Arch Linux User Repository

I have created a new package: xnviewmp-system-libs. This is exactly the same build, except that the bundled Qt/icu libs are removed. Please try it if you want to use XnView without the bundled libs, and discuss any issue related to this configuration here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xnviewmp-system-libs/. Do keep in mind that this is an experimental package though, and things may break when I try to fix other things...

If makepkg fails because the checksum is incorrect, please flag the package out-of-date and I will update the PKGBUILD.

The PKGBUILD now references the latest versioned archive, as a result of which it should keep working if a new version is released. However, upstream sometimes updates released archives in place, in which case the checksum will fail and a manual intervention is required.

md5sum in case of x64 should be change, more specifically, corresponding lines in PKGBUILD should be: if [ "$CARCH" = 'x86_64' ]; then source=("XnViewMP-linux-x64-${pkgver}.tgz::http://download.xnview.com/XnViewMP-linux-x64.tgz" "xnviewmp.desktop") md5sums=('1e3ffc900abf13795f148156d7796c72' '24f44d5a881b94daf48775213a57e4ec') fi

Please ignore previous about v0.71, I am kind of having on eof those days where my mind is "trying" to go like 5 different directions at once, NOT fun.

@x33a: I have NEVER tinkered with anything to do withe packages..EVER. I leave that up to those who definitely have FAR more experience than I do. I just posted here to let someone know that there was definitely an MD5sum problem with this package. I use the package because I really like it, so woul like it updated. On that, I hope maintainer know it is now up to v0.71, right?

@ CyberWolf2k14, you know that you can always modify your local copy of PKGBUILD, right?

Just tried to install/update XnViewMP to v0.70 in Manjaro via AUR, and it fails the MD5 check. Please correct soonest as I really would like to be able to update. Thanks.

Hi, wrong md5sums for XnViewMP-linux-x64.tgz is the correct 4cf73c452890d3ee479fa036f50658e5

Hi guys, Does anybody have any problems with the thumbnails for video files? XnviewMP will not show thumbnails for any of my mp4 files, even though I have all the required packages mentioned above, plus ffmpegthumbnailer (I have thumbnails for videos working in thunar). Thanks in advance folks

@G-man this is Arch Linux, not Manjaro

Got the update information in my update manager of Manjaro today.
