Please report bugs/patches on GitHub/AUR-openboard it's a quicker way to reach me :)

@fsiegert thank you!

Sorry about the slow response, I have finally managed to find the time to update my installation and fix the issues with OpenBoard compilation here. At the same time I have updated to OpenBoard 1.6.2. Please give the latest version a try and let me know if there are still any issues.

Fails build. Possible workaround in the issue

https://github.com/bartoszek/AUR-openboard/issues/12

There is a new Quazip packages, with new directory names. Please, modify the quazip.patch!

Thanks! Is working now.

Hi @luuuciano, I hope I have now traced this ffmpeg down (+ fixed another poppler version problem along the way). You can probably remove the pkgignore now and retry. :)

Ok... so, it is time to implement some pkgignore I guess... c ya!

It would be better to go back to 1.6.1-4 and make 1.6.1-5 when the patch is made? is that possible (to not see it for ever on update warnings, or some people trying to compile it several times) What is the point of something no one can compile? (at least for regular up to date archlinux user?)

Hi,

I'm not sure what's going on, but this build fails for me. Errors in compiling src/podcast/ffmpeg/UBFFmpegVideoEncoder.cpp. Also problems in src/pdf/XPDFRenderer.cpp which may need tweaking of poppler.patch?

Everything is up-to-date. My gcc:

$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 11.2.0

HTH :)

P.S.: The first problem has already reported been upstream: https://github.com/bartoszek/AUR-openboard/issues/10

@gerost Sorry about the late reply, this is fixed now based on a patch from openSUSE (cf. https://github.com/OpenBoard-org/OpenBoard/issues/560).

@tombenko Indeed, this is a new problem with latest ffmpeg for which there is no patch yet upstream: https://github.com/OpenBoard-org/OpenBoard/issues/561 I'm subscribed to that upstream ticket and will include any patch that is provided there.

Broken again, now with az AVStream member error. Issued on GitHub.

poppler 22.01.0-1 (in arch extra since yesterday) breaks the build because poppler now uses c++17, while openboard does not. Workaround: downgrade poppler to 21.11.0-1.

@bartus Interesting, I didn't know. It's probably not worth a new package version, but we can fix it in the next commit?

@fsiegert: One addendum, desktop-file-validate complains about using extension in icon name:

$desktop-file-validate openboard.desktop
openboard.desktop: error: (will be fatal in the future): value "OpenBoard.png"
 for key "Icon" in group "Desktop Entry" is an icon name with an extension, but
 there should be no extension as described in the Icon Theme Specification if the
 value is not an absolute path

@fsiegert: sic! I must have a brain aneurysm or something, as I saw the invers of what the commit was (－_ლ) of course it's right.

@bartus: Thanks for taking a look. From what I understand it's not redundant -- actually quite the opposite: because we are moving the icon into /usr/share (and it thus won't exist in /opt/OpenBoard/), the desktop file needs to lose the reference to /opt/OpenBoard/. Or am I misunderstanding your point?

@fsiegert: isn't b35f243d5e22 redundant, as we already copy the PNG icon to /use/share ? https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=openboard#n51

Thanks a lot. Now works

@bartus That's strange indeed... I was assuming base-devel is automatically installed if makepkg is available, but apparently not. So I guess this is indeed redundant and we can remove it at the next iteration.

@dS810 You should install base-devel in any case (cf. link from bartus).

@fsiegert Now it works as expected. Thank you!

@fsiegert: including patch in makedepends array is a bit funny not to mention redundant, as it gets installed with base-devel group alongside gcc, as prerequisite to build any AUR package. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ @@wiki@@

@dS810 Can you try again please? I have added 'patch' as explicit dependency.

I can't install this package. Error Message: (Line 28. Command not found)

@fsiegert You are right! Sorry, I've made a bit of a mess with the installation steps! Thanks again for your quick reply.

@fbettio It works fine for me, and your error message looks like you installed OpenBoard, then updated your system (including libpoppler) and then didn't recompile OpenBoard, such that it doesn't find the correct libpoppler.

Btw... rebuild-detector can help with these problems: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rebuild-detector

Hi. I could not install openboard. An error appeared caused by the dependencies:

$ openboard 
openboard: error while loading shared libraries: libpoppler.so.107: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The latest poppler installed on my archlinux is 21.03.0-1 (libpoppler.so.108).

