Hi!

Zotero 8 ships ARM Linux Support, see: https://www.zotero.org/blog/zotero-8/#arm-linux-support

We have been testing this in the zotero-beta-bin (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/zotero-beta-bin) for a while now already and it works great.

Here is the commit from August last year that introduced aarch64 support in zotero-beta-bin: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=zotero-beta-bin&id=2f13b4807337db19dd0b898efa6d0af16bb64b60

Now that Zotero 8 is released, it would be great if zotero-bin could also support those architectures:

To make things easy I set up things in a zotero-bin_aarch64-i686 branch here: https://github.com/mkurz/aur/commits/zotero-bin_aarch64-i686

That branch contains just one commit on top of the zotero-bin branch you maintain - similiar to the commit from the beta AUR: https://github.com/mkurz/aur/commit/418b2c7677d237e3978ad83ae78770ca90cf14ff

You can apply that code now easily in your repo with:

git remote add mkurz git@github.com:mkurz/aur.git
git fetch mkurz zotero-bin_aarch64-i686
git merge mkurz/zotero-bin_aarch64-i686

Afterwards you could release a new version - please do not forget to bump pkgrel.

Would be great if you could do that :) What do you think?

Thank you very much!

PS: Please do not use $CARCH in a source url, because it's impossible to run updpkgsums then. CARCH always refers to the architecture of the host machine, so the hashsum will always be wrong (like running updpkgsums or makepkg -g on an aarch64 machine, CARCH will also use aarch64 for the x86_64 and i686)

@mahlzahn the fakeroot package is a dependency of the base-devel group which the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository) says to install to use the AUR.

Installation complained about missing dependency: it needs fakeroot as build dependency.

Hi, @costor,

If I run:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/zotero ldd /usr/lib/zotero/gmp-clearkey/0.1/libclearkey.so

it shows:

libmozsqlite3.so => /usr/lib/zotero/libmozsqlite3.so (0x00007fab27ba9000)

I'm not sure about it, but it's likely that Zotero already uses RPATH/RUNPATH internally (often pointing to the $ORIGIN directory) to find its libraries.

Then, if you don't have any real issue with zotero, you don't have to worry by the ldd result.

ldd /usr/lib/zotero/gmp-clearkey/0.1/libclearkey.so

shows

libmozsqlite3.so => not found

Thank you, @juanmah! It's working as expected now.

Hi @N1X3L, zotero did something strange with versions today. They have released a new version.

Zotero-7.0.18_linux_x86_64.tar.bz2 fails sha256sums validity check.

Dependency libxt is not needed.
