Scrcpy: How time .deb package?

[systmrrr]

It is difficult to install on linux. Will the debian package come out?

[rom1v]

This would not be one .deb, but one per distrib+version+arch. Even if we limit to adm64, this would typically mean to create/maintain 2 or 3 versions for Debian + 2 or 3 versions for Ubuntu...

I would prefer it to be packaged by the distribution.

Someone recently submitted an RFS so that its package would be uploaded to the Debian official repositories. That would be awesome. But no answer for now.

Hi! Ideally these would be in the repositories for various distrols, but as this is not the case yet I have a deb on my site and the Ubuntu Forums. I'm interested in making tweaks and improving the deb, so please help with feedback :

https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2401019

I can maybe look at getting a ppa or something set up when I get some free time as I think just having a deb is probably not the best way of going about this, even in the short term.

I'm also interested in contacting anyone who has successfully managed to do the compile on Ubuntu or Debian. It would be great to have a detailed howto, to make it easier for people to compile on various Linux distros.

Hopefully people more involved in the distro communities will pick up on this wonderful application and get things integrated properly.

[systmrrr]

thank you
i will feedback

but link is dead?

[johnsie]

Link works ok for me. Let me know if you got it to work in the end. If not I'll put it on a mirror.

to download the deb file you need to try it with https my friend ....

[johnsie]

Thanks for the heads-up. Apologies. That's a personal server and I was changing the HDD and doing some OS/Software updates on it. Should be back now. If anyone wants to mirror it feel free.

Hello

I've just tried on my debian 9.6
I got this error
scrcpy: error while loading shared libraries: libavformat.so.58: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
libavformat-dev is installed

[johnsie]

Untested on debían. But try this..

apt-get install libavdevice58 libavfilter6

[camlafit]

Hello
I've tried to install these version, but I've got some conflict version with libavcodec58, libavfilter7, libavformat58, libsdl2-2.0-0

[Victor239]

Hopefully we'll get an AppImage (my preferred option), Snap or Flatpak package instead of a DEB or RPM #287. That way it'll mean @rom1v only has to support one method of installation on Linux but everyone can still use it.

[camlafit]

Hello

Will be nice to have a flatpak or any other standalone binary but has not same purpose than a deb/rpm/... provided by any other package system.

In case should be a great progress :) at least to try it

[sisco311]

Just created a snap: https://github.com/sisco311/scrcpy-snap
It's in the snap store. Next week I will try to focus on the documentation.

[rom1v]

@sisco311 Thank you :+1:

I created a package for Ubuntu 18.04, if you guys want to test this excellent program without effect the boot time of your system, here it is. https://mega.nz/#!HMlH1IyB!B0Xtx9HrUlrefzlcjp7MZDy-lYPoVfzsWDKZSxU-U5o

[el-guahiro]

Good instructions for compiling the program from the link

So, it's been over a year. What's the status on getting a PPA for this package? Getting it into the distro repos will take forever, and even if it is, it'll always be way out of date. A PPA would be much more preferable.

[bananenfisch]

Rolling distributions like Debian "sid" or "testing" are normally up-to-date, when a package gets maintained (and Ubuntu are based on testing). Looks like, scrcpy is just blocked, because it depends on the old JDK v8 (and not on latest JDK):

Good dayIf you install all the dependencies and deb package from here  https://mega.nz/#!HMlH1IyB!B0Xtx9HrUlrefzlcjp7MZDy-lYPoVfzsWDKZSxU-U5oor  from here https://yadi.sk/d/Ez8ykhFOjh-qyg  then everything works fine in Xubuntu 18.04.Probably, this deb package can be installed in the latest versions of Debian, you only need to roll back to JDK 8.I can't check, since I have Xubuntu 18.04 on all  devices.With best regardsAndrew Shirokov , el guahirohttps://forum.xubuntu-ru.net/index.php?board=9.0  27.10.2019, 19:28, "bananenfisch" [e-mail]:Rolling distributions like Debian "sid" or "testing" are normally up-to-date, when a package gets a maintainer (and Ubuntu are based on testing).

Thank you for the link. The last comment says:

blocked since upstream is unwilling to support JDK 9

I'm willing to support newer jdk, it's just that it seems the Android build system does not support it (see #3 #524).

If anyone have a solution for this, I would be happy to fix it.

[el-guahiro]

 Maybe you should make an appimage? Andew

In fact, it seems to work now. I just tested with java 11 (java 9 is not packaged in Debian sid anymore).

:-) thats good news - should i post it on debian tracker? may be, they are willing to maintain now...
