Problème avec lib32-ncurses5-compat-libs

I encountered the same problem. My workaround was to clone https://aur.archlinux.org/lib32-ncurses5-compat-libs.git and perform the necessary updates. and install lib32-ncurses5-compat-libs from local

I just replace 6.5 by 6.6 and rebuild locally the package

I encounter errors when updating the system today with the lib32-ncurses5-compat-lib

I had to remove aosp-devel to be able to update the system and now when i try to reinstall i have the following error :

https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/noto-fonts/ is a must for lineage22 based on Android 15, please add it to the dependencies.

micwoj92 commented on 2024-10-19 23:58 (UTC)

Please replace gcc-multilib with gcc.

dreieck commented on 2024-07-24 09:33 (UTC)

Why is ccache needed as a dependency? Can it be moved to optional dependency?

timschumi commented on 2023-08-11 10:06 (UTC)

Java I will move to the optional dependencies with an appropriate notice.

Also the dependency "python2-virtualenv" is read and not available. Please remove it.

No, I won't. That package should have been moved to the AUR when it was dropped. The fact that it wasn't isn't this packages fault, and there is no reason to remove it from the list as long as it is optional.

And why "wxgtk2" is needed?

wxgtk has been in the list of dependencies ever since the initial revision of the build dependencies section on the Arch Wiki (in July of 2012). I'm sure there was a reason why this was added (although it apparently wasn't ever properly documented by Google), but that has since been lost to time (or it's an obscure part of the build system).

MartinX3 commented on 2023-08-11 08:54 (UTC)

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sdkmanager
The sdkmanager is not part of the dependencies of this package.
Also the sdkmanager needs to add java to its own dependencies if it requirieres it.

Also the dependency "python2-virtualenv" is read and not available.
Please remove it.

And why "wxgtk2" is needed?

Anyway please cleanup the dependencies of this package.
Here are two links which packages are needed to compile aosp:
https://developer.sony.com/open-source/aosp-on-xperia-open-devices/guides/aosp-build-instructions/build-aosp-android-13/
https://source.android.com/docs/setup/start/initializing#installing-required-packages-ubuntu-1804

yurikoles commented on 2023-08-11 07:56 (UTC)

But some tools like sdkmanager still require it.

Molyuu commented on 2023-08-11 07:31 (UTC) (edited on 2023-08-11 07:32 (UTC) by Molyuu)

Java environment has been prebuilt in AOSP since Android 9, better move these to optional dependencies.
