Hello everyone, there's always a lot of confusion when ungoogled-chromium doesn't start because of a system dependency it can't find.

This issue is inherent to Arch Linux package management, there's no mechanism that tracks required rebuilds. Maintainers are expected to push manual pkgrel bumps once a rebuild is required. The chromium package can somewhat easily handle this, they can also update the package in testing first.

People's comments here or on GitHub are how I notice that a rebuild is required, I try to push an update quickly then. Sadly a full rebuild currently takes over 24 hours on GitHub Actions and I'm not exactly maintaining open source software as my dayjob either, so this can take a while.

There's no solution for this really, other than adopting the package into the official repository maybe (I cannot do that). Note that for Manjaro users even a rebuild might not be enough as there can always be mismatches in what system library versions are available.

Please note that normally it's not required to flag this package as out of date. I usually tag releases in the main ungoogled-chromium repository and update the arch packaging right afterwards.

If the package hasn't updated after an ungoogled-chromium release GitHub Actions might still be building or the ungoogled-chromium patchset got updated for non Linux platforms only to match their upstream release cycle

the download link is actually https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-archlinux/releases/download/120.0.6099.216-1/ungoogled-chromium-120.0.6099.216-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst, not https://github.com/ungoogled-software/ungoogled-chromium-archlinux/releases/download/120.0.6099.216-2/ungoogled-chromium-120.0.6099.216-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

not the first time this happens :D

The idea of dynamic libraries is that not every binary has to include its own set, saving resources and in theory making bug fixing (security patching)easier because it can be done centrally without touching every binary. Is it possible for an executable to be more relaxed about the library version, i.e. to require just 7.X instead of specifically 7.3? As long as the ABI does not change from 7.3 to 7.4 that should work.

What about making ICU be linked statically?

It seems a rebuild against icu 74 is necessary: /usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.73: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I had the same error and Ungoogled Chrome wouldn't launch: /usr/lib/chromium/chromium: error while loading shared libraries: libdav1d.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

A temporary fix was creating a symlink to the new lib: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libdav1d.so.7 /usr/lib/libdav1d.so.6

lucasgta95 commented on 2023-10-07 15:46 (UTC)

I had to downgrade ungoogled-chromium-bin, ffmpeg, dav1d, libavif, libheif while the rebuild not happens...
