@ntfc I was going to go the other way (update to 9.0.1 instead of reverting back to 8.11.1).

P.S. postman are pretty bad at updating their release notes page (even after a new version is out).

If you want to revert to any previous version you can do so by cloning the aur repo and changing the version in the PKGBUILD file and using makepkg to build it (it will download and install that version for you). E.g.:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/postman-bin.git
cd postman-bin

Edit the PKGBUILD file with whatever editor you like: edit line 4 to be pkgver=8.11.1 or whatever version you like, then save and exit out of the editor and run

updpkgsums
makepkg -sif

updpkgsums will download the file and update sha for file in PKGBUILD so it will install with makepkg

Have now updated to to 7.36.0, which apparently resolves the issue in the original 7.35.0 update. Thanks to @hertog and @fagianijunior for the heads up.

Links using the "postman" protocol don't work with the provided desktop file. I was able to get it working by adding the following line: MimeType=x-scheme-handler/postman

Any chance we could get the package updated with this @claudiodangelis?

After the latest update I am having an issue with the Postman GUI. When I click into another window (after postman is running and I send a request), the entire Postman window goes black (except for the header with the minimize/maximize/close buttons). Any ideas on this would be much appreciated as I use Postman daily for development testing. For the time being, I have resigned myself to several terminal windows running curl commands...

Thank you

@claudiodangelis, you can execute some commands on a predefined phases (one of which is pre_upgrade). have a look at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD. look for the "install" variable

Hi gitterrost4, I don't think this is possible to do in PKGBUILD though. PKGBUILD contains information used by makepkg to build and install the package into a fakeroot environment, which is subsequently compressed into a package file and eventually installed into the system by pacman.

I need to do more research on this, many thanks for pointing it out.

According to this thread, upgrading should involve clearing the installation directory first. Otherwise it leads to unexpected behavior. Is that possible to do in the PKGBUILD?

Hi @bashM0nk3y, you are passing the wrong argument, the correct command is:

sudo pacman -U postman-bin-6.1.3-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

For completeness, the argument you're using, Postman-linux-x64-6.1.3.tar.gz, is not the package built for the installation but the source package as it is relased by Postman.

[user@host:postman-bin]$ sudo pacman -U Postman-linux-x64-6.1.3.tar.gz
[sudo] password for user:
loading packages...
error: missing package metadata in Postman-linux-x64-6.1.3.tar.gz

EDIT: Sorry guys, it might help if I try to install the actual pkg huh? lol Thanks claudiodangelis!
