FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (read before flagging or commenting!)

  • What is the difference between this package and the one in the community repo?

This is the official binary distribution from Microsoft. The one in the community repo is an unofficial build made from source. Beyond the license difference and branding, there are some proprietary features not available in the open source version.

  • There is a new version out, why is the package not updated?

Please check this page before flagging as out-of-date. If there is no new version on that page, it's not yet released. A tag on Github is NOT a release! If you can see the new version on the updates page but the AUR package is still not updated, flag it and give it time. It's usually done within a day or two.

  • I'm using an AUR helper (yay, yaourt etc.) and I can't install it. Why?

Sometimes AUR helpers do weird things. Download the tarball and install it manually with makepkg -si. If that works, report the problem to your AUR helper's upstream, not here.

  • When I install this package xdg-open uses vscode, not my file manager! How do I fix this?

Install shared-mime-info-gnome. Also see this reddit thread.

  • Why is $X a dependency? I don't like it.

Just because $X is not required to open the app, doesn't mean there is nothing that depends on it. Always search the comment history on AUR to see if that dependency has been previously discussed before writing your own comment. Still nothing? Then use namcap to make sure it's really not needed. If namcap doesn't complain, please leave a comment here and I'll investigate.

  • Something is broken with the app, where do I report it?

The problem might be a packaging issue (wrong paths, dependencies, icons), so please write a comment here first. If you don't get a reply, or if someone says it's an upstream issue, you can report it on Github.

  • I have a problem with this package, can I email you?

No, you won't get a reply. Please stop doing this. Leave a comment here instead and be patient.

@TTsdzb fixed, thanks.

TTsdzb commented on 2024-05-03 03:02 (UTC)

Could not open folder or files in file explorers. VSCode will start but opens a clean window instead of the requested file or folder.

The argument --unity-launch seems deprecated:

$ code --unity-launch
Warning: 'unity-launch' is not in the list of known options, but still passed to Electron/Chromium.

Removed this in the desktop entry, and it works fine now.

@st0ne @blueman Try to disable debug by adding a exclamation mark before it in /etc/makepkg.conf:

OPTIONS=(strip docs !libtool !staticlibs emptydirs zipman purge !debug lto)

This will prevent makepkg from generating corresponding debug packages. Not sure if there're side effects, but it works fine for me.

blueman commented on 2024-05-02 19:11 (UTC)

I've got the same "debugedit" warnings as @st0ne. Any idea what's causing this?

@shore you're welcome to use "Flag package out-of-date" in this page with a link to the new version instead of commenting

Out of date .....

hi with Update to 1.88.0 on $ makepkg -si ==> ERROR: Cannot find the debugedit binary required for including source files in debug packages.

@eryn.zofia and @laasonen, refer to previous comments regarding debug flag being flipped in /etc/makepkg.conf:100

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/code.desktop?h=visual-studio-code-bin

the --unity-launch leads to tiny cursors on HiDPI settings.

See https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/136390#issuecomment-2020292160

https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/209471

The fastest fix is to delete the --unity-launch option, just /usr/bin/code is fine.
