Lightworks on Arch Linux

bhush · 2013-05-03 14:43:45

So I have managed to write initial PKGBUILD for Lightworks.

https://github.com/bhush9/lightworks-arch

After installation it requires you to install libtiff4 from the AUR,

Now thing is sign in is not working yet...

Does installing openssl fix problem or what...?

I'm confused. If the package "libtiff4" is required, why isn't "libtiff4" in "depends"?

bhush · 2013-05-03 16:19:03

okay changed libtiff to libtiff4

anonymous_user · 2013-05-03 18:03:43

BTW what is the point of having:

conflicts=("lightworks")
provides=("lightworks"="11.1")

The first is simply strange. Whats the point of conflicting with itself? And the second, do other programs rely on lightworks?

Also I cannot download the source url. Do you need an account to access the download?

yes

I had to install nvidia-cg-toolkit to make it work. I was getting this without it :

/usr/lib/lightworks/spawn: error while loading shared libraries: libCg.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

And had some other minor problems during lightworks package installation

warning: directory permissions differ on /usr/share/lightworks/Preferences/
filesystem: 777  package: 755
ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘./libcurl.so’: File exists
error: command failed to execute correctly

Worked anyway though

When I try to run it, I get:

/usr/lib/lightworks/ntcardvt: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0: no version information available (required by /usr/lib/lightworks/libOSPrivate.so)

The startup splash screen just hangs at Initialising play engine.... (and they spelled "initialising" that way).

Re install openssl

mrunion · 2013-05-08 01:46:40

I re-installed openssl and still get the same issue. Thanks for trying, though!

Scimmia · 2013-05-08 01:55:01

AFAIK, that *shouldn't* matter, as that's more a warning than anything and shouldn't affect the function of the program. The situation is that debian/ubuntu patch openssl to provide versioned symbols. Arch, of course, doesn't patch packages if they can help it.

mrunion · 2013-05-08 23:16:20

Cool. Thanks for the info. For whatever reason, it just sticks on the initialization screen above no matter how long I wait -- progress bar stays 50% across and no further movement.

Thanks again for the help, though.

Same here for me. Also re-installed openssl but no go...

Do

ln -s /usr/lib/libcurl.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so

and lightworks will work properly

mrunion · 2013-05-10 01:51:11

sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libcurl.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so
[sudo] password for <xxxxxxx>: 
ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcurl.so’: No such file or directory

I didn't have 'x86_84-linux-gnu directory on machine. I created it and re-issued the link command. I re-ran lightworks and still got the same problem.

I assume this just won't run for some people? I don't know if there is a missing dependency or something. Thanks for all the suggestions!

I found what causes the error startup error: JACK sound server. By stopping jack portaudio does not raise an error and the program starts. I found that in ~/Lightworks/Logs/StdErr.log

I also had to create /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu directory and then create symbolic link. I don't have nvidia graphic card but also had to install nvidia-cg-toolkit to make lwks working.

The new AUR PKGBUILD already takes care of it

I will try building from AUR again. FWIW, this is all that is in my log:

FWIW, it's finally running! For a few days I as getting corrupted downloads -- the data.tar.gz file was corrupt in the DEB file.

Anyway, I recompiled and it is running now. Woohoo!

Is it normal that when it ran I have a Pro license that expires in 7 days?

Yes!

Daerun · 2013-11-18 17:59:21

Will this program be available again, now that a beta has been released?

Is anyone experiencing laggy/very slow performance with lightworks?

http://www.lwks.com/index.php?option=co … &Itemid=81

ChemBro · 2014-01-30 00:26:46

It's final and out for Linux. Any progress with the AUR package?

lwks 11.1.H-2 outdated and it looks like kallisti5 has provided a pkgbuild for version 11.5 but I'm having problems with the build. It requires libtiff4 which I have installed:

[a@StudioA ~]$ yaourt libtiff4
1 aur/lib32-libtiff4 1:3.9.5-6 (48)
    A package that installs libtiff.so.4
2 aur/libtiff4 3.9.7-2 [installed] (117)

but this shows that it's going to be built from AUR:

==> lwks dependencies:
 - gtk3 (already installed)
 - portaudio_cpp (already installed)
 - libgl (already installed)
 - glu (already installed)
 - ffmpeg (already installed)
 - libedit (already installed)
 - libtiff4, (building from AUR)
 - nvidia-cg-toolkit (package found)

and then:

==> Building and installing package
==> Install or build missing dependencies for lwks:
error: target not found: libtiff4,
==> Restart building lwks ? [y/N]
==> -----------------------------
==>

Can anyone help with what I may be missing here?

Thanks
