You are wrong. The PKGBUILD already pulls from the gnome gitlab repo.

This seems to be not the AbiWord which is on the Gnome Gitlab? https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/AbiWord

Gnome Gitlab AbiWord has been last updated on Apr 20, 2021. Is there any way we can point this package to the GNOME repo?

The following snippet in PKGBUILD made the AC_MSG_ERROR error go away (but it's most likely not the proper fix):

prepare() {
...
export CXXFLAGS+=" -O3"
sed -i '/AC_INIT/ a m4_pattern_allow([AC_MSG_ERROR])' configure.ac
NOCONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh
...
}

Now the next error popping up is:

./configure: line 18458: syntax error near unexpected token `-fsanitize=$withval,'
./configure: line 18458: `      AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG(-fsanitize=$withval,'

I commented out the whole sanitizer section as this AS_IF is apparently not expanded correctly and written directly into the generated configure script:

dnl ***********************************************************************
dnl GCC/Clang sanitizer support
dnl ***********************************************************************
dnl AC_ARG_WITH([sanitizer],
dnl            [AS_HELP_STRING([--with-sanitizer=@<:@address/undefined/no@:>@],
dnl                            [Use specific GCC/Clang analyzer])],
dnl            [with_sanitizer=$withval],
dnl            [with_sanitizer=no])
dnl AS_IF([test "x$with_sanitizer" != "xno"],[
dnl     AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG([-fsanitize=$withval],
dnl                           [CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -fsanitize=$withval"
dnl                            CXXFLAGS="$CXXFLAGS -fsanitize=$withval"],
dnl                           [AC_MSG_ERROR([-fsanitize=$withval is not supported])])
dnl        AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS([-fno-omit-frame-pointer])
dnl        AC_LANG_PUSH(C++)
dnl        AX_APPEND_COMPILE_FLAGS([-fno-omit-frame-pointer])
dnl        AC_LANG_POP
dnl])

and the next section:

dnl ***************************************************************
dnl Excessive warnings
dnl ***************************************************************
dnl AC_LANG_PUSH(C++)
dnl AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG([-Werror=unknown-warning-option], [
dnl     ax_compiler_flags_test="-Werror=unknown-warning-option"
dnl], [
dnl     ax_compiler_flags_test=""
dnl])
dnl XXX enable these
dnl -Wformat-nonliteral
...
dnl ], [], [$ax_compiler_flags_test])

(sanitizers and warnings are useful for developers and maintainers, not when building the software, so I don't think I broke something..)

Maybe a incompatible or old version of https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_check_compile_flag.html is causing the problem.

Confirmed, but I do not have a fix for this. And it is not the same issue as in march, that one was fixed.

colinkeenan commented on 2017-06-26 05:57

I'm trying to build this in a clean chroot using

makechrootpkg -c -r $CHROOT

but I'm getting the same error @Rhinoceros told you about in March 2017:

haawda commented on 2017-05-29 14:11

Yes it is fixed. The repos' update to gcc 7 needs another fix. Please re-checkout.

jtojnar commented on 2017-05-28 03:21

@haawda It should be fixed in 35439.

haawda commented on 2017-04-20 22:24

This package currently does not build. I opened a bug report upstream.

Also, for the record, IMO you shouldn't be bumping VCS packages with every update either.

Rhinoceros commented on 2017-03-12 00:00

This fails to build, with the following error. I've built it fine previously (35397-1).

configure.ac:58: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR
