I'm not really using this package anymore, as I migrated to use https://gitlab.com/aar642/shadow-repackaged directly, but I don't want to change the upstream AppImage to shadow-repackaged as this may disrupt other users of this repo. I will continue to update the PKGBUILD until someone else wants to take over.

Finally got my issue resolved. None of the packages that got pinned after I unsubscribed helped. (although they motivated me to resubscribed and try again) I reached out to shadow support and said that they officially support Ubuntu but I couldn't get that working in a VM. (which was true) The person who responded directed me to a repo that helped a lot. https://gitlab.com/aar642/shadow-repackaged

In my case my issue was you can't run plex and shadow at the same time and once I stopped the plex service it worked like a charm. (Note: the Stable version over there didn't work for me but the Beta and Alpha work fine as well the package in this repo. @tionis I highly recommend pinning the link to that gitlab as it has a bunch of possible issues listed with workarounds for a lot of the popular branches. (Arch among others)

Some notes:

Some dependencies may be required and were reported by other users. They are not in PKGBUILD because I personally haven't had any issue running Shadow without these packages. I need more users' reports to confirm they are really required before putting them into PKGBUILD. So please try the following dependencies if you encounter errors, and please report here if these dependencies do resolve your errors.

  1. libldap24 from AUR
  2. net-tools
  3. xdg-utils
  4. flatpak

@pychuang

Yes I used yay for everything. I deleted the folder in the yay directory and told yay to do a clean build now I get this error in waterfox instead of a blank white screen like before XML Parsing Error: no root element found Location: http://localhost:32600/openidconnect/callback?code=iQFJFY5aNSZo-tgNXPnDAm9wneD40XOVuLVnWGHA01K Line Number 1, Column 1: and trying again via chrome still gives me this error. No webpage was found for the web address: http://localhost:32600/openidconnect/callback?code=KKO3BshDVY9oxOWbh0FLUlnjmW4SkNrPX93HKKSqTXx

I did research on the Open connect id error that I get in chrome and found an aur package for that here https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/oidc-agent/ unfortunately aside from being outdated it fails to install. However I noticed that I can install directly from source because of the github it's referencing. Should I try to do that? I don't know if the maintainer of that repo wrote the pkgscript as a git repo but just didn't put that in the title. I left them a comment asking if they are.

@LinuxLoverForeve

  1. Regarding the checksum issue, how did you build/install shadow-tech? Did you use yay? If so, try removing the cached source directory (usually ~/.cache/yay/shadow-tech) and see if you still get the checksum error.

  2. As for the clean build and redirection error, I couldn't reproduce it. Did you use yay's clean build? Or did you build it in a clean chroot (as described here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot)?

@pychuang I had an issue with the checksum matching so I did a clean build but now I'm having the issue that I had with one of the other repos on the aur. When I go to login the browser redirects to a localhost error. No webpage was found for the web address: http://localhost:32600/openidconnect/callback?code=GV8O0TscQXuUiwf3jAraW09NlPtF_2ge8D_lpC65Gfv HTTP ERROR 404

My default browser is waterfox g3 but I even tried with chrome which is what gave me the actual error.

@pychuang you're right, oddly I had a really old version of yq installed. I just reinstalled and now it works, thanks.

pychuang commented on 2021-09-13 18:16 (UTC)

@fabiofalci I couldn't reproduce the error. Not sure if this is relevant, but what shell are you using?

Also, can you try the following test and see if it gives any error?

$ curl -L https://storage.googleapis.com/shadow-update/launcher/prod/linux/ubuntu_18.04/latest-linux.yml -o shadow-tech-meta.yml
$ echo "$(yq -r .sha512 shadow-tech-meta.yml)"

(You may need to install yq first if it's not available on your machine.)

@bigjimlefou Thanks! I got it. I added xxd to makedepends.

bigjimlefou commented on 2021-08-10 16:24 (UTC)

@pychuang xxd is included with vim or gvim. But xxd-standalone should also work. By default on Manjaro, of you type xxd without having it, installing vim or gvim will be proposed.

pychuang commented on 2021-08-10 14:31 (UTC)

@bigjimlefou I'm not sure I understand. Why is vim/gvim needed by shadow-tech? Thanks!

bigjimlefou commented on 2021-08-10 08:40 (UTC)

@pychuang thanks for this package. There is just a missing dependency for xxd(vim or gvim)
