1.0.1.0-3a - More build improvements

We no longer need git to build. Passing -p:BuildHash=commit# will allow dotnet to build without a git repository or internet access. This also results in a significant speedup in build time, at least locally.

1.0.1.0-3 is here. Minor update.

This release isn't actually any different. Changes were made to make the build system work a lot better, the .spec file was cleaned up, and a changelog was added. There is now a script file in the .copr directory to download tarball sources, and the readme was updated with new instructions for installing on Fedora and openSUSE.

1.0.1.0-2 Now with COPR support!

You can now install this on fedora with sudo dnf copr enable rankyn/xivlauncher and sudo dnf install XIVLauncher. For this release, you'll also want to delete the ~/.xlcore/compatabilitytool/ folder so you can get the proper wine version built against fedora libraries.

XIVLauncher 1.0.1.0-1 for patch 6.2

First release of native xlcore for Fedora (and probably openSUSE and redhat 9) for Final Fantasy XIV patch 6.2.

Canary release on August 6

Up to date as of 2022-Aug-06. Should work in fedora 35/36/rawhide and openSUSE LEAP 15.4. May work in other versions of fedora, redhat 9 and derivatives, and openSUSE.

1.0.0.9-3 Now with openSUSE! Sort of...

This release installs in fedora 35 and 36, openSUSE LEAP 15.4, and Is now signed. Chances are your package manager will complain that it doesn't recognize the signature. Ignore that. It's basically saying it doesn't know who I am, which of course not. I suspect if/when I start using the Open Build System that problem will go away.

No other changes for this release. I've changed the LICENSE file to COPYING to comply with the suggestions of the free software foundation, tweaked the spec file and readme, and signed the rpm, but otherwise there's no real changes from release 2.

New release - 1.0.0.9-2. Possibly has integrity check fixes.

Build from the 6.2.44 tag (even though it's not an official release yet). May have file integrity check fixes. I'm not sure if that's working in linux. Regardless, here's the new build. Also overhauled the .spec file to do git clones instead of downloading tarballs from github. We are real coders! We ball our own tars. Or something. The dirty hack of initializing a git repo from an unzipped tarball is now only used when building from the src.rpm.

Edit: Installs and runs in Fedora 35, as expected. Does not quite install in openSUSE: libFAudio in fedora is libFAudio0 in openSUSE. Installing libFAudio0 and then ignoring the missing dependency lets XIVLauncher run, although zypper complains about the rpm not being signed. Will fix in next release. Progress!

First RPM build of XIVLauncher 1.0.0.9-1 released

Here's a native version of XIVLauncher for Fedora 36, and probably other Fedora versions. For some reason it's coming up as proprietary software despite being listed as GPLv3. I'll figure that out later, but it's safe to ignore.
