Arch Linux User Repository

PSA: For 26.01.07 it might be needed for now to use wine-staging and remove the wineprefix in ~/.local/share/wineprefixes/pkhex. Also since PKHeX updated to dotnet10 and this is still not in winetricks you need to install this manually with pkhex wine <path/to/dotnetinstaller.exe>

I'll be testing for the coming few updates if both of these issues get fixed.

PSA: after updating the pkhex package, run pkhex update in the terminal to update the executable. This is needed as I can't write in home directories during install.

SSL certificate was expired, it's fixed now.

Build failing right now due to expired certificate from the download server. Github releases don't have binary version...

-> Downloading PKHeX.tar.gz... curl: (60) SSL certificate OpenSSL verify result: certificate has expired (10) More details here: https://curl.se/docs/sslcerts.html

curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and how to fix it, please visit the webpage mentioned above.

No PKGBUILD does ever need to add bash as a dependency. bash is a dependency of the base package and therefore must be installed on any arch system.

@R0dn3ys

I have the following suggestions for your PKGUBILD:

1. Do not remove the pkgver from the archive name. Any downloaded archive should be numbered with the pkgver.
2. Edit the launcher script so that sed can be used to replace @VERSION@ with the version of the package we're building
3. Make the license() SPDX compliant, as is requried by all PKGBUILDs
4. Add bash to depends()
5. Add provides=(pkhex). It is not enough just to have two packages conflict with each other, they also need to provide one another, especially if its a normal, bin, and git triad of packages.
6. Despite not having any ELF files in this package, the PKHeX.exe is a 64bit PE32+ executable. Thus, this requires an x86_64 system to run.

Thanks! A minor bug with the symlink/shortcut, the a in application is lowercase and fails to open.

Download link should be fixed now, moved the server over to a new domain but forgot to update the download link

The PKHeX.exe download link's website is down.

Tracked by wine upstream https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56042, which includes a patch to fix the issue. I build wine with the patch and it works perfectly. We need to wait until it gets merged into master.

Even after installing dotnet8 with Wine 9 (which is now available) the latest version still breaks whenever you try to view a pokemon. Then the GUI breaks entirely after the first load attempt.
