Arch Linux User Repository

Version bumped, no need for /usr/bin/env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/tableplus/lib /usr/local/bin/tableplus anymore.

o/

Version for Ubuntu 21.10 won't work as it depends on libldap 2.5 which was never packaged for Arch (Arch went 2.4->2.6) and glibc 2.34 which is newer than latest Arch.

I made version for Ubuntu 20.04 to work with older libldap and libgio as before but also needed libsasl from Ubuntu package, did not work with Arch libsasl no matter what I tried.

Heads up again

Same story with libldap 2.6, now in testing.

We specifically need libldap_r-2.4.so.2.11.7 and liblber-2.4.so.2.11.7 from libldap-2.4.59-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

Here's a patch which preloads an old version of glib2 (2.68.4) within the tableplus executable itself, applying the fix in a launcher-agnostic manner.

To avoid tab/space issues, use this GitHub gist instead of copy & pasting the patch.

Current workaround:

• Download https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/g/glib2/glib2-2.68.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
• Extract /usr/lib/libgio-2.0.so.0.6800.4 to /opt/tableplus

@wooque / @hps --

This seems like an issue Tableplus will need to address. I was going to suggest their issue tracker (https://github.com/TablePlus/TablePlus-Linux/issues) but I can see you've already opened a report!

glib2 2.70 is no longer in testing and will affect everyone. I don't know where to report, is this TablePlus issue or glib2 issue?

Just a heads up: tableplus segfaults with glib2 2.70.0 from testing. A workaround for now is to extract the old version of glib2 (2.68.4) somewhere and preload libgio-2.0.so

like so env LD_PRELOAD=/home/hps/glib2tmp/libgio-2.0.so.0.6800.4 tableplus

Sorry for even suggesting that, I knew it wasn't true anyway. I assumed he merely made an assumption about the project without looking into it. I hope he doesn't feel put off to the point that he can't even respond here. He does a lot of good work for the AUR.

I never assumed malicious intent-- it's why I took the time to offer explanation!

I genuinely assume that nearly everybody active in the AUR has good intentions behind their actions.
