The latest xpra is infested with bugs, doesn't work properly, and is practically unusable. The maintainer (of xpra, not this package) has the attitude of "Pay me money if you want the bugs you found to be fixed." So, I don't think maintaining this package is worth anyone's effort.

I am transitioning to Wayland and am not actively using xpra for some months, so I decided to disown the package. Would someone who has some experience with packaging would like to own the package?

I modified source to

source=('git+https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra#branch=v6.x')

The master branch is unstable.

I don't have time right now. If someone has a working PKGBUILD, I am happy to review and push it.

Any chance we can get this updated? Xpra version 5.0 was released Aug 19, 2023 and current is 5.0.4.

The non-git version works, but it's 4.x and it's not maintained anymore. Arch is not officially supported either, cf. https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra-html5/issues/271#issuecomment-1782946022

I'll try to tweak it make it work, but if someone else here is able to use it (and not only to compile it), I'd be happy to know! :-)

I guess it's working properly for what you're doing with it :-)

Which is ... nothing. Haven't used it in a long time. Was trying to get it to build for a package repository.

The non-git version seems to work. So something wrong with git version. Could be dependencies, regressions, something else. Maybe someone else will have some ideas.

That's very weird. Anyway, if you have xpra installed, I guess it's working properly for what you're doing with it :-)

On my side, I have another issue. I'm trying to start a remote program, but it failing with a message about GDK 3.0/4.0:

Command:

xpra start ssh://username@host --start-child=firefox

Output:

Is this use case one of yours, and if so, does it work for you?

The server side doesn't start for me.
