In case that perl-gtk2-notify prevents the perl update to 5.28, please remove perl-gtk2-notify:

pacman -Rdd perl-gtk2-notify

then do the update and then install it again

$YOUR_FAVORITE_AUR_HELPER -S perl-gtk2-notify

In case there is a better solution, please let me know! :)

This package currently installs in the wrong folder. As it is it installs into /home/user/perl5/... where is it should install into /usr/lib/perl5/... The difference, though small causes programs such as gmusicbrowser to not find the library if they're started with a .desktop file (it still works if you start it from the terminal). To install the library into the correct place please change the following line in the package() function from: make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install to make install INSTALLDIRS=vendor DESTDIR="$pkgdir" Thank you.

My bad, I realize that you made also some changes to the PKGBUILD and I have just updated the patch file. I think, it's better if you take care of this package, so I have disowned it. Thanks!

Use the PKGBUILD and libnotify.patch files here: https://gist.github.com/bbidulock/9055fabe53bf16128012 and you won't have any problem.

Updated the md5sum, will have a look at the other problem a little later. Thanks for reporting!

I updated the checksums updpkgsums and now I have this one: can't find file to patch at input line 4 Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option? The text leading up to this was: -------------------------- |diff -up src/Gtk2-Notify-0.05/lib/Gtk2/Notify.pm.orig src/Gtk2-Notify-0.05/lib/Gtk2/Notify.pm |--- src/Gtk2-Notify-0.05/lib/Gtk2/Notify.pm.orig 2008-11-11 23:47:33.000000000 -0700 |+++ src/Gtk2-Notify-0.05/lib/Gtk2/Notify.pm 2015-07-07 20:02:12.000000000 -0600 -------------------------- File to patch:

Thanks, updated!

@PhotonX: yes, the libnotify.patch on gist adds the get_closed_reason method (it is really only two lines in the Notify.xs file). Upstream hasn't changed anything in over 4 years and, if you recall, there a lot of other patches in libnotify.patch that were required and we put in to bring the old package up to date. (cf. 2013-02-22 below).

@bidulock: Should I include the modified libnotify.patch into the package?
