@ianmethyst: The files ARE identical, check with diff if you don't believe me.

But sorry, I was being a bit unclear. 'processing' and 'processing-java' in /usr/bin are symlinks to /usr/share/processing/processing and /usr/share/processing/processing-java, respectively. But because the 'processing'-script detects how it is called, it works equally well if /usr/bin/processing-java is a symlink to /usr/share/processing/processing instead of processing-java. I did that change to my system, works fine(TM). So having two separate files is completely unnecessary. Also, because I need to edit _JAVA_OPTIONS anyway to make the fonts readable, now I need to edit two files instead of just one.

@cyberpunkrocker processing-java and processing are not the same. The former is the CLI while processing is the regular IDE

@lesto: You could set the 'reference.zip' checksum to 'SKIP'. Not a good practice, but then you don't need to update the PKGBUID every time upstream changes someting in the reference :)

  • Wrong dependency: there's no such package as 'apache-ant' anymore. Use 'ant'
  • 'reference.zip' checksum fails (again)
  • The install script installs two completely identical files, /usr/bin/processing and /usr/bin/processing-java, the only difference between these two being the filename. I suppose processing-java could/should be removed.

updated to latest sha256. Still looking for a better way to manage the JVM, if anyone has a suggestion let me know

sha256 for reference.zip fails as it is different that the one in the PKGBUILD. One way is the download and get the sha256 manually and edit the PKGBuild base on that.

Thanks for reporting, @uradamus :) I've updated the checksums in this package as well as in the other processing-packages I maintain (processing4-git and processing-jdk8).

This is failing to validate the reference.zip package. Guessing it got updated on the website some time after this was last updated, causing the checksum to not match what is in the pkgbuild anymore. Looks like the git version of this is using the same checksum value, so probably both need to be updated.

Yup, manually downloaded that archive and got it's new checksum, and it doesn't match what's in the pkgbuild, after replacing it, I was able to build successfully.

It works now, with YAY choosing 'jdk8-openjdk' from "extra" repository* * just activate it in your /etc/pacman/pacman.conf
