@simona, makepkg says “can't import [key fingerprint]”? Strange, it works on my machine. makepkg has a --skippgpcheck option if it helps.

done and ok, but same error during install

@simona, does gpg --recv-keys 72CE56ADD3F7AB42E50EF22BCD3A6DF75742FDB1 not work? It seems to on my machine. What keyserver are you using?

With the latest update of this packaging recipe targeting the 2.24.0 upstream release, this package is no longer including support for any game, cf. https://wiki.debian.org/Games/PlayIt#Git_repository

I suggest packaging games collection in addition to the core software, a list of known collections can be found here: https://git.dotslashplay.it/scripts/about/#game-scripts

Without at least one collection installed, ./play.it ≥ 2.16.0 can not be used to generate package for any game.

Sorry, I won’t maintain this package myself: I am not an Arch Linux user, so I don’t see myself as fit for the maintenance of AUR packages.

@vv221

Can you support this package yourself? I gave up ownership from him if you can do it better.

For packaging purposes, I recommend using the tarballs provided here instead of the ones provided by our GitLab instance: https://downloads.dotslashplay.it/releases/

Unlike the automatically generated GitLab tarballs, these ones are reproducible and signed using my GPG key. You can rebuild them locally using make dist.

Anyone willing to actively maintain this AUR package should contact me, then I can add them to the recipients list of an e-mail sent on each ./play.it release (this won’t spam you, our regular activity is 1~2 releases every month). An alternative would be to follow our Fediverse account: @playit@fediverse.dotslashplay.it.

Another tip: pandoc is no longer used to generate the manpage, it can be dropped from makedepends.
