$ abook -h

abook v0.6.2



They did change the man pages 'abook' and 'abookrc', but forgot to change the date,


.TH ABOOK 1 2006-09-06

                              2006-09-06                          ABOOK(1)


Most notable change,

   abookrc is stored in a user's $HOME/.abook or XDG_DATA_HOME/abook

```

I've tried to build it, but gcc errors out on database.c, which was resolved in one of subsequent commits 39484721c44629fb1f54d92f09c92ef4c3201302. I would wait for correcting release.

@eugene This was indeed the issue, the package builds fine after cleaning the caches. Thank you for the help!

eugene commented on 2025-01-28 17:10 (UTC)

I see your issue, @Pablo. yay keeps using old version of PKGBUILD. I have not increased release number to not force unnecessary rebuilds for existing users, so yay treats cached version of PKGBUILD as current one. I would suggest you to make sure PKGBUILD you are building against is the latest one.

Pablo commented on 2025-01-28 17:03 (UTC) (edited on 2025-01-28 17:04 (UTC) by Pablo)

@eugene I still get the same error when trying to install via yay. Please find attached the complete output of yay: https://pastebin.com/gG3jjSRB

Let me know if I can be of any help.

eugene commented on 2025-01-26 23:03 (UTC)

It builds in clean environment, @Pablo. But anyway, I've re-implemented gettext fix in different way. Try to build it again and let me know please.
