I'm going to have a talk with DrDonk to try to keep the v's uniform lol

Please update the URL again, V is v now.

@joethelion

Cheers, I didn't catch that lol

A note: the GitHub source has changed, so the zip file is not downloading. Correct source:

https://github.com/DrDonk/unlocker/releases/download/V4.2.2/unlocker422.zip

For some reason, the v has become V.

Cheers!

@stasadev hmm I'll have a look. It did not do that when I tested it

stasadev commented on 2022-07-20 14:05 (UTC)

The package installs these files in /usr/bin/iso/, but the post hook tries to find them in /usr/iso/.

Copying VMware Tools...
/usr/iso/darwinPre15.iso -> /usr/lib/vmware/isoimages/darwinPre15.iso
Error copying darwinPre15.iso
/usr/iso/darwin.iso -> /usr/lib/vmware/isoimages/darwin.iso
Error copying darwin.iso
ls /usr/bin/iso/
darwin.iso  darwinPre15.iso

@SimPilotAdamT You are welcome. Just looking up for my fave tools ;)

BTW still has the problem read what I typed..

There is no $pkgname/dist/ directory... replace that with just $srcdir/

Like so https://i.imgur.com/TIA6ToQ.png

@TexhXero thanks for spotting my very stupid mistake lol

Should be fixed now

PKGBUILD is wrong

install -Dm755 "$srcdir/$pkgname/dist/linux/"* "$pkgdir/usr/bin/"
install -Dm644 "$srcdir/$pkgname/dist/iso/"* "$pkgdir/usr/bin/iso/"
install -Dm644 "$srcdir/$pkgname/dist/LICENSE" "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE"

should be

install -Dm755 "$srcdir/linux/"* "$pkgdir/usr/bin/"
install -Dm644 "$srcdir/iso/"* "$pkgdir/usr/bin/iso/"
install -Dm644 "$srcdir/LICENSE" "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname/LICENSE"

There is no $pkgname/dist/ directory...

Just a heads up ;)
