@swsnr Thanks a lot for the heads up. Actually, I transferred the maintenance of this package to @bordam. So, could you please take care of those @bordam?

Sorry, I only just noticed your question: As far as I understand the guide I think you should explicitly pass -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=None
.
I'd also like to point out that I had to apply the following patch
diff --git i/PKGBUILD w/PKGBUILD

to build the latest update in a clean chroot; I think a dependency on libcanberra may be missing.

Thanks!

@swsnr Done!
xeco commented on 2023-01-05 09:01 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for this @swsnr! @bordam Do you think you can do this by simply omitting the flag entirely for this and the other git package as well?
swsnr commented on 2023-01-01 16:12 (UTC)
This package currently builds with type Release, but the cmake packaging guidelines recommend to build with build type None, see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/CMake_package_guidelines#Fixing_the_automatic_optimization_flag_override
Would you mind to change this?

For anyone who wants to make raw image data pasting work as mentioned here, please use webkit2gtk-imgpaste as the dependency.

This program just locks up all the time. killall -s KILL whatsapp-for-linux is the only thing that closes it. Entering text is about all you can do.

Same problem here with Plasma. Locale is set to en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 and Plasma settings do not change it, but running locale
returned
locale: Cannot set LC_ALL to default locale: No such file or directory
Temporary solution: run export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
.

@lugge
I think there is more to this issue then just broken locale's on your system. On my system I only have en_US.UTF-8 UTF-8 enabled in /etc/locale.gen and my output for locale -a is
C C.UTF-8 en_US.utf8 POSIX
From what I have researched online, the C and C.UTF-8 locales where added into archlinux/manjaro because of systemd and it caused issues because some software cannot handle this properly and it appears that whatsapp-for-linux is one of those issues. I am running Plasma and my region is set to en_US.UTF-8 although everything else is de_DE.UTF-8 (but this shouldn't break anything)
