It seems like the genius package mantainer placed it under different routes:

[xbz@daily] ~ $ pacman -Ql prismlauncher-qt5-bin | grep -Ei 'applications|desktop|icons' prismlauncher-qt5-bin /opt/prismlauncher/share/applications/ prismlauncher-qt5-bin /opt/prismlauncher/share/applications/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher.desktop prismlauncher-qt5-bin /opt/prismlauncher/share/icons/ prismlauncher-qt5-bin /opt/prismlauncher/share/icons/hicolor/ prismlauncher-qt5-bin /opt/prismlauncher/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/ prismlauncher-qt5-bin /opt/prismlauncher/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/ prismlauncher-qt5-bin /opt/prismlauncher/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher.svg [xbz@daily] ~ $

so after symlinking and refreshing the desktop files cache, kde was able to find the desktop entry, have a great day everyone, use this if you are in kde:

sudo ln -s /opt/prismlauncher/share/applications/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher.desktop \ /usr/share/applications/

sudo ln -s /opt/prismlauncher/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/org.prismlauncher.PrismLauncher.svg \ /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/

Please use the official prismlauncher package. This package will be deprecated soon.

is it me or there is no icon nor desktop file for this pkgbuild? package is not found when searching with kde plasma search app but runs fine via terminal commands, which is nasty packaging

xAsh commented on 2025-05-08 20:12 (UTC)

Could we have an icon+desktop file for this PKGBUILD?

@BeronTheColossus This package does not depend on python and does not need a rebuild. Either way, it is up to the user to rebuild their AUR packages when required. pkgrel bumps for rebuilds only happen in the official repos.

@txtsd Thank you for your quick reply. I am sorry, I didn't realise that there is an extra package now, haven't used it in quite a while.

The extra package works like a charm, thanks again

@gamersi Quirks of having to rely on the portable build. You could copy your settings and instances into /opt/prismlauncher/. Or make a symlink.

Please use extra/prismlauncher instead of this package.

gamersi commented on 2024-11-10 10:43 (UTC)

Hello! All my settings and instances are gone since the last update. Also the launcher no longer has a window bar for some reason. The desktop entry is also gone How can I fix this?

txtsd commented on 2024-11-08 18:43 (UTC)

@akya Thanks for reporting! I pushed a fix.

Remember, the upstream release asset that this package relied on does not exist anymore. We've switched to using the portable version for a few months until Qt5 reaches EOL. You might see oddities.

akya commented on 2024-11-08 17:33 (UTC)

@txtsd, I am getting this `The launcher couldn't create a log file - the data folder is not writable.

Make sure you have write permissions to the data folder. (/opt/prismlauncher)

The launcher cannot continue until you fix this problem.`
