Hey! After the latest Manjaro Gnome update, I'm receiving this error when try to run "streamdeck":

Traceback (most recent call last):

@foxite I intend to however I have a ticket opened upstream for a problem with 2.0.3 and once I clear that hurdle the next commit I push will include the .desktop file as well.

Why not just add the .desktop file to the package?

Update: I now see that a new version, 2.0.3, has been released. I'm working on testing the PKGBUILD for compatibility so I've marked the package out of date myself which I'll fix the flag once I've verified the work.

I use this package extensively for work purposes so I'm motivated to see this package maintained. I wasn't expecting it to go orphaned so I grabbed it up quick to keep it alive. I'll review the PKGBUILD code and see what upstream's been up to and I'll get things updated accordingly. Thanks to GI_Jack for their work up to date!

@dhtseany Nice write up. My only issue is the potential security risk of $ sudo usermod -aG input <username> I worry because on a user account that is likely to use streamdeck this might cause some issues.

I've not experienced the issue you have with scripts not writing to the home directory, it sounds like an access control issue. Have you checked the terminal running streamdeck or syslog after making the attempt?

That Archwiki page sounds like it would be cool. You should do it.

Anyone else having a problem with the streamdeck not being able to write the output of sh scripts to the home directory? If I run the same script from the terminal it'll write to the file as expected but if the same script is run by the stream deck it gets a permission denied error.

If you have problems please leave a comment and I'll do my best to assist.

I plan on making a proper Archwiki page for Stream Decks in general for but for right now use the following instructions to install this thing:

1. Install streamdesk-ui from AUR

2. Add yourself to the input group:

$ sudo usermod -aG input <username>

3. Reload the udev rules:

sudo udevadm control --reload-rules

4. Test if it runs:

$ streamdeck

5. To allow the app to launch in Gnome without the terminal:

$ sudo nano /usr/share/applications/streamdeck-ui.desktop

Then copy/paste the following:

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.1.2-2
Name=Stream Deck UI
GenericName=Stream Deck UI
Comment=Application used to configure Elgato Stream Deck products
Terminal=false
Type=Application
Exec=python /usr/bin/streamdeck
MimeType=application/x-executable;
Categories=Network;

...then reboot (I think) to get the .desktop recognized, all should work after that.

If I find anything else missing I'll edit this comment with the update otherwise I'll circle back here with the link to the relevant Archwiki page once it's published.

If you got the problem dephell: command not found just run sudo pacman -S python-dephell

Just a note, for the Streamdeck MK.2 the following rule should be added:

SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0fd9", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0080", GROUP="users", MODE="0666"
