I've adopted the package and updated to the latest version. Sadly this means that GTK2 support is dropped (SWT dropped support back in 2018...). I'm not sure if anyone was using this on Arch Linux ARM, but temporarily support for that is also dropped. They did some work on that upstream though but it is not part of 1.6.2 yet, so hopefully it can be supported after the next release. It should now support ARM64 (please let me know if it works for you).

Let me know if you run into any issues.

@Trofik Try running archlinux-java set java-25-openjdk, to build it with Java 25.

Hi Visne, updating my PC this morning I've got this error with Tuxguitar:

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] BUILD FAILURE [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Total time: 3.247 s [INFO] Finished at: 2026-01-12T10:58:15+01:00 [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.10.1:compile (default-compile) on project gervill: Fatal error compiling: invalidtarget release: 9 -> [Help 1] org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.10.1:compile (default-compile) onproject gervill: Fatal error compiling

Don't know how to solve it unfortunately. :-(

@Visne: Oh, forgot to mention: Upstream updated the Eclipse SWT version to 4.36 as well.

@Visne: I'm following upstream instructions and they work. Imagine that... ;)

Please do a diff between your PKGBUILD and mine. You'll at least notice the license is incorrect and the MAVEN_OPTS variable is unnecessary. ;)

Visne commented on 2025-11-29 23:15 (UTC)

@yochananmarqos I've updated the package and I've integrated the sed command to fix the version number in the help documentation. The other changes don't seem like improvements to me.

yochananmarqos commented on 2025-11-29 21:04 (UTC)

@Visne: Please see my updated and improved PKGBUILD.

Visne commented on 2025-06-02 20:48 (UTC)

You probably don't have a JDK installed that can compile Java 9. I updated the PKGBUILD to specify the requirement, so now you should be prompted to install an appropriate JDK.

Getting build errors from the gervill target:

Caused by: org.codehaus.plexus.compiler.CompilerException: invalid target release: 9

@Toufik That's great, enjoy.

@actionless You're right, that makes more sense. Updated now.
