@dreieck I have updated the package to not bundle ffmpeg anymore following this upstream issue. Vdhcoapp can only use the local ffmpeg because its path is hardcoded. The package uses symlinks for now and I am waiting for Vdhcoapp to properly support using the system's ffmpeg.

I also added the provides and conflicts variables.

Thanks for your suggestions

I've tested the test PKGBUILD from xiota and also the latest release of vdhcoapp-bin from today and both work for me. Thanks a lot! :)

@Paragoumba The !debug option was intentionally added to test whether it has any effect on the errors / file modifications that many users have reported.

@xiota I have updated the package following your test PKGBUILD. I have seen you added !debug to the options, as it works for me without it, I removed it. Is it really necessary? Or is it a test to resolve the "Error reading from file" error? Everything seems to work, don't hesitate to test and report any problem

@beeender, @dncrash and @clearmartin I have not been able to reproduce your error on ext4. Is it still happening, even with this new version?

@clearmartin Here's an alternate PKGBUILD to test.

I'm having the same problems on ext4.

@dncrash Would you mind building the package on a drive with a different file system, either ext4 or xfs?

I wouldn't mind but I only have btrfs.

I'm having the same issue as @beeender:

Pkg: Error reading from file

Like he said, I did an md5sum on the file in /opt and the file from the src, and they were different, so I just copied over the original file and it works.

I should mention that I first tried installing with paru, and then manually, but the issue is still the same.

@xiota you were asking about filesystems, I am using btrfs - not sure how it would interfere but I guess it's worth mentioning.
