@leledumbo's fix for the pkgbuild works for stopping the update notification, however the new version of Superbeam 5.0.3-2 simply does not work. Nothing launches. I ended up just removing this package and downloading the Linux pkg direct from Superbeam's website, which is version 1.2 and creating my own launcher which is working fine. Superbeam's website downloads the 1.2 version for Linux, not the 5.0.3 version. I'm assuming the 5.0.3 version is for Windows only. I think this AUR package needs to revert back to 1.2 or needs some modifications, as this current build simply doesn't work for me. Has anyone else gotten the 5.0.3 version to work?

It's due to pkgrel in PKGBUILD is still 1, change it to 2 and you're all set (certainly this is package maintainer's job, but in case you don't want to wait).

Latest build is having some issues. It doesn't register that it's been updated, so Pamac keeps thinking there is an update. It also doesn't launch after upgrading. Clicking the app does nothing. I've built it through Pamac and Yay, both are yielding the same results.

I've disowned the package feel free to step up and update it

If any of you wants the latest version, edit PKGBUILD to the following contents: # Maintainer: Jo De Boeck <deboeck.jo@gmail.com> # Original Maintainer: Julien Humbert <julroy67@gmail.com> # Contributor: danyf90 # Contributor: hermes14 pkgname=superbeam pkgver=5.0.3 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="The easiest and fastest way to share files with Android" arch=('any') url="http://superbe.am/" license=('custom') depends=('java-environment' 'bash') makedepends=('gendesk') source=("http://superbe.am/download/5294") md5sums=("SKIP") prepare(){ gendesk -n -f --pkgname "$pkgname" --pkgdesc "$pkgdesc" --name="SuperBeam" --categories="Network" } package() { mkdir -p "$pkgdir/usr/bin" install -Dm755 "$srcdir/SuperBeam-5.0.3-linux.sh" "$pkgdir/usr/bin/superbeam" install -Dm644 "$srcdir/$pkgname.desktop" "$pkgdir/usr/share/applications/$pkgname.desktop" install -Dm644 "$srcdir/SuperBeam.png" "$pkgdir/usr/share/pixmaps/$pkgname.png" install -Dm644 "$srcdir/README" "$pkgdir/usr/share/doc/$pkgname/README" } I'll take over maintenance of this package if the original author abandon it. EDIT: The installed binary doesn't seem to work, though. Even the directly extracted one. I've contacted SuperBeam about this, let's wait for their answer.

Oh, there is a new version 5.0.3. http://superbe.am/ver-5/

I keep getting an update notification whenever I launch Superbeam. I re-installed the AUR package and it seems to have stopped. Strange.

donvla commented on 2017-02-25 11:33 (UTC)

The latest version is still 1.2.0.

annoyingduck commented on 2017-02-24 19:16 (UTC)

There has been a new release available for a while, can we get this package updated for the current release?

Remove duplicate download of file. Use internal script of superbeam which detects java from JAVAHOME. Also allows to pass files from the cli interface.
