I downloaded version 9.3.2 (build 2978) and used debtap to create a tar.zst. With pacman -U I then installed that created file.

But I love receiving new versions through the AUR, as I'm not always aware of them available.

I received a response from Vandyke this morning. Indeed, the Tar.gz format is deprecated for SCRT Delivery

Tar.gz files are no longer being posted and are not available as a delivery mechanism for new versions of SecureCRT for Linux.

This was removed on purpose, yes, it is a deprecated delivery method, and it is permanent.

I will try to adjust the PKGBUILD to accommodate for .deb file format this weekend. Please standby.

For those that need a more expeditious intervention, please email/matrix me directly for a workaround.

I can confirm that it appears the same on my end. That's not good -- I have not witnessed this occur before.

I'll reach out to Vandyke support & inquire.

the 'scrt-9.3.1.2929.ubuntu22-64.tar.gz' file is no longer available on 'https://www.vandyke.com/cgi-bin/releases.php?product=securecrt', is this a common occurance? maybe to fix some bugs or something? can I expect it to be available again soon?

No problem, kb8doa, we're here to help.

So Paru is an application that acts as a combined AUR installer, along with a wrapper for Pacman (the main package manager for Arch). It's nice because you can just type paru and it will run both in an equivalent of pacman -Syu.

There is an application called "Yay" which does the same.

But if you are using something more default, like yaourt, then your folder is different.

What command did you use to attempt to install scrt? If you're using yaourt, then it's installed usually under /tmp/

You can be sure by taking the application you build the package with and searching "<aur helper application> build directory".

Or just let me know & I can help you.

How do I know which directory the PKGBUILD will occur in? I don't have a paru subdirectory in my .cache directory...

kazaii commented on 2023-01-06 22:00 (UTC)

@kb8doa , do you have that file in your build directory ?

<h2>To install this package, you need to download the SecureCRT for Linux package in tar.gz format and place it in the same directory as the PKGBUILD</h2>

For me:

$ pwd
/home/kazaii/.cache/paru/clone/scrt
$ ls | grep 2929
scrt-9.3.1.2929.ubuntu22-64.tar.gz
$ 

You can also build from your local directory, with paru, using -Ui

Also, ensure that you have the Ubuntu22 version, not Ubuntu 20

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS 64-bit vs Ubuntu 20.04 LTS 64-bit

Thank you for the quick out-of-date notification! I received the vandyke update email 2 hours later. I also renewed my license today.

Package built without issue on my system and my Manjaro VM. As usual, let me know if you encounter issues.

Please don't discuss cracks / piracy in this comments section. Please keep all comments in relation to the build/install of / usage of SCRT on Arch (or arch based distros).
