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

I've never experienced such issue. There might be a problem with your locale configurations but I am really not sure. Mine is like this:

$ locale -a
C
de_DE.utf8
en_US.utf8
POSIX

Only runs for me like

LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 whatsapp-for-linux

and throws

Settings: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'Glib::ConvertError'

if started w/o LC_ALL=en_US.utf8 Is this by design?

Well, there is no way of doing that right now but it's one of our future plans. See https://github.com/eneshecan/whatsapp-for-linux/issues/9 please.

Works perfekt. Thanks a Lot.

Thanks a lot for this. I just made it static as you proposed.

xeco commented on 2020-09-09 23:11 (UTC)

Or, are non static (git) packages have more advantage over static ones? What is the preferred way being followed by the community?

Hi, thank you for the feedback. Since I am new to aur packaging, I don't know how to do that properly but I will try to make this a static release since I want to keep the pkgname as before.
