With the latest revision (4b6f1629341b), I was having issues with the icon (it appeared as a black Z instead of the new colorful icon). The below patch fixed it for me:

Hi @raffaem, the use of one or the other place is more a matter of opinion. Arch package guidelines only describes very general orientation for this affair. The reality is that all the ways work, all the ways makes sense, and, in the end, there will be always packages in all places. If in the future Arch package guidelines bets for a solution, and it is clearly described, I will change it.

Isn't it better to install this under /opt and not under /usr/lib?

After building and installing, zotero-bin, 6.0.35-2, won't start:

❯ zotero

phcerdan It seems an Nvidia issue. Try to use a former Nvidia driver version or former zotero version. Please, share your outcomes.

Hitting the following:

Such a usefull PKGBUILD, thanks to juanmah for the work maintaining it.

So many votes. And yet still no official Arch package for Zotero.

Why is it so ? Is there anything about Zotero that makes it difficult to build/maintain ? Is it lack of interest by any official Arch packager ?

By the way, Zotero 7 (late 2023)

Zotero 7 represents a major upgrade of the underlying Mozilla Firefox architecture, accompanied by a major rewrite of its source code.

@rosenberg the error seems pretty clear. Have you tried not building the package as root? Have you read the wiki about using the AUR?

juanmah commented on 2023-04-19 20:35 (UTC)

I always test the package if it installed from AUR.

I also run 'makepkg PKGBUILD', and it builds correctly.

Can you try to build another AUR package and confirm if you can build it? Or building through AUR?
