If you are experiencing issues with the VPN then

  • flush the database and restart
  • disable the use of VPN in options and restart again

The movies list should now load properly

Hi, just wanted to let you know that sha256 verification fails for Popcorn-Time-0.4.4-linux64.zip.

Hi there, gtk2 can be removed from the dependencies (already the case in popcorntime and popcorntime-git). Thanks!

Hi all!

I have an issue here. Everything works fine except for the subtitles. I have enabled them, set the language but it shows with a white box with an X. Made an opensubtitles account, but it can't connect.

Awesome, thanks!

buzo commented on 2020-05-22 14:12 (UTC)

Thanks, libcg – fixed.

I can confirm that the following code should be removed:

# Move library files to /usr/lib/popcorntime
install -d "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/${_pkgname}/${pkgver}"
mv "${srcdir}"/lib/* "${pkgdir}/usr/lib/${_pkgname}/${pkgver}"
rmdir "${srcdir}"/lib

install -d "${pkgdir}/etc/ld.so.conf.d"
echo "/usr/lib/${_pkgname}/${pkgver}" > "${pkgdir}/etc/ld.so.conf.d/${_pkgname}.conf"

This fixes Firefox on Wayland and probably other programs that are loading the wrong libraries. Popcorntime still locates the libraries correctly in /usr/share/popcorntime/lib (checked with ldd). Please fix.

The forum post @michelesr was referring to was https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=254633 I guess (the link provided points to a 2016 thread).

There it was suggested to remove the following lines from the PKGBUILD:

install -d "${pkgdir}/etc/ld.so.conf.d"
  echo "/usr/lib/${_pkgname}/${pkgver}" > "${pkgdir}/etc/ld.so.conf.d/${_pkgname}.conf"

and it fixed the problem for the affected user.

They remark that the non-bin package doesn't do that ld.so configuration thingy. Why is it needed here?

Also, does anyone have the "stuck on loading symbol" issue despite the updated version?

edit: Flushing the databases solved the issue, but made me loose my config and favorites list... Ugh.

WARNING: this package will install .so files that might interfere with Firefox running under wayland, making it very unstable. See: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1628110 and https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=254633
