Arch Linux User Repository

Although salad 1.0.8 (and maybe newer by the time you're reading this) is out, the source code is only available up to 0.5.8 for now. Please do not flag this as out-of-date until the source code for newer versions is released. Note that a version 1.0.0 package was erroneously released before since I did not realize that the source code itself hadn't been updated (which is why this is on epoch 1 now).

If/when salad releases the source code for >=1.0.0, I'll try to update this package, but chances are that it will not work since Salad has stopped supporting Linux. If it does not work then, I will probably disown this package so that, if they change their minds on Linux support (which I really hope they do considering our increasing marketshare), someone can resuscitate this package.

Hardware detection is currently broken in the latest release (0.5.8), sadly salad-git package doesn't exist so I will do my part

glibc deprecated libcrypt.so.1 so install it:

# pacman -S libxcrypt-compat

You have two options

• Modify in PKGBUILD

$ cd ~/.cache/yay/salad/

Open PKGBUILD and change these two lines:

source=("salad-applications-${pkgver}::git+https://github.com/SaladTechnologies/salad-applications.git")
sha256sums=('SKIP')

Remove old pkg then build with the new PKGBUILD without .git

$ rm -rf salad* .git

$ makepkg -si

• Or build from source (Create /usr/bin/salad yourself):

$ git clone https://github.com/SaladTechnologies/salad-applications

$ cd salad-applications/packages/desktop-app

$ yarn install && yarn start

@TechVio I have been unable to reproduce this issue in any way. If you figure out a way to reproduce it using a VM or (preferably) Docker please let me know so I can try to figure out the issue you're facing. Currently, the only thing I can think of being the issue is something with your yarn cache, so maybe you could try clearing it.

@MithicSpirit Stills the same

@TechVio I'm not at my computer so I can't test right now but can you check whether this issue persist when using makepkg instead of yay?

@MithicSpirit I always get this error when installing the app:

 -> error making: salad

Oh wow sorry for not updating this package but I thought they had stopped supporting Linux, but it seems like 0.5.8 supports it again (see the release) so I'll push the update here today or tomorrow.

EDIT: thx @Vukky for bringing that to my attention with the out-of-date flag :)

@Vukky oh yeah just searched for "linux" on their discord and they aren't going to support it anymore :/

from what i remember, the main one is that there's new things coming that won't work on linux

+ not having to support that many other OSes will mean they can focus on windows, and other features for it, without having to worry if it'll work for the other oses

@soshimee can you try reverting to 0.5.6 and seeing if that fixes your issue? Should just be changing to pkgver=0.5.6 on line 4 and running updpkgsums (or setting md5sums=('SKIP') on line 15).

CPU won't work either for me.

@soshimee yeah GPU detection doesn't really work well so if you find out how to enable it I can try adding that. Currently this only really works for CPU mining and checking your balance.

@Vukky Huh, I hope this is just a one-time thing and it doesn't persist for future versions.
