Arch Linux User Repository

Good news everyone!

I've set up a github action to build and host this package, and added telegram-desktop-userfonts-bin to the AUR, which fetches that.

@costancho

It's right there in the community repo: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/libtg_owt/

You may want to refresh your mirror list l, with a tool like reflector.

Also, you may want to use the new -bin package, see the pinned message.

Not found the "libtg_owt" dependence.

I haven't built 2.3.0 successfully yet (with either this or the upstream PKGBUILD from community), so let me know if this is good or not on your systems.

My own problems will be updated @ https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1921391#p1921391

@htower Thanks for the notification about the 2.1.8 release.

Looks like Arch's latest package is still at 2.1.7, and I might normally wait for that to update first, but that itself got a second release about a week ago with a patch for newer Qt that has been made unnecessary with 2.1.8, so I'll update the package here as soon as I confirm a good build locally.

If anyone's curious, I've gone back to the hacky method, no patch that breaks with every release to maintain this way. It's working well.

@ilya-fedin

Thanks, made a new working patch based on your branch!

Let me know if you want to maintain this package.

@thabulos font size changing is not possible due to custom font rendering. If font size will be changed, text markup will be broken.

Sorry everyone. I've had a go at updating the patch for the new release, but have not yet been successful.

EDIT: So far I've got mono working, and compilation succeeds. Hopefully will iron the rest out soon.

@thabulos

I'm not sure. I see

    checkFont.setPixelSize(13);

in lib_ui/ui/style/style_core_font.cpp but that is in a "validation" function, so maybe not relevant.

I see with rg -S 'fontsize(: | =)'

SourceFiles/mainwindow.cpp
882:            fontSize = 8;
884:            fontSize = (cntSize < 2) ? 12 : 12;
886:            fontSize = (cntSize < 2) ? 22 : 22;
931:                            fontSize = (cntSize < 2) ? 11 : ((cntSize < 3) ? 11 : 8);
933:                            fontSize = (cntSize < 2) ? 14 : ((cntSize < 3) ? 13 : 10);
935:                            fontSize = (cntSize < 2) ? 17 : ((cntSize < 3) ? 16 : 12);
937:                            fontSize = (cntSize < 2) ? 22 : ((cntSize < 3) ? 20 : 16);

lib_ui/ui/basic.style
31:boxFontSize: 14px;

SourceFiles/ui/empty_userpic.cpp
125:    const auto fontsize = (size * 13) / 33;

codegen/codegen/emoji/generator.cpp
199:constexpr auto kEmojiFontSize = 72;
206:    constexpr auto kLargeEmojiFontSize = 180;

SourceFiles/window/themes/window_theme_preview.cpp
896:            auto fontsize = (st::dialogsPhotoSize * 13) / 33;

So I'd guess we can start messing with this block in SourceFiles/mainwindow.cpp:

    880     int32 fontSize;
    881     if (size == 16) {
    882         fontSize = 8;
    883     } else if (size == 32) {
    884         fontSize = (cntSize < 2) ? 12 : 12;
    885     } else {
    886         fontSize = (cntSize < 2) ? 22 : 22;
    887     }
