@fisherman734 This is being tracked here: https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/1385

nim got recently updated from version 2.0.8 to 2.2.8. nitter-git does build with nim 2.2.8 (with lots of warnings) but the resulting binary just crashes on start with a RegexError. Downgrading to nim 2.0.8 restores the ability to build a working nitter binary.

This is better:

File:/usr/lib/tmpfiles.d/nitter.conf

# Guest Accounts
d /etc/nitter 0750 nitter nitter
f /etc/nitter/guest_accounts.json 0640 nitter nitter
L /usr/share/nitter/guest_accounts.json - - - - /etc/nitter/guest_accounts.json
# Configuration
f /etc/nitter/nitter.conf 0640 nitter nitter
# Cache
d /var/cache/nitter 0750 root nitter

If you still want to keep it as it is, for those reading this, you can create a drop-in file in /etc/tmpfiles.d/nitter.conf.

@ynakao Thanks for the heads up, I think I missed the deadline, but it's done.

redis will be replaced with valkey in about 14 days[1], so is it good time to update PKGBUILD to follow it?

And now that the auth.nim tweak was merged, 1164.patch file no longer needs to be applied. git diff: https://0x0.st/HhwK.patch

@ynakao Thanks for the patch, applied.

One of the latest commits means the videos work again, by the guest accounts are dead, you need a proper account.

See https://github.com/zedeus/nitter/issues/1155#issuecomment-1917167072

Here you are. https://0x0.st/H5MU.patch My local build works fine. Please review :).

That's a good idea. Can you contribute a patch to change it? The symlink in /usr/share/nitter/ needs to change.

Frankly, the main problem is that nitter broke videos on this branch, and there seems to be no way to get them back.
