Could you change the location of the license file?

'install -dm 755 "${pkgdir}/usr/share/license/pdfstudio8/"' can be left out
The other line installs LICENSE.html to a non standard location, I believe it should be changed to:
'install -Dm644 resources/license.html "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/pdfstudio8/LICENSE.html"'

Please note that version 9 is located here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pdfstudio/

This is the final version of Version 8. So if you upgrade to Version 9, please use the new package.

Unless they do something to their build envio -- you shouldn't end up with spaces in the path names but went ahead and quoted them out.

Oops about the link. Dang, it's what I get. Fixed.

One more thing:
The PKGBUILD's line:
ln -s ${srcdir}/opt/pdfstudio8/pdfstudio8 ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/pdfstudio8

should probably be:
ln -s /opt/pdfstudio8/pdfstudio8 ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/pdfstudio8

Thanks! Could people who use asrcdir and/or a pkgdir containing whitespaces (it is possible...) run into trouble with unquoted ${srcdir} or ${pkgdir} variables?

@jdarch: i'm dumb. I forgot most of the install commands.

Btw, extract all the files into the ${srcdir} because it's removed after the package is built. Use the install command to move the files and folders to the ${pkgdir}. =)

Try it now; it should work properly! lol.

Thank you for updating. I had some issues with the PKGBUILD, as it apparently does not move the software to the pkgdir. My quick fix:

Okay, updated to 8.40 per request by @jdarch.

This now installed either the i686 or the x86_64 version.

Did some cleanup in the PKGBUILD to match the v9 of this package. Biggest change: it removed the jre packaged with it and uses the system one.

Any issues, just post here.

Nvm. I see it. It was in a different location. =\ Let me fix it up.

@jdarch: I don't have a DL for it. They removed it from the downloads on qoppa.com. They only have the 8.3.2 windows version up there. Get me a good link for it and i'll update the pkg.

pdfstudio8 should be pinned to the latest version (8.40) for people who do not have the license for 9

Working with @Tristelune to get a new package up. Moving this from pdfstudio8 to just pdfstudio (which will be version 9). I'll post a link here when it gets put up.

The PKGBUILD should be updated soon. I have sent a version for a review to the maintainer.

With grep version 2.19 (which is in the offical Arch repos since May 23rd), PDFStudio 8.4 fails to start. The following patch fixes the issue. https://gist.github.com/refox/4f1d0053ee98e2b90b1d

I found information regarding earning a free license on their FAQ and thought folks here might find it interesting: http://kbpdfstudio.qoppa.com/?p=318.

Fixed symblink in PKGBUILD.

Please note: You may need to run it first as Root (don't register it though if you have a license), then a second time as you user.

This installs the Demo version of the software. You must purchase a licence to fully use it.
