Thanks all for the assistance! Package has been updated. Was planning on spending some time tonight or tomorrow to fix but others beat me to it. thanks!

I can confirm that the same workaround used in plex-htpc works for this package as well.

Did the following curl + jq to get the snap URL with the ID and revision:

curl -sSLH 'Snap-Device-Series: 16' http://api.snapcraft.io/v2/snaps/info/plex-desktop | jq -r '.["channel-map"][] | select(.version == "1.112.0") | .download.url'

Here's a patch file that can be applied to make the package work again: https://gist.github.com/Sharparam/321f7c37f7e3e4c36189fe0b72457de4

hi, i manage the https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/plex-htpc package and faced the same issue, just managed to make it work by downloading and extracting from snapcraft, feel free to take a look and use the same approach, it should work for this one too.

OK even after importing the public key at repo.plex.tv key to my keyring, I cannot access the new plex repo to check it out and see where the deb file might be to fix this pkgbuild. If anybody has any ideas, please let me know. thanks!

it seems like there's a new repo at repo.plex.tv but i'm getting access denied errors. need to figure out how to access it, and then to build that access into the pkgbuild without needing root...

Seems you need to extract it from the flatpak manifest?

The current link was indeed extracted from the flatpak manifest. It seems flathub caches it somewhere, because flatpak installation still works. I'm not sure how feasible it is to download the package from flathub's cache

An alternative would be downloading the snap package instead, but would also require some more investigation

OK thanks for the link. good idea. I will try to revamp this as soon as possible. might take a few days though.

I think waiting for another repo is going to take forever. You could use the .deb package and repackage it. Here is the link for x86_64 from the official downloads page: https://downloads.plex.tv/plex-media-server-new/1.42.2.10156-f737b826c/debian/plexmediaserver_1.42.2.10156-f737b826c_amd64.deb

Edit: I did not realize this was the media server. Sorry for the trouble, unflagged for now. Seems you need to extract it from the flatpak manifest?

apparently, the issue is related to this: https://forums.plex.tv/t/debian-13-supported/929081/19

i think we just have to wait for a new public repo. the nightly-artifacts.plex.tv repo is not public as far as I can tell. If anyone has any add'l info please let me know.

the problem is that the file that downloads when I update the link the @linuxham's link is corrupted somehow - it won't extract.