Did I do something wrong? If no, could you check it?

Thanks a lot in advance, Fabio

@bartus: on Manjaro this does the trick, thanks!

@odabaz: If you intend to stick with quazip:0.9 or you are on Manjaro which is slacking off with updates, you have to roll back openboard package to commit preceding one introducing quazip:1.0 update: fa5004fdc2cc

git -C /tmp clone https://aur.archlinux.org/openboard.git
git -C /tmp/openboard reset --hard fa5004fdc2c~1
(cd /tmp/openboard; makepkg -i)

As far as I know there isn't any aur-helper that can perform package reset for you, so manual is the only way here.

Hey, I'm currently not able to install openboard. The thing is that I dont know how to apply the quazip.patch to my system. It's not quite simple as it might look. My current quazip package is quazip 0.9.1-1. I'm facing a similar issue as @rs410ga was.

Current packages state:

@bartus, everything is fine, works.

Please report bugs/patches on GitHub/AUR-openboard it's a quicker way to reach me :)

I've updated quazip.patch please check how it's working for you champs.

Thank you @iyanmv!

Okay, so my trick wasn't a good idea. I though it was a simple path change and that quazip 1.x would be backwards compatible with quazip 0.x, but it's not the case. See:

https://github.com/stachenov/quazip/issues/92

Note the comment of current quazip maintainer in Arch:

"We don't keep old versions of libraries in the official repos unless there are official packages that need them and can't be ported, I don't see why it should be different for quazip."

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/68196

So the only solution is to add a new PKGBUILD in AUR using the old 0.9 version. I did that, and you can find here:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/quazip-legacy/

So the only thing left to do is to changed in the PKGBUILD of openboard.

the trick (symlink) @iyanmv provides seems to work, but later on i get the following error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lquazip5

any help would be appreciated.

@rs410ga as a temp solution add the following symbolic link: sudo ln -s /usr/include/QuaZip-Qt5-1.0/quazip/ /usr/include/quazip5

I don't know if the new paths in quazip package are intended or not. I opened a bug just in case. It would be nice if they add the previous symbolic link in the package. If not, I guess updating the quazip.diff patch with the new directory should do the trick as well.

quazip received an update on 5 Oct.

Upon rebuilding openboard:

src/adaptors/UBExportDocument.cpp:43:10: fatal error: quazip.h: No such file or directory

and:

pacman -F quazip.h
extra/quazip 0.9.1-1 [installed: 1.0-1]
    usr/include/quazip5/quazip.h

TIA for any help.

I installed rebuild-detector but the pacman hook fails to notify me when openboard needs to be rebuilt. I guess this has to do with this (I quote from the github repo): "For performance reasons, the ldd check is only executed against direct dependencies of the packages that are being updated in this pacman transaction" At the end, I always end up realizing I need to rebuild when I try to open it and it fails.

@fsiegert My bad, didn't see that before. Will search more carefully next time.

@Andhika24kd You will have to rebuild OpenBoard to take the updated Poppler library into account. This was just discussed between iyanmv and bartus in the last comments, and the recommendation would be to use e.g. rebuild-detector to get notifications when AUR packages have to be rebuilt due to pacman -Syu updates.

Openboard complains about missing libpoppler.so.101 file but newer version (libpoppler.so.102) is already there. Is it the expected behaviour (using fixed version instead of the latest one)? Is there any workaround? Sorry but I'm kinda new to Linux.

@iyanmv: if you would like to pop pkgrel, be my guest :) But would rather propose using rebuild-retector to get notification upon pamcan -Sy about packages that need to be rebuild.

Once I've created an automatic update script with Travis for gimp-develop-git and won't bother again.

Would it be possible that when a rebuild is necessary, pkgrel is increased? I always discover that I need to rebuild when I need to use the app (in the middle of a video call) and compilation takes a bit...

@fsiegert I resolved it. See my edit. Sorry for the noise.

@pogojotz @woodchip That's weird, I still can't reproduce it. Unfortunately I don't know enough about the qmake build system here, so I don't understand why it doesn't find them if qt5-webkit is installed. Let me know if you figure anything out in your debugging.

