If solve-field is now crashing for you with errors about removelines.py and fits.py Ensure you have updated your installation of python-astropy The newer version 3.0.4-1 from AUR prevents the crash.

0.94 is out.

Please update the package so it can be built with default settings common today (parallel build).

astrometry.net did not compile here ever, and the fix is a simple as

-    make SYSTEM_GSL=yes all py extra
+    make -C util config
+    make SYSTEM_GSL=yes all
+    make SYSTEM_GSL=yes py
+    make SYSTEM_GSL=yes extra

Please consider adding this to this AUR pkg.

Thanks so much for this. I had not understood the comment until your patient explanation. Transaction successfully finished!

@Lightwell - follow angelsl's comment. Before installing, edit the PKGBUILD, go to the build() section, and replace the make SYSTEM_GSL line there with the four lines in their comment:

make -C util config
make SYSTEM_GSL=yes all
make SYSTEM_GSL=yes py
make SYSTEM_GSL=yes extra

Then it'll work

Hi

Still not compiling on Manjaro with message

make: *** [Makefile:117: libkd-spherematch] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/pamac-build-richardh/astrometry.net/src/astrometry.net-0.85/util' ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

I note that @pozar87 has managed to make it work - can the revised MAKEFILE be posted?

Many thanks

Hi! I did finally managed to build this package on Manjaro. Perhaps it's just my setup, but previously I just need to disable parallel builds. This time however (0.85 version) it required a lot of changes in LDFLAGS and CFLAGS for make ...

The package's Makefile doesn't specify its dependencies properly, so building fails sporadically (and more often if you have high parallelism). The build() should be split up:

make -C util config
make SYSTEM_GSL=yes all
make SYSTEM_GSL=yes py
make SYSTEM_GSL=yes extra

Hi - Iḿ trying to make astrometry.net for Kstars on Manjaro.

I get the build error:

make[1]: No rule to make target '../util/libanutils.a', needed by 'spherematch_c.cpython-38-x86_64-linux-gnu.so'. Stop. make[1]: Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[1]: Leaving directory '/var/tmp/pamac-build-richardhornby/astrometry.net/src/astrometry.net-0.80/libkd' make: *** [Makefile:116: libkd-spherematch] Error 2 ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting...

I can´t find libanutils in pamac, and it is not listed as a dependency either for astrometry.net or for python-astropy.

I am at the limit of my learning curve and may well have missed something.

Help pls?

Hi! There is a problem with parallel build - see the https://github.com/dstndstn/astrometry.net/issues/178 I workaround it adding export MAKEFLAGS="-j 1" just before makes invocations - but I'm not sure its the best way :) Best Regards,
