djl was flagged as out of date in yaourt/AUR, so I emailed off to the maintainer (who isn't the maintainer any more). Here's the reply:

You know, I've been the main djl's developper and I don't work on it anymore, so djl is out of date himself ^^

I think about a new software based on Qt/C++ more likelly as Valve's Steam, but it's just a project on the box for now.
I'm sorry if you use djl, but for the moment i can't update it :/

bye

Great research! I had my suspicions, that thing has not been working right for a long time

Yeah, it's just sitting there undeveloped and unmaintained for now. I even tried joining the djl forum earlier today; still haven't even received confirmation email to register!

I r fixored it. I went to the site, and downloaded the tar.gz, extracted it to /home.
I ran djl.sh from the extracted folder, and got an all-too-familiar error:

Code: Select all

 sh djl.sh
  File "djl.py", line 49
    except ImportError, x:
                      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Got looking at the file itself (djl.sh):

Code: Select all

cat djl.sh
#!/bin/sh

cd `dirname $0`/djl
python -O djl.py $*

Got thinking, hhmmm... wonder what would happen if I just made one little bitty change here?

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh

cd `dirname $0`/djl
python2 -O djl.py $*

Yup, it started right up.

Now to figure out how to get this submitted to AUR... ugh.
