Arch Linux User Repository

Hi, I've updated the package. Since I don't actively use LMS anymore, I'm not aware of such breaking updates, so thanks for the heads up and the patch! Feel free to contact me if you'd like to adopt the package, the reason I don't orphan it is because I'm afraid it will die if I do...

btw I'm interested in co-maintaining/maintaining, I have quite a backlog now but I'll return to use LMS in some time

Hi, I just saw here https://lyrion.org/lms-server-repository/ that there is a version 8.5 of logitechmediaserver, but also an upcoming version 9.0 that will be rebranded to lyrionmediaserver. What will this mean for the AUR package? Can we simply carry on with the existing package, or will there be a new package and we will have to migrate to it? Probably reinstalling would not be a big deal, but I have not looked into how the server stores its configuration, which I would of course like to keep.

Hi everyone, I've pushed the update to 8.4.0 which should also solve the verification errors. Happy building!

Edited the existing PKGBUILD to the new 8.4.0 release and the appropriate sha256sum for the archive.

Built fine.

I'm also getting the following installation error when installing with yay: "ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!".

slimserver-vendor-public-8.4.tar.gz fails the check.

Sorry I don't know how to resolve in the way @squawk describes.

*EDIT*

I believe that I worked out how to change the checksums, however the installation fails at the next step:

*EDIT 2*

Got past this by first installing openssl-1.1 .

However all ends badly with:

If I run zstd in a terminal, I get the same error. I use pacman to reinstall zstd, it again tries to reinstall version 1.5.5

*EDIT 3*

This last error was a PATH problem on my sytem. In the process of figuring that out, I installed the AUR logitechmediaserver-git package.

New user here. Also had Perl-related issues while installing on manjaro. I'd like to add my solution for future reference.

install github-cli
gh repo clone Logitech/slimserver-vendor
sudo ln -s /usr/include/locale.h /usr/include/xlocale.h
change to appropriate folder, in my case ~/slimserver-vendor/CPAN and run ./buildme.sh
create directories needed: /opt/logitechmediaserver/CPAN/arch/5.38
sudo cp -r /home/wim/slimserver-vendor/CPAN/build/5.38/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /opt/logitechmediaserver/CPAN/arch/5.38/
sudo unlink /usr/include/xlocale.h

Hope this helps others with perl-related issues

@Whs33, (@stef.an)

I had the same issue. I downloaded the tar.gz file from the branch 8.4 of the slimserver-vendor project. It has a different md256sum now. As I think the commit last week by mherger on github lead in a different tar.gz-file and in a different hash. I think the problem is to reference a branch that is work in progress. The slimserver-vendor-project did not nave any releases or tags. I'm not sure if one can download a specific commit (referenced by commit id) to overcome the hash issue. After I changed the sha256sums at the location for the slimserver-vendor-archive the build runs without problems. I have to say thank you for your work!

@stef.an I get a validity check fail on slimserver-vendor-public.

==> Validating source files with sha256sums...
    slimserver-8.3.1.tar.gz ... Passed
    slimserver-vendor-public-8.4.tar.gz ... FAILED
    logitechmediaserver.service ... Passed
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

On a different machine but still latest manjaro, LMS builds and works perfectly. Curious, I went back to the machine which failed and it now builds and runs LMS. Some update somewhere must have fixed things.

@stef.an: Thanks for maintaining this, I'd be happy to help if needed.
