Ohh I'm so sorry, my bad. Thank you for the quick response. I'm not quite used to aur myself, so didn't quite catch that. I'm not used to checking the upstream URL when looking at aur packages, guess you learn something every day after all. I'll try out plezy or plexamp instead. Thank you for your help!

The upstream repo clearly states: This repository was archived by the owner on Jun 1, 2022. It is now read-only. also I preferred pmp over Plex Desktop, Plex Desktop is the maintained app for Plex. I personally switched to plezy and plexamp on all my devices or just use the web GUI. Sorry that I kept this package alive for a long time and that I didn't delete it from aur when I was maintainer, I just couldn't find where...

When attempting to fresh install, I get an error related to attempting to download from artifacts.plex.tv. When trying to access the link directly in browser, an error 1002 from cloudflare occurs. DNS points to local or disallowed IP.

The IP it's trying to pull from is this: https://artifacts.plex.tv/web-client-pmp/183-045db5be50e175/buildid.cmake Attempted to install package through yay, on CachyOS.

fails to build even with CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5:

-- Could NOT find BREAKPAD (missing: BREAKPAD_INCLUDE_DIR BREAKPAD_LIBRARY) 
CMake Error at CMakeModules/utils.cmake:25 (get_property):
  The LOCATION property may not be read from target "PlexMediaPlayer".  Use
  the target name directly with add_custom_command, or use the generator
  expression $<TARGET_FILE>, as appropriate.

Can be easily fixed with a flag like this https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=fuzzylite&id=c2f22b0e1a5b099bf5765f26bdd7b037797b244d

@ombre -- Broken due to cmake changes, minver=3.5. (CMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5)

even if you override however, cmake produces a error: [CMakeModules/utils.cmake:25 (get_property): The LOCATION property may not be read from target "PlexMediaPlayer".]

Also, the added deps: aur/google-breakpad

NVM, should be using plex-desktop instead

Anyone else getting a cmake error when building?

Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 has been removed from CMake.

@ipaqmaster you need to rebuild the package as said a few post below
