WARNING: Lens has closed its source code

Lens has officially become a closed source application so this package will no longer be updated and may soon request to be removed from the AUR.

If you are interested in continuing to use Lens you can use the lens-bin binary package or, better, use an open source alternative such as k9s, kdash, Headlamp or Seabird.

Please kindly submit this for deletion. As it has been broken on Arch Linux since September 2023, when nodejs-lts-gallium got deleted from repo.

(In Feb 2024, an older version of that has been uploaded to AUR, but it is dead on arrival, cannot be compiled. Its maintainer @tallero/@truocolo is known to make more defunct or even spam packages than working ones, often with dubious, suspicious, obfuscated PKGBUILDs that might harm the system).

@pauliunas I can't. Simply because the source code only compiles with nodejs-lts-galium. I don't understand why it has not been moved to the AUR. You can download the PKGBUILD from here and compile it yourself.

In any case it seems to me that we are going to have to look for a replacement for Lens since it seems that they have closed the code.

The nodejs-lts-gallium package is removed, please update this script

@ogarcia thank you! I tried providing kubectl path in settings, but port forwarding still produced ENOENT for /usr/share/${pkgname}/resources/x64/kubectl

@ivanfedotov you can define the location of kubectl in settings, but I just added your suggestion anyway.

@ogarcia could you please add symlink to kubectl in the PKGBUILD (just like it was done with helm). I'm having trouble with the port forwarding otherwise.

  # symlink kubectl binary
  ln -sf /usr/bin/kubectl \
    "${pkgdir}"/usr/share/${pkgname}/resources/x64/kubectl

I didn't realise that it was an issue with the lensapp project instead of this package. I'll blame it on being new to the Arch ecosystem and missing @Bitals' comment. :)

Thanks for your efforts @ogarcia!

@Aganim You should open an issue in the upstream (or better reuse this issue) as this is beyond the scope of the application packaging. Please note that the construction of the package is being done as instructed by the Lens development team.

@ogarcia, building it in a chroot doesn't resolve the issue for me:

I believe I got 6.4.4 to build by passing --concurrency=1 to Lerna (but it's been a while, so memory is a bit cloudy on that), but unfortunately that doesn't seem to fix the build for 6.5.2 anymore.
