Whats the difference from this and visual-studio-code-oss?
(https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/visual-studio-code-oss/)

That's the official file distributed by Microsoft.
dlin commented on 2015-12-14 13:05 (UTC)
Why the source comes from az764295.vo.msecnd.net as binary? Is it the binary file which someone build it?

The Open in Terminal menu item doesn't work in Plasma 5 unless you first run:
sudo ln -s /usr/bin/konsole /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator
I'll report this upstream but just incase anyone wants this to work in the meantime.

@Lexias: Report it upstream at https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues. They're quite responsive there.

X11 crashes for me when I try to select a folder (which is a git repository, if that matters), anyone experiencing the same thing?
xarbit commented on 2015-11-27 12:50 (UTC)

dcelasun commented on 2015-11-27 12:47 (UTC)

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (read before flagging or commenting!)
This is the official binary distribution from Microsoft. The one in the community repo is an unofficial build made from source. Beyond the license difference and branding, there are some proprietary features not available in the open source version.
Please check this page before flagging as out-of-date. If there is no new version on that page, it's not yet released. A tag on Github is NOT a release! If you can see the new version on the updates page but the AUR package is still not updated, flag it and give it time. It's usually done within a day or two.
Sometimes AUR helpers do weird things. Download the tarball and install it manually with
makepkg -si. If that works, report the problem to your AUR helper's upstream, not here.xdg-openuses vscode, not my file manager! How do I fix this?Install shared-mime-info-gnome. Also see this reddit thread.
Just because $X is not required to open the app, doesn't mean there is nothing that depends on it. Always search the comment history on AUR to see if that dependency has been previously discussed before writing your own comment. Still nothing? Then use namcap to make sure it's really not needed. If namcap doesn't complain, please leave a comment here and I'll investigate.
The problem might be a packaging issue (wrong paths, dependencies, icons), so please write a comment here first. If you don't get a reply, or if someone says it's an upstream issue, you can report it on Github.
No, you won't get a reply. Please stop doing this. Leave a comment here instead and be patient.
