I added the line.
Anyway I don't think people should be using this package with stable kernels. Using a kernel the includes ashmem and binder modules like extra/linux-zen (or one of the tkg kernels build by chaotic-aur) is a better choice, since you don't have to deal with such issues.
@eNV25 can you add a patch to the PKGBUILD that applies that one-line change?
I'm getting
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
anbox-modules-dkms-git: /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/99-anbox.rules exists in filesystem (owned by anbox-git)
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.
removing untracked AUR files from cache...
-> exit status 1
Morta: To build with 5.18, upstream has to merge this simple change. Until then edit the PKGBUILD to use the PR in sources.
What was the rush with the merged packages, took 2 minutes to fix?
Git packages that don't use #tag= or #commit= should use -git suffix. The package should also have a pkgver() function.
~~Ok then. I'll post in the mailing list to not merge since you changed the PKGBUILD.~~
Actually the merge request still stands because you are using the master branch. No need to ask the choff to add versions if they don't want to. I'll add you as co-maintainer for this package if it is merged.
edit: fixed and followed exactly the module here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DKMS_package_guidelines
I simply changed the original PKGBUILD from 2017: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/log/?h=anbox-modules-dkms
The module itself is hacked up version of the previous one, I see plenty of DKMS packages using git.
I’ve asked choff to do tags and releases regardless, it’s only a month old.

Avoid this package if you can, updates may fail to build in new kernel versions. Review the ArchWiki again to see if you really need this package.
If need this package, it should preferably be used with an Long-Term Support (LTS) kernel, like
linux-lts. Newer Arch Linux kernel versions are more likely to not work, as the upstream maintainer does not use those.For newer kernel that fail to build, there is often a PR that fixes the issue. For such cases, you could make local changes to the
PKGBUILDto point to the PR. This is not friendly to AUR helpers, so it is simpler for most people to avoid this package as I explained above.sickcodes commented on 2021-09-27 20:52 (UTC) (edited on 2021-12-13 03:10 (UTC) by sickcodes)
This has been adjusted to build on 5.10-5.15 thank you to legend Christian Hoff!

DKMS add modules, without reboot:
sudo modprobe binder_linux devices=binder,hwbinder,vndbinder,anbox-binder,anbox-hwbinder,anbox-vndbindersudo modprobe ashmem_linuxThe simplest way is to boot into https://archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/linux-lts/
