Arch Linux User Repository

For vis, all the recently mentioned issues should be fixed. PoBFrontend was updated to include a fix for the FONTIN fonts (https://github.com/ernstp/pobfrontend/commit/7e09fdc29d1e72e9122db71e41ba03fd54bf428b) and PathOfBuilding was also updated to fix the tooltips on Linux with the new UI (https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding/commit/2b76d3406a573339eb9166d428d027fee478db11).

Would it be possible to do a shallow clone of the PoB repo?

Implementing this functionality into makepkg directly was rejected [1]. While it could be implemented manually in prepare(), the pkgver() function does use git history. I would prefer not to stray from standard functionality.

Would it be possible to do a shallow clone of the PoB repo? The git repo it downloads is rather massive, and with slow internet it's annoying how long it takes. git clone https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding -b dev --depth=1 seems to download much less data.

Disable "Styled Tooltips with Flavour Text" in Application Options to workaround tooltips issue

A few minutes ago the nil error was fixed for the SetDPIScaleOverridePercent. Now tool tips are broken (when you hover over it).

Error:

In 'OnFrame': Classes/Tooltip.lua:502: bad argument #5 to 'DrawString' (invalid option 'FONTIN')
v2.56.0

Would it make more sense to use the master branch, instead of the default dev branch?

Ah I see: It does not make sense, otherwise the skill tree is not updated. :|

I will wait until everything is fixed :)

@TheVamp It seems to occur if "UI scaling override" is changed and probably hits a similar issue as the previous GetScreenScale() since DPI support isn't available on PoBFrontEnd. I can also confirm that after setting it back to "Use system default" and deleting the dpiScaleOverridePercent PoB launches but now automatically re-adds it on exit.

Does anyone has the same error, since the last update? On my Windows VM everything works, the AUR build crashes after the second start (Settings.xml was initialized).

Error:

In 'Init': Modules/Main.lua:644: attempt to call global 'SetDPIScaleOverridePercent' (a nil value)
v2.56.0

The Settings.xml under ~/.local/share/pobfrontend/Path of Building contains the value dpiScaleOverridePercent="0". If this value is deleted, PoB starts correctly. This value is automatically set after PoB is closed.

@ZereoX Thanks for the heads-up. The GetScreenScale patch has been reverted.

@iliekturtles PathOfBuilding pushed a fix on their end to provide a fallback option for GetScreenScale(): https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding/pull/9060

Would it be possible to revert the recent changes? Thanks.

EDIT: I have pushed the patch below. Stay sane, exiles.

@matthewq337 Still the same issue. I'm not exactly sure how pobfrontend and runtime-src work, but neither have been updated to include the GetScreenScale function added to PathOfBuilding-SimpleGraphic.

For those watching from home, here is a full patch for @siedge's solution. This will allow using the latest git releases instead of the older 2.56.0 tag.
