I will maintain this until it stops working, but this package should be considered "legacy" and the new Reference Manager (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mendeley-reference-manager) preferred.

To avoid crashs when opening PDF's, and hangout on exit install mendeleydesktop-bundled which packages Qt provided by the upstream.

@liusp Hi, it's true libpng from EXTRA instead libpng12! My apologies. I update the PKGBUILD, please test it and report. I'm Gnome user, so, I can't have problems with QT themes. :-P I can't delete the /opt/mendeleydesktop/lib/libQt*, otherwise non-KDE users will not start Mendeley... I will look for a workaround. Thank you!

@alexcortes Thx for your reply! 1. I can't find libpng12 in EXTRA... Only libpng 1.4 there. 2. Mendeley can run with the OPT files, but the GUI style is missing, just a non-themed qt GUI. When I delete the libQT** files in the /opt/mendeletdesktop/lib, Mendeley will use the library files in /usr/lib directly, and then the qt theme comes back.

Hi @liusp!!! It's working pretty with libpng12 from EXTRA at my side, without any issues. I believe the mendeley run pretty with the files in OPT, but Arch Linux doesn't work, for standard, with OPT files. So, is possible to make links from opt to /usr/lib, but i don't think this is a pretty nice. I'll look about the others issues. Thank you.

@alexcortes I believe that Qt libraries in this package can be deleted. All of them are included in the "qt" package, and mendeley can run with them smoothly. Also, the Qt lib files in this package will change the GUI style of this program separately. Using the ones in qt package will not lead to this flaw.

@alexcortes @jxy The library dependence of this package is weird. If you directly use the libpng12 package in AUR, it will said "libpng warning: Application was compiled with png.h from libpng-1.4.5 libpng warning: Application is running with png.c from libpng-1.2.44" and all of the icons are missing. However, if you use the libpng.so.3 provided in the /opt/mendeleydesktop/lib folder, the program is running OK.

@kb110 Hi, If you update the version in PKGBUILD, you need to create news md5sums for new sources: "makepkg -g" Thanks.
