Arch Linux User Repository

Dropbox merged the updates for Nautilus 43, so their git is up to date, and now AUR is up to date. This makes my patch in the comments below unnecessary.

It's an interesting idea. It's always best to remove as many dependencies as possible but I noticed a number of things missing from the package if built using that command switch. It also didn't build at all without Python. Were you trying the build with any other changes besides what you had listed there?

Appreciate the comments I'll go through those changes when back to the office at the end of the week

I have same error at build time:

make[2]: Entering directory '/build/nautilus-dropbox/src/nautilus-dropbox-2019.01.31'

make: *** [Makefile:374: all] Error 2

But with the changes proposed by @javmorin it works like a charm.

Attempting to compile this package in a clean environment (via makechrootpkg) fails with "AttributeError: module 'gi' has no attribute 'require_version'" because that is provided by "python-gobject" which isn't included as a dep.

As the python bits are only used to build files that are then deleted, changing the build and install sections as follows allows the package to build without any of the python dependencies (python pygtk and python-docutils):

build() {
    cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
    ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
    make -C src/ 
}

package() {
    cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
    make -C src/  DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install

    # install the common license
    install -Dm644 COPYING "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/COPYING"
}

Those look like files that are supposed to belong to python-docutils. You need to figure out what package they belong to on your computer and then either update that package or remove the files manually.

$ pacman -Qo "/usr/bin/rst2html.py"

I have a problem updating nautilus-dropbox to the 2019.01.31-1 version. There is conflicting files when it installs python-docutils.

Hey there. CC-BY-ND is not a custom license, as it is provided by the 'licenses' package and made available at '/usr/share/licenses/common/CCPL/'. You may safely remove its installation and change license() array from "custom:CC-BY-ND-3" to "CCPL:by-nd"

@rafaelff: i had 'gtk3-optional-csd' package installed - which provides gtk3 and doesn't have wayland protocols dependency. Maybe you can add 'wayland-protocols' as direct dependency for this package and thank you for your work.

@notuxius: Your looking for the package 'wayland-protocols'. It is a dependency of 'gtk3', which is a dependency of 'nautilus', which is a direct dependency of this package. If you installed all dependencies of this package, you should have wayland-protocolos. Please check if your system is up-to-date ('pacman -Syu', or similar) and also check if you have any other dependecy problem in your system.

Error upon installing: checking for NAUTILUS... configure: error: Package requirements (libnautilus-extension >= 2.16.0) were not met: Package 'wayland-protocols', required by 'gdk-3.0', not found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables NAUTILUS_CFLAGS and NAUTILUS_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
