@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

The Postman team has released an arm64 version. This diff makes it work there

Thanks @raylan, note though that the actual available linux version is 10.10.3 (I've updated to that). Appears 10.10.6 isn't available for linux yet, (e.g. https://dl.pstmn.io/download/version/10.10.6/linux64 gives a 404 as of writing).

j.taala commented on 2022-11-18 22:40 (UTC) (edited on 2022-11-18 22:41 (UTC) by j.taala)

@skremiec, latest available for linux is 10.1.2 (well, that's sync'd cross the CDN nodes anyway).

Let me know when anyone can successfully get a non-404 for:

https://dl.pstmn.io/download/version/10.4.0/linux64

(or versions after 10.1.2).

I just installed the postman cli which I believe was made available in September. The binary for postman and the binary for the cli are both named 'postman', albeit in different directories. The desktop entry for the gui app gets confused when trying to start up. I edited to include the full path to the postman gui binary:

Exec=postman %U

becomes

Exec=/opt/postman/Postman %U

There may be a better way to do this, but it might help to update the desktop entry to avoid conflict in case anyone installs the cli as well.

I needed to manually install https://gitlab.com/vala-panel-project/vala-panel-appmenu/

(there also is an official manjaro package and an aur package)

j.taala commented on 2022-07-26 22:25 (UTC)

Thanks all, I've updated to latest (9.25.2) - and renamed the file downloaded in the PKGBUILD to better align with standard package name that gets downloaded (i.e. from browser) - thanks MagsSwe.

The 404... looks like they removed 9.25.0 and my node was prob last to get synced (yay for Australia!) - hence I wasn't seeing the 404 that other were.

Let me know if anyone still having issues with this new version (9.25.2).

andrea_berling commented on 2022-07-26 20:46 (UTC)

@j.taala I'm experiencing a 404 when downloading as well. I'm trying to install the package from Italy. Using "latest" in place of the "version/${pkgver}" int the download string works for me though

MagsSwe commented on 2022-07-25 13:08 (UTC)

@j.taala You are correct. I had the from/to mixed up in my first comment. Edited now.

MagsSwe commented on 2022-07-25 12:43 (UTC) (edited on 2022-07-25 12:48 (UTC) by MagsSwe)

In order to get this to work, I had to change a line in the the PKGBUILD file from "Postman-linux-x64-${pkgver}.tar.gz::https://dl.pstmn.io/download/version/${pkgver}/linux64" to "postman-${pkgver}-linux-x64.tar.gz::https://dl.pstmn.io/download/version/${pkgver}/linux64"

I'm very new to this and it's probably not the correct solution, but it worked for me. :)
