@sashank Thanks for the update! Through your suggestion though, I conducted a series of benchmarks to see which might be quicker and turned out --xz flag was actually the fastest---so I might keep it as XZ for now and see if any other grievances appear.

@ponte-vecchio So I totally made a mistake. I'd installed miniforge (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/miniforge) as a python environment and package manager which once you initialize it it modifies your rc/profile to activate the base environment by default upon loading up your shell environment. I had thought this base environment was just jargon for the non-conda base arch environment, but I just realized that it actually just an environment located in /opt/miniforge. And lo and behold, one of the environment specific binaries it manages is zstd. So, I was totally wrong. I wasn't using the zstd managed by Arch Linux repositories and pacman, but instead the one managed by miniforge, and I guess they compiled without xz/lzma support.

Updated to use the -xJf flags accordingly :) @sashank

I'm getting the following error using the --zstd flag with tar. Using -xJf instead of --zstd -xf completes the extraction for me and allows me to install the program.

Otherwise, I get the following error:

zstd: /*stdin*\: xz/lzma file cannot be uncompressed (zstd compiled without HAVE_LZMA) -- ignored

And I believe I have the standard version of zstd installed.

Name : zstd Version : 1.5.7-2 Description : Zstandard - Fast real-time compression algorithm Architecture : x86_64 URL : https://facebook.github.io/zstd/ Licenses : BSD-3-Clause GPL-2.0-only Groups : None Provides : libzstd.so=1-64 Depends On : glibc gcc-libs zlib xz lz4 Optional Deps : None Optional For : None Conflicts With : None Replaces : None Installed Size : 1564.62 KiB Packager : Tobias Powalowski tpowa@archlinux.org Build Date : Thu 20 Feb 2025 10:50:04 AM CST Install Date : Sun 09 Mar 2025 01:40:58 AM CST Install Reason : Installed as a dependency for another package Install Script : No Validated By : Signature

So since it's an xz file, maybe using the -xJf flag might lead to the widest compatability of the PKGBUILD script.

Cheers @mjandrews, fix is on the way! See: https://github.com/posit-dev/positron/issues/5927

(The fixes have been merged and now live as of 2025.02.X.XX.)

I used this package for months without issue but since the most recent version, i.e. 2025.01.0.152-1, it crashes whenever I click on the File menu. Given that I use that menu for many basic things like opening new folders etc, the program has now become mostly unusable and so I can't really check what if anything else is not working. My desktop environment is KDE plasma, but I switched to Gnome to see if the problem occurred there too, which it did. Has anyone else encountered any problems with the most recent version,2025.01.0.152 (b2accbe)? I have used the Git repo https://aur.archlinux.org/positron-ide-devel-bin.git and gone back to d4e736e, from 30 Dec 2024. This is the most recent commit prior to 2025.01.0.152 (b2accbe). This seems to be working without problems. In particular, the File menu works again.

Turns out licence is not accepted ._. so I americanised it to license. Cheers.

Hi! Please fix typo in license) You can refer it as Elastic-2.0

For anyone who is encountering the conflicting files issues that cjgb reported below. you can pass in the --overwrite '*' flag to overwrite the debug files.

e.g., yay -Syu positron-ide-devel-bin --overwrite '*'

Thanks for making this. I was trying to make one the other day and just didn't know my way around making a PKGBUILD file from scratch.

now you should add the rstudio ide as a conflict :p
