Using an AUR helper such as yay to build packages including backintime is HIGHLY discouraged. The recommended build method is to use a clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.

Please stop posting build failures because you insist on building with yay or other AUR helpers.

@dev_aryoda - It's not a problem. I updated the pkg to 1.4.0-3.

Aside from the unit tests failing

@hollunder Could you please show me the failing unit test(s) here once the checksum is corrected? I need at least the actual/expected output of the failing unit test + the code line number. THX!

@hollunder

Aside from the unit tests failing I get, after a fresh download, a checksum failure: pr1536.patch ... FAILED

We (= the BiT developers) have added another commit to the BiT pull request to include a CHANGELOG entry and this seems to have changed the checksum since the patch takes the diff of the full PR.

@graysky Sorry for that, we didn't realize that impact. We will keep the PR stable now (no more commits)

@buhtz - some TU has to want to adopt it.

Hello Graysky,

I learned that AUR packages can move into official Arch repo based on votes. Your package does have nearly 300 votes. So do you see a way to get it into the offical repos?

Kind Christian

I have just fixed my non-working fix for the failing unit test in BiT on the dev branch (see my issue comment: https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/issues/1429#issuecomment-1646667642)

@pipep @leonardof @graysky

Thanks for reporting and testing, this made it easier for me to recognize my mistake.

Note: The fix is not yet contained in a new release of BiT so make sure to use the HEAD of the dev branch of BiT
