifc) and "dbus-x11" (KDE specific) have been added. Following PKGBUILD works absolutely fine for me and you may wish to update the package accordingly: pkgname=multibootusb pkgver=8.8.0 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="Boot multiple live Linux distros from a usb flash drive." arch=("any") url="http://multibootusb.org" license=("GPL") depends=("python-pyqt5" "pyqt5-common" "python-dbus" "mtools" "util-linux" "parted" "p7zip" "python-six" "python-pyudev" "dbus-x11") sha512sums=("585bb8a4641535f1811e7a48d4e0bab3353ae8f8e4ca319dcbfd8b45b474927b341a52d4eaee3c3587af657231d861fa5977b49cf000b9f878b601748efd87cc") source=("https://github.com/mbusb/$pkgname/archive/v${pkgver}.tar.gz") package () { cd "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver" chmod 755 "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/data/multibootusb.desktop" python3 setup.py install --root="$pkgdir/" --optimize=1 }

@Angel_Caido, Can you post the full error message for investigation.

Newer version 8.8.0 is released...

I haven't uploaded an updated PKGBUILD because I'm experiencing issues with the most recent version of multibootusb during testing. I get the error: Starting multibootusb GUI... QXcbConnection: Could not connect to display /usr/sbin/multibootusb-pkexec: line 22: 11420 Aborted (core dumped) pkexec --disable-internal-agent "/usr/bin/multibootusb" "$@" Any insights?

Newer version 8.7.0 is released.