@fsiegert I see exactly the same error. qt5-webkit is installed.

EDIT: Nevermind. I have a second Qt installation for work and have its bin path added to $PATH so the the line qmake OpenBoard.pro -spec linux-g++ used the wrong qmake version. I changed the line to /usr/bin/qmake OpenBoard.pro -spec linux-g++ now it compiles.

@woodchip It builds for me, so I'm a bit puzzled:

[...]

Your message sounds a bit like qt5-webkit isn't installed, but that's a dependency, so you must have it installed, no?

Does anybody else see this build problem?

Getting the following when trying to install:

This is a lovely app, please be for ever

Hello, I am trying to build version 1.5.3 but have an error message when "makepkg -si" at some point. error message is : "src/pdf/XPDFRenderer.cpp: Dans le constructeur « XPDFRenderer::XPDFRenderer(const QString&, bool) »: src/pdf/XPDFRenderer.cpp:51:42: erreur: no match for « operator= » (operand types are « std::unique_ptr<GlobalParams> » and « GlobalParams* ») 51 | globalParams = new GlobalParams(0); " can anyone help me ? regards

@bartus, @fsiegert: I have installed rebuild-detector and after that, I have run the checkrebuild command that show me differents apps to be rebuilt but none was Openboard or Libpoppler. What more can I do? thanks

@fsiegert: How can I rebuild the package Openboard to include the new libpoppler library? I am relatively new in Arch, thanks

@diegocaja, @fsiegert: you should check out rebuild-detector this will monitor system upgrade process and report which AUR packages need rebuild base on missing libraries/symbols. I'm currently working on a patch that will fully automate this process

@diegocaja: Yes, rebuilding the OpenBoard package should help. Let us know if it doesn't help.

I think there is a new version of "libpoppler" that went out and this new message appears in my terminal when a try to open Openboard "openboard: error while loading shared libraries: libpoppler.so.90: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". For now, I solved this problem making a copy of libpoppler.so.92 and changing the number 92 for 90. But I wanna know if there is a better solution like rebuild the OpenBoard package or something similar? Thanks

@bartus: Thanks, seems to work fine for me, please do push them to AUR.

@fsiegert: I've made few tweaks here and there, could you check how they're working for you. Then I'm going to import them to AUR.

https://github.com/bartoszek/AUR-openboard/tree/drop_all_internall_deps

list of changes:

• use system quazip instead of the internal one.

• replace xpdf with poppler

• drop OpenBoard-ThirdParty and move libs.pri to the main repo.

• add install script

• fix $.desktop file ownership

Particularly please check how pdf drag&drop import is working.

@bartus Done. Thanks for joining and helping out with the packaging! Feel free to improve my very simple attempt of a PKGBUILD.

@fsiegert: Sure, count me in.

@fsiegert Just checked on the latest update, and no, doesn't fix it, sorry... I'll try @bartus's suggestions on the GitHub issue I posted concerning making a debug copy and disabling gcc's optimizations

@bartus I have included this patch in the PKGBUILD, thanks for the pointer... also for making me realise that there is a recording function at all. This is quite neat!

As for pushing packages to GitHub: while I'm generally a big fan of GitLab/GitHub for larger software projects, I would find this parallel structure a bit of overkill for the PKGBUILDs of the relatively minor packages I'm maintaining. For those I'm fine relying on the git repo and comments functionality provided by AUR. But I understand that it might be useful for you to be able to push changes more directly. Since you seem to be interested in OpenBoard on Archlinux I was wondering whether you'd mind me adding you as co-maintainer to the package in AUR?

@fsiegert: I made a PR with some critical memory leak patch. Please include it in PKGBUILD: https://github.com/OpenBoard-org/OpenBoard/issues/222

btw. perhaps you would like to push all your AUR packages to GitHub, to benefit from issues/PR feature, I've just made this move with some simple bash script (70+ packages) you can find my scripts here

@chilledfrogs I have updated the PKGBUILD to version 1.5.3 released yesterday. Do you want to give it a try whether that happens to fix your problem?

Note a new message about QObject::connect with the very latest update, idk what that's about.

