Arch Linux User Repository

You apparently need to be a member of the disk group to mount a filesystem as an otherwise unprivileged user.

sudo usermod -aG disk $USER

And log out and back in again.

The following is an English translation:

and at the end of:

@dogmat73 what is your actual error because your out-of-date flag and your comment are not descriptive about the issue you have. This PKGBUILD installs fine on my Arch machine.

Please update the file as it is not installed in the latest version of Manjaro

@Omar007 thank you for the patch! I'll clean this patch (if possible), and include it in the next version.

That whole section with the udisksctl check and the variable to mark support is a bit troublesome. The variable will always be true in the later check, no matter the result of the udisksctl call; both if [ false ] and if [ true ] are always true; they are non-empty strings.

I ended up patching the PKGBUILD as follows:

-    _testLoopDev=${_testLoopDev::-1}
-    udisksctl loop-delete -b "$_testLoopDev" --no-user-interaction

+    fi
     rm test.mount

-    if [ $_unprivilegedMountAllowed ]; then
+    if [ -n "$_unprivilegedMountAllowed" ]; then
       echo "allowed"

It can probably be minimized a bit more and might not catch some other cases (e.g. it doesn't account for non-zero exit codes for udisksctl calls that produce normal output) but I did not want to spend to much time on this atm as the udisks path does not cover my use-case anyway.

Package fails with gdbus permission issues, e.g.

Never seen that before. linux-6.3 issue?

Any idea why we are missing Msmincho.ttc?

Awesome package and automation! Thanks for this!

@KafCoppelia I currently don't have a testing environment. I'll try to reproduce the error you and @wagner encountered once I've a testing environment set up.

Same error occured as wagner.
