Recently Jellyfin client was crashing under Garuda distro. Instead of doing proper troubleshooting I just deleted it via package manager but... I did not pay attention under what repo it was (AUR?) and could not find it anymore to reinstall it. Has it been removed from the repo? Who should I ask? I solved my problem by installing flatpak but somehow I would prefer to have it in an Arch/garuda repo.

The package is jellyfin-media-player. But I'm having a lot of trouble with it at the moment. They've changed the dependencies, and so a couple of qt5 dependencies need to be rebuilt, but they're both failing to install for me at the moment...

I've just been using Fladder as my client instead.

I ran into the same issue and managed to get jellyfin-media-client to update/install again by first installing icu76, which includes the required Qt5 dependencies.

I can't find it anymore under that name, hence my question: in which repo?

It's AUR, not a repo

FWIW, the jellyfin flatpak is the official client from jellyfin and has all the codecs baked in. I run it on my arch (BTW) install and havent been having any problems.

This. Use the flatpak and it will just work, indefinitely.

The audio is strange on my flatpak version. It's like it's downmixing to stereo or something...
