Arch Linux User Repository

Builds fine for me now in a clean chroot too, so I reverted the changes and made it a version 0.4.2-6.

Version 0.4.2-5 breaks my system since it produces a wrongly versioned library file: libattica.so.1.0.0 instead of libattica.so.0.4.2. I reverted to attica-qt4-0.4.2-4 (built from clean chroot) and it seems to fix the problems.

FWIW I had to downgrade attica-qt4 to the qt4-built version to get the stable qt4-version of Amarok to work.

I don't understand the point to label this package "qt4" if we end up building it with qt5...

And another patch to install it into the correct directory & fix namcap errors:

It works fine however on my framework with the tarball (outside of a git repo), so far I can't recreate this blunder with any setup or variant, yet I don't see a motivation behind why it should work now for individuals that experienced this issue before.https://www.assignmentprofs.co.uk/

cant install getting this error CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:10 (find_package)

Please change source URL to TLS encrypted https variant. Tested and works fine. Thanks! :)
