Arch Linux User Repository

please fix typo in install file:

s/chimera/ucsf-chimera/g

pkgver=1.10.1
pkgrel=1
url='https://rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/'

There is a little mistake in .install file:
post_install() {
/opt/chimera/bin/xdg-setup install # ucsf-chimera instead of chimera
}

@confusedfla: Nice approach. But it misses i686 arch support. This might work:
if [ "$CARCH" = 'x86_64' ]; then
_name="chimera-${pkgver}-linux_x84_64.bin"
_file="linux_x84_64%2F${_name}&choice=Accept"
elif [ "$CARCH" = 'i686' ]; then
_name="chimera-${pkgver}-linux.bin"
_file="linux%2F${_name}&choice=Accept"
fi

Also IHMO it would be better to replace wget with curl because it's not present in Arch's base packages group: curl $_url -o $_name

Regards.

That is sad to hear.

Btw I fixed the extracting of the SFX archives.
Somehow the "-d" flag doesnt work anymore, however piping the directory on stdin works fine :)

So this PKGBUILD should create a working package.

So I've contacted upstream and I was told I'd get a message from the developer responsible for the website, however that has not happened. I'll see about implementing something similar to @confusedfla's approach today.

I would like to share my approach with you.

It's a workaround that enables you to download the file.
I just tested it again - it still works fine for the download, but it seems like they changed the installer/extractor a bit.

@neersighted: hope this helps you a bit ;-)

So, UCSF recently added a 'real' token to their download page and now you can't automate the download. I have a contact there, and I'll see what I can do. Until then, you have to download the '.bin' file manually and place it in the same directory as the PKGBUILD. Sorry about that.

The PKGBUILD should be updated with the current url, that's why the installation process fails

This doesn't seem to work anymore. The link to the website is also broken.

@Runiq

Fixed. Thanks for helping out!
