@Pandor java8-openjfx does not provide java-openjfx=8

Is there any reason why this package depends on "java8-openjfx" and not "java-openjfx=8"? i'm cleaning my system from python2 packages, since it will no longer be maintained. "jre8" provides "java-openjfx=8", and unlike "java8-openjfx" it does not have a dependency on "python2". this is the only package keeping me from removing python2 completely.

Seems latest version is 5.2. May I request to update the package build?

Yeah, apparently the udev hook notifies MPLABX of device hotplug/removal via a local tcp socket so udev needs this permission

Funny thing, libjlinkpic32 uses libudev which supports monitoring the bus for those events. Of course they don't use that.

Anyway, I've added the workaround since there's no (easy) way around it

New v5.00 is out, md5sum: 95ff99a1c94ff6dfd7fdf50b6a113216

One thing I didn't realise is that systemd-udev needs to be tweaked to get the programmers working correctly (I have been strggling with slightly buggy programmers for a few months). There is a warning when running the installer (can't say that I've noticed it before), do you think it's worth adding to the PKGBUILD in case people are updating/installing this from an AUR package manager (like I have been doing)?

The warning reads:

"MPLAB X IDE and IPE use systemd to handle USB plug and play events. They do this by using sockets as an interprocess communications mechanism.

Please make sure that interprocess communications under systemd are allowed in the local host. Some Linux distributions do not allow interprocess communications. For example, if the following option is set in the systemd-udevd unit configuration file: "IPAddressDeny=any" then MPLAB X communications library will not be able to handle plug and play events. You might need to create an override file containing this option: "IPAddressAllow=localhost"

Thank you for updating the package. I have detected some potential issues using namcap. The output is a bit verbose and namcap isn't right about everything, so it would require someone more familiar with the package to determine what if anything needs to be done.

Here is the full namcap output: https://pastebin.com/ZAyW5qUS

Probably the most significant issue is just the inaccurate dependencies and referenced libraries that are not in an installed dependency. I am building in a clean chroot, so if it isn't in the depends array it isn't on the filesystem.

According to namcap output,

Included and not needed:

- gtk2
- alsa-lib
- libxslt
- libxtst
- java-runtime
- java-openjfx

Not included and needed:

- lib32-glibc
- java-environment

Referenced libraries that namcap doesn't see on the fs or know a dependency for:

- libstdc++.so.6
- libc.so.1
- libc.so.7
- libpthread.so.1
- libgcc_s.so.1
- libthr.so.3
- libsocket.so.1
- libdl.so.1

The ELF files outside of a valid path error can be fixed by installing to /usr/lib instead of /opt, but maybe the package requires it to be installed in /opt.

The insecure RPATH errors are from executables specifying an RPATH other than /usr/lib. That can be altered on an existing binary with chrpath but that is probably more trouble than it's worth.

Thank you!

Yeah, they moved stuff around. It's now up to date

I attempted to upgrade this package to v4.20 and run into the following error:

The udev rules have been updated.  Some distributions require that you re-start your computer for the changes to take effect otherwise USB communications and/or hotplug will not work.

It appears that the directory structure has changed since version 4.15. pkg/microchip-mplabx-bin/opt/microchip/mplabx/v4.20/mplab_ide/ is now moved to pkg/microchip-mplabx-bin/opt/microchip/mplabx/v4.20/mplab_platform/ along with the mplab_ipe folder. Some other files have moved around too so I don't feel comfortable guessing what will be required to upgrade this. I hope the package maintainer can update to the latest version shortly.

The option upx has been deprecated. There is no need to include !upx in the options array.

Only works with openjdk 8 here (tested with 9 and 10, IPE keeps loading the HEX file). In fact, java-openjfx requires jdk8.

To make it work: sudo archlinux-java set java-8-openjdk/jre
