IF/WHEN the package goes out of date. Just download this repo and run ./update_pkg.sh and then build the package manually with makepkg. That should work until the version is updated on the AUR.

If anyone wants to help with the maintenance of the package (its basically executing a script, doing a sanity check, and then push to git), feel free to send me a mail. I've already added two people as co-maintainers. Lets see if that helps.

Just to let you know: The script update_pkg.sh downloads an old version of the package (90.0.4430.72), while the upstream-URL lists 107.0.5304.87 as the latest version.

I am not sure if this package is needed anymore anyway, since the HTML5-testvideo (https://help.vivaldi.com/desktop/media/html5-proprietary-media-on-linux/) runs without it.

There are newer codecs available for x86_64 in the community repo, just so you know. For all other architectures this package still seems to be quite fine :)

All fine for me on aarch64.

I just updated the multi-arch package using the script, and it seemed to work fine. Please install the updated package and let me know if something is broken. Thanks!

Cool. Just checked this on my aarch64 laptop and it works. I'll request deletion of my vivaldi-codecs-ffmpeg-extra-bin-arm package. In the meantime, could you add vivaldi-codecs-ffmpeg-extra-bin-arm to your replaces array.

PS: Both vivaldi-codecs-ffmpeg-extra-bin-arm64 & vivaldi-codecs-ffmpeg-extra-bin-rpi have been deleted from the AUR. You could remove them from the conflicts & provides arrays.

I just published the multiarch version of the package, and did a successful version bump before that. Please report any issues as soon as possible. Thank you!

@direct85 I just ran makepkg -srci on my Pinebook Pro (aarch64) to test the multiarch package you made. I encountered no errors, the Vivaldi prompt regarding missing codecs went away, and the Vivaldi ffmpeg test video worked. I think that counts as a success.

Sorry it's taken so long to get back to you regarding this.

@Feakster Sounds good! Everyone benefits if the packages can be combined in this way. I don't have any other platform to test than x86_64, but I wrote checks for the source files, and the test script to test building for different architectures.

Having said that, I wish someone with more experience than me would take look at the package before I push the changes to master.

Need to fix my Pinebook Pro (again) at the moment, so haven't had a chance to take a look at this. Hopefully, I should be able to get it sorted this week. I've taken a quick look at the PKGBUILD, and it seems fine. My only initial comment is that vivaldi-codecs-ffmpeg-extra-bin-rpi and vivaldi-codecs-ffmpeg-extra-bin-arm64 no longer exist. I merged them into vivaldi-codecs-ffmpeg-extra-bin-arm. Looks like I'll be able to either delete that package or merge it into this one soon :).

I created an updated version with all the changes included, with a build test script. I haven't uploaded it yet, because I have no prior experience with multi-arch packages, so please test the development version:

Please let me know if it works or not. Thanks everybody!

Edit: I updated the link URL, file.io only lets download once.
