Please do not flag this package as outdated unless there is a newer release from upstream.

If there are dependency issues, please leave a comment here. Sometimes they are mitigable. However, if that is not the case, it is preferable to keep the flagging feature available so maintainers are notified to adopt a newer build more quickly.

If you have a file system error with version 0.22.0. I have already filed a bug report and the problem has been solved. https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/issues/2212. I am not sure if they will simply replace the current build or make a new release though.

Package updated, boost-libs dependency should be fine at least for now.

@Calivi Please reference the pinned comment and use other AUR packages until upstream provides a new release.

Latest version does not run, saying "error while loading shared libraries: libboost_locale.so.1.81.0"

@peppernose145 This bin package only traces the upstream binary release, and it's up-to-date with the current upstream build, so technically it's not outdated. The issue right now is dynamic linked library dependencies broke, but the upstream is not going to release a rebuild. This could not be addressed by this bin PKGBUILD. I'll just leave a comment here to tell people that who would like to use this software should use other AUR packages (e.g. sunshine) that build from source code and updated dependencies. I'll continually follow the upstream and update this package if there is an update. Unflagging now.

@escape0707 thank you so much, added you as co-maintainer. To be honest, I don't use this package much, I just think this is a missing software on AUR, so I create this.

@chungn Oh, of course! I'd like to become a co-maintainer. I'll be using this software for the foreseeable future. And I think no other apps can do Wayland remote desktop reasonably.

@escape0707 Updated package as your patch, didn't test the new package though.

Please let me know if you're interest in becoming a co-maintainer :D

Please consider this patch attached below. Especially, the udev rule is installed at a wrong path, and you can't use this package anyway, so I decided to mark the package as outdated and update needed to not waste other newcomers' time. I've made some other improvements, too.

Anyone getting

Error: Could not create Sunshine Mouse: Permission denied
Error: Could not create Sunshine Touchscreen: Permission denied
Error: Could not create Sunshine Keyboard: Permission denied
Error: Unable to create some input devices! Are you a member of the 'input' group?
Info: Falling back to XTest

even after adding yourself into the group? Do I have to do some changes to the user service unit file?

I'm using Gnome Wayland, but I guess it's not relevant here?

Edit: solved by fix the PKGBUILD, see later post.