Concerning Valgrind, the output is so verbose that I'm putting it elsewhere (fun fact: it made Gist almost crash on my side, then throw a 405 when I wanted to actually save it, and Pastebin just crashed on my side): https://keybase.pub/chilledfrogs/valgrind_openboard.log

The best part of all? It actually runs fine when invoked by Valgrind, except when I tell it to proceed with Open-Sankoré importing (yes, for whatever reason, it "finds" Open-Sankoré files on a fresh install systematically unless I delete .local/openboard/, but then on the launch after that it does it again), in which case it crashes...

I am rebuilding it hopefully really in debug mode as we speak, let's see if it gives any more info

And honestly at this point I guess I might as well bring it up on GitHub indeed xD

@chilledfrogs: Can't tell, run bt full in gdb after a crash, it will show the exact line that issue occurs. You can also trace execution with Valgrind vm tool (run valgrind --leak-check=full --show-leak-kinds=all --track-origins=yes openboard).

btw. It would be nice to move the discussion to github, for the devs to be able to make use of it

Just noticed - to build in debug mode, you need to append debug to every make invocation in build() function Check out debug branch on my github mirror.

@bartus Got this when run from gdb:

Standard memory leak or something else?

@bartus I will try and see what happens :)

It sure does look like it, and I tried to use gdb but admittedly I'm not incredibly experienced with it; the reason why I'm asking for help here and not on OpenBoard's GitHub is the fact that they don't seem to care too much for any distro apart from Ubuntu, which is in my view a bit stupid, but hey...

@chilledfrogs, You should try building with options=(debug !strip) added to your PKGBUILD. Gether output from gdb openboard and report your findings upstream. It looks like a memory leak, which is an abundant issue throught openboard code.

Thanks @bartus, I have included the 218.diff patch from upstream.

For the increase of fps of the podcast stream I would ask you to take the discussion upstream.

@postblue Thanks for the heads-up, I have fixed the desktop symlink issue. For the i18n I'm not doing anything manually, but just follow the canonical OpenBoard installation. So if that's not working, it would be good to discuss this with the OpenBoard developers.

@chilledfrogs I'm afraid I don't know why this crash happens. Obviously, it doesn't happen to me.

Also, could we have a patch to increase fps of the podcast stream ...

https://pastebin.com/B7qHjw9p

There is a problem with src/podcast/podcast.pri which calls Ubuntu specific command lsb_release. It's a conditional that test for ffmpeg version above 2.8.

patch: https://github.com/OpenBoard-org/OpenBoard/pull/218.diff

Also depends is missing qt5-xmlpatterns

I'm still having the exact same crash on launch, could anyone please help me? I have no idea even where to start...

I just went through the update to 1.5.2. I noticed that /usr/share/applications/openboard.desktop appears to be a broken symlink to a file in the building directory (using pikaur, I would have to try with makepkg as I don't see where this behaviour might come from reading the PKGBUILD).

There is a problem with the handling of i18n. Using GNOME, my locale is fr_FR (UTF8) and I set App/PreferredLanguage=fr in .local/share/OpenBoard/OpenBoardUser.config. I first thought the locale file was not found, but I found out by opening the .deb that the .ts files in /opt/openboard/i18n should be .qm ones. Is it possible that the translation files are not compiled?

Really sorry to bother, but this package still fails on launch for me and I really have no clue why. When I launch it from the terminal, here is the output (before promptly crashing):

sAppSettings location:  "/opt/openboard/etc/openboard.config"
libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile
libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile
free(): invalid pointer

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I was hoping the latest build would fix it but no dice...

Thanks @madprog, I have added this patch, and taken the opportunity to update the package to version 1.5.1.

Best, Frank

I needed to apply this patch to have a successful compilation. It looks like the last qt5-webkit moved the QtWebKit/QWebView header to QtWebKitWidgets/QWebView.

Please use and amend this patch at will ;)

@mgisbers Thanks, this dependency is added now. Can you let me know if it still doesn't work?

Seems like it needs sdl as dependency:

[...] /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lSDL collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [Makefile.Release:1323: build/linux/release/product/OpenBoard] Error 1 [...]

@kbk Thanks, this dependency is added now.

@fsiegert

There is an extra dependency for openboard 1.4.0-1:

libfdk-aac

Thanks
