Eddie AUR package broken

[NTG-A 0]

The AUR package which was updated today seems kinda broken: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/eddie-ui/

First of all a problem with the pkgbuild:

/var/tmp/pamac-build-user/eddie-ui/PKGBUILD: line 33: cd: too many arguments
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

If you fix the pkgbuild by replacing

cd *

with

cd "Eddie-$pkgver"

you get this client:

I have similar errors trying to build from the aur. Was this supposed to be a git build pushed onto stable accidentally or something?

I got the same broken UI.

Me too

I had to replace

cd * # First folder

with

cd Eddie-2.18.9 # First folder

In both lines 33 and 50 in PKGBUILD.

But it works fine for me.

Confirmed. @eburom fix works. Thank you. Maybe topic should be marked "fixed"?

It's not fixed "upstream".

If it gets fixed, feel free to mark any post as best answer @everyone.

I literally wrote in the post that this doesn't fix the broken UI...

Edit: Looks like it's not broken on all DEs. Gnome works, KDE not.

Edit2: For some reason it works when you start it from terminal with sudo.

Edit3: I just saw that eddie-ui-git was updated today and the PKGBUILD error is still there. Sorry, but this seems really unprofessional. This was reported more than 5 days ago.

Thanks, this works for me as well on XFCE. 🙂
I also installed the optional dependency stunnel to get rid of that SSL warning message at startup.

It Looks like it's been fixed, at least the building issue.
Don't know about the other GUI problem you had though.
