Anydesk -- various issues

Issues & Assistance Unsupported Software (AUR & Other)

When I try to install Anydesk, which is in Chaotic repo, I get

sudo pacman -S anydesk
[sudo] password for shmuel:
resolving dependencies...
warning: cannot resolve "gtkglext", a dependency of "anydesk-bin"
:: The following package cannot be upgraded due to unresolvable dependencies:
anydesk-bin

I get the same error with the AUR package.

I was able to install the missing dependency gtkglext by git clone.

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/gtkglext.git

Strange that it didn’t work the usual way.
So now I have Anydesk installed, but it does not launch.
error:

anydesk

Ah yes, had the same issue yesterday but ignored it and simply did not install it.
Also because of the “manual way” what you tried is error-prone, and I simply wait for my pacman to do the “magic” :mage: and fix it some at some time.

This works:

1 aur/gtkglext 1.2.0-17 [+6 ~4.55] [Installed]
OpenGL extension for gtk2

Glad to hear it worked for you, but it didn’t work for me.

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gtkglext

apparently the package was moved to the AUR so you need to install it from there, might need the base-devel package to build it.

I used reflector-simple to choose different countries. This solved the installation issues.
But Anydesk still fails to launch. This is the error:

So I installed gtk-engine-murrine (the whole issue is probably related to the sweet Plasma theme and icons that D460nized uses)
and then I got a nice new error:
'anydesk' terminated by signal SIGSEGV (Address boundary error)
But there was already a thread about that:

I followed the advice given there, to remove the package appmenu-gtk-module and now Anydesk launches correctly.
