Why not pull the .deb already-compiled and make it a package? Seems like it would solve the dependency issues... and there is i386 and amd64 available:

https://download.jitsi.org/stable/jitsi_2.10.5550-1_amd64.deb https://download.jitsi.org/stable/jitsi_2.10.5550-1_i386.deb

Why did they stop updating this software after they were acquired by 8x8?

Hi,

Here's are two patches for jitsi:

Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Fix license spelling

The license name is apache as its directory is spelled that way[1].
This commit is based on the following commit:
4f2994c27 pcr/jitsi: updated to 2.10.5550
in the git://git.parabola.nu/abslibre.git repository.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Fix building failure due to missing
 /etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh

/etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh cannot be found extra/ant,
extra/ant-doc or in AUR's apache-ant-contrib.

It was probably in one of theses packages before and
may have been removed because it's not required anymore.

2.21.0

In order to have this install correctly:

1) Select jdk8-openjdk (option 4) when installing java-environment (it compiles with that version only)

2)Comment . /etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh from PKBUILD or remove the line.

3) make sure your HOME_JAVA is set right (use archlinux-java) :

$archlinux-java get java-8-openjdk

Is it still properly installed if apache-ant.sh is jsut not run? If it's not there, shouldn't the appropriate script be run instead of it?

removing the line 26 from the PKGBUILD fix the problem

On install I get this error: /tmp/pamac-build/jitsi/PKGBUILD: line 26: /etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh: No such file or directory

Why is this marked out-of-date? It appears to package the current version.

In my case it installed the package ant (v1.10.5-1) as makedependency, which provides apache-ant and has no such file /etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh. You could uncomment the correspondent line 26 in PKGBUILD's build() as workaround:

. /etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh

As alternative, you can replace the makedepend with package apache-ant-10 (also v1.10.5-1), which still provides the missing file /etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh.

But then I had to set the JAVA_HOME environment variable (jdk8-openjdk/jre8-openjdk):

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/default

and import the missing and unknown public key A2115AE15F6B8B72 for downloaded file apache-ant-1.10.5-src.tar.bz2 in the local keyring:

gpg --recv-keys A2115AE15F6B8B72

The file /etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh only sets the proper path into the environment variable ANT_HOME. I think both workarounds produce the same results, because they are the same ant version and both set a valid ANT_HOME environment variable, whilst the former uses another config file and doesn't know the file jitsi wants to source while build. As long as you don't want to change the default ant paths you should be fine with both solutions.

/home/steven/.cache/yay/jitsi/PKGBUILD: line 26: /etc/profile.d/apache-ant.sh: No such file or directory

This doesn't build with java10, needs java 8:

depends=('java-runtime=8') makedepends=('apache-ant' 'java-environment-common' 'java-environment=8')
