@TomZander Good point. -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC is pretty ancient. Now this line is automatically commented out in the PKGBUILD.

@simonzack thank you for your answer. I indeed missed that comment.

I would argue that suggesting people change a system file is not the solution, though. Its a rather advanced work-around.

What about making sure that the default install doesn't have this line there? Because the default JVM doesn't accept it (anything later then 14 will fail with the defaults today).

I would guess a simple patch can be applied to comment out the line. That would actually solve it for new users.

@TomZander Read the pinned comment, to comment out -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC in /usr/share/pdfstudio/pdfstudio2021.vmoptions.

Starting this with the arch standard 'jre-openjdk' gives me an error on startup;

$ pdfstudio
Unrecognized VM option 'UseConcMarkSweepGC'
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.

At the time of writing the above package gives one version 17.0.1.u12-1.

@simonzack Good catch, now fixed.

The pdfstudio.desktop file still shows "PDF Studio 2019" instead of "PDF Studio 2021". Can this be updated? Thanks.

@flamusdiu This package is always expected to be the latest stable. People can cap their system at a certain version if that's what they want. Additionally package to facilitate patches to old packages or new installs of old versions can be made as pdfstudio-binN, but that's up to somebody else that wants them. They can be made from checking out an old commit from this package, but we don't have to create them in order to bump this one.

Also I don't see i686 builds any more so I've gone ahead with just the x86_64 build update. If they ever post binaries for old platforms we cat adjust, but again there is no reason to hold back the package for that.

@simonzack: nice find. I'll have to move the install to another package then update this one so those who do not want to install the newest version can fall back to that one.

I'll see what I can do about that if I get a chance soon. Being an adult sucks sometimes. ;)

I've also emailed PDF Studio to have them put the .deb link at the same place as before. So now if you just change:

_pkgver=2021
pkgver=$_pkgver.0.1

everything should work fine. I don't think there's a x86 package anymore.

A new .deb link is up, see https://kbpdfstudio.qoppa.com/deb-package-installer-for-pdf-studio/
