looks good, now compiles in clean chroot, thank you!

Hey, me again. I pushed another change with just a dependency on python-pkg_resources. I wasn't happy with the size of the setuptools package, so... My OCD forced me to make the installation leaner.

Hey @arcanis, thanks for the spot. I had it installed because something I have in my system depends on it transitively. Ended up just pulling python-setuptools as a whole, could be nanopb requires more than just pkg_resources.

We could look at making it leaner, but since it's a build time dependency, I'm not too worried.

I guess, python-pkg_resources should be a make dependency

hey @My1,

I've since fixed the URL. I also patched ffmpegdecoder.c, a function has been removed from libavdecoder.

the build fails due to an alleged 404

https://git.sr.ht/thestr4ng3r/chiaki/refs/download/v2.2.0/chiaki-v2.2.0-src.tar.gz

correct seems to be

https://git.sr.ht/~thestr4ng3r/chiaki/refs/download/v2.2.0/chiaki-v2.2.0-src.tar.gz (with tilde)

although the system has an anti scraping thing there, so not sure if a package manager could even download from there if it had the right URL

@boobiexgizmo I've since fixed the archive source. I also had to patch nanopb and munit due to more modern system libraries this package depends on (resp. protobuf and gcc.) You might want to give chiaki-ng a look!

@swsnr With chiaki being such a relatively small package that doesn't get updates that often, would requiring ninja for building make sense? Perhaps it would be the case that the majority of users already have ninja installed in some way, or is required to build some other package they've installed, but seems a bit overkill, no?

I'd love to know if more users would be interested in requiring ninja at build time. I just personally think the benefit is marginal.

swsnr commented on 2023-09-16 17:38 (UTC)

@rgcv Would you mind to use ninja for building? For me, it builds much faster than make.
