I'm not as concerned about rebuilding the package in my machine (it's already running), as I am about the health of the package manifest, for all users. In other words: it would have been nice receiving a warning the last time I updated my machine, that by updating libjxl I was going to break pix.

Notice like this for the AUR before building are not possible

On one of my pkgbuilds have been mentioned: implement checkrebuild from rebuild-detector into your workflow.

bruno.unna - this is done by bumping pkgrel, helpers will then rebuild since a new version is indicated.

I did it this time since prompted, but typically wouldn't bother. Most aur users should know to rebuild when encountering an error like this, so a late pkgrel bump will just mean an unnecessary second rebuild for them.

Thanks @FabioLolix, but I think I didn't express myself correctly before.

If that's just impossible (I'm not an expert on PKGBUILD-ing), then I'll just assume it.

You need to rebuild pix to link against the new so versions

Hi! Today I realised that I can't run pix. It complains like this:

And indeed, libjxl was updated to 0.10.2-1 on the 9th of March.

I'm not clear how this could be fixed, as the patch to support jxl 0.9.0 is an external source. Ideas (other than downgrading libjxl)?

Hi! The PKGBUILD is missing gst-plugin-gtk dependency. Without it video plays in a separate window. Could you please add it?

Just an FYI, Pix is a fork of GThumb, so just about anything that applies to the latter applies to the former. ;)

katsy commented on 2024-01-20 19:09 (UTC)

working again, thank you

ion203 commented on 2024-01-20 16:16 (UTC)

Confirmed patch work is fine unmodified, it's been added for 3.2.2-2

Thanks yochananmarqos for saving me time looking for it :)

@ion203: The patch found here is needed to rebuild on libjxl 0.9.0: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gthumb/-/issues/306
