@kb8doa your config should be user local. Can you check if you have the folder ~/.vandyke/SecureCRT/Config? If yes and you find your sessions there, it should be save to remove scrt.

I recently upgraded my license from SecureCRT to the SecureCRT/FX Bundle. If I try to apply this AUR, I get errors: ==> Finished making: scrt-sfx-opt-bin 9.4.1-3102 (Fri 04 Aug 2023 10:27:10 AM EDT) ==> Cleaning up...

Checking keyring... Checking integrity... Loading packages files... Checking file conflicts... Failed to commit transaction: conflicting files: - scrt-sfx-opt-bin: /usr/share/applications/SecureCRT.desktop already exists in filesystem (owned by scrt) - scrt-sfx-opt-bin: /usr/share/vandyke/data/securecrt_64.png already exists in filesystem (owned by scrt)

Is there a safe way to apply this, without losing all my Session Manager sessions? I am afraid that if I uninstall SecureCRT this would happen.

@matthiash you would need to modify the PKGBUILD. Change the pkgname if the sfx in there bothers you, change the _bundle_name, change sha512sums of your downloaded deb package. And then comment out/remove all paths mentioning SecureFX. Then I'm not sure if lib/scrt-sfx/plugins/platforms would exist or the rest is laid out the same. At that point you would have your own package :).

You are probably better off taking the scrt package, downloading the PKGBUILD and change the version in there plus the hash. Then it might already work.

Is it possible to use the version if you only have a license for SecureCRT? 'scrt' is as of this writing out of date, so I tried this package instead. But the installer wouldn't accept as it didn't include SecureFX.

@kistlin , thanks for your OOD reports on plain scrt repo!

Yep, just needed to tweak things for the updated package as @jtbwatson suggested, thanks all!

@myceliiia yeah they must have updated the package.

But I now pushed the changes for the new version (thanks for reporting @jtbwatson I assume :)). You might as well take that.

scrt-sfx-9.2.0.2755.ubuntu20-64.tar.gz.

@myceliiia

you need to make sure you are installing the correct version. as of today, 9.2.0 is out. i just installed this with this package by altering the PKGBUILD to contain the correct version, subversion, correct SHA512 hash, and renamed the .install script to the right version as well.

run sha512sum scrt-sfx-9.2.0.2755.ubuntu20-64.tar.gz and replace the first line of the hash in the PKGBUILD with this

it just takes some tweaking.

Encountering an issue, any assistance would be appreciated.

I've recently moved to using the scrt+fx bundle as opposed to the standalone scrt.

I downloaded the package from the official source and place it in the required directory, but during the build process I get the following:

==> Making package: scrt-sfx-opt-bin 9.1.1-2638 (Tue 26 Apr 2022 21:35:50 BST)
==> Checking runtime dependencies...
==> Checking buildtime dependencies...

    scrt-sfx-opt-bin-9.1.1-2638.install ... Passed
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!
 -> error making: scrt-sfx-opt-bin

Any reason why it would be failing the validity check? Thanks.

Update: I compared the 512 hash I get versus what's in the .SRCINFO (I assume the package hash should match the first 512sums line in that file if respective to the source), and they are indeed different. I guess the package has been updated in the official source (or in the case of scrt-sfx-opt-bin, there's a different source I'm unaware of.)
