Installing JPilot on Arch

This post is a quick tip for anyone else running into issues installing the Palm Pilot desktop software, JPilot on Arch Linux. If you just try installing via yay -S jpilot, the build will fail as the dependency pilot-link no longer builds on modern systems. The solution is to first install pilot-link-git, then jpilot.

  1. yay -S pilot-link-git
  2. yay -S jpilot
  3. Profit!
