houdini: change sha256, add missing libs, fix license dir patch, fix … #27480
Conversation
…keyboard input - Changed sha256 of src file, as this was apparantly changed on the website - Added missing libs: some X libs, alsa, dbus - Changed patch to $out/houdini/Licensing.opt localValidatorDir = ... was commented out in original file so sed had no effect - add export QT_XKB_CONFIG_ROOT Without it only modifier keys worked, no text input

I don't think it's related. Making the license checker happy was the main chore in writing this package in the first place. I stopped fiddling with things as soon as it started working on my system, @antonxy is just removing a redundant hack that I left in and changing a config option that should have been changed. (I wonder why it worked without that change on my box though?)

I just went to download the installer from their website and it looks like the minor version number has changed (633 => 671). Which would explain the checksum failure. @antonxy could you change that in the PR aswell? |

Are they serving 671 at the 633 url? |

There isn't a URL in the package (it uses |

I did download the 633 version from the production builds section. I could of course get the current version, check if it works and update it. |
