Arch Linux User Repository

I needed to run makepkg this way to build chez-scheme-git:

LANG=C makepkg

Thanks jonathon, just pushed a new pkgrel.

xproto isn't in the repos any more but xorgproto should work fine:

I get the following build error when I try to build this package with yay:

install: cannot create regular file '/home/docker/.cache/yay/chez-scheme-git/pkg/chez-scheme-git/usr/lib/csv9.5.1/ta6le/kernel.o': No such file or directory.

Upstream have tagged 9.5.2 and opened 9.5.3 for development. It also looks like the make install step puts kernel.o and scheme.h in place now, so here's a diff:

Newer builds work for me, too, so the issue was upstream or on my side. Anyway, thanks for testing.

I just built it, seems to build fine.

Upstreams last commit 68e20f7 seems to be a bad one. Can someone confirm?

Up to yesterday I had no problem building this.

Ah, this is building nicely for me now. :)

The initial full clone is expected, don't worry about --depth=1. I suspect anyone using a -git package should be accepting of the 900MB on-disk overhead compared to downloading ~25MB each build (or they'd just use the non-git package). Also, https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/34677 .

In a clean chroot it worked for me without -fPIC. Strange, a simple makepkg in a empty builddir needs -fPIC.

But namcap in the clean chroot is not satisfied.
