Source url has changed, use https://gdlp01.c-wss.com/gds/4/0100010264/01/linux-UFRII-drv-v370-uken-07.tar.gz
Keep in mind that this package is meant as a last resort for people that can't get their printer to work with https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cnrdrvcups-lb
That's caused by a change in gcc10, see https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-10/porting_to.html .
Sounds like you choose the best solution for that issue, could you upload your changes as patch files somewhere ?
I did not find cndrvcups-lb to be in a building state--some symbols were multiply defined in cgnplp. Specifically, load.h defines some function pointers; that file is then included in mainwnd.c and load.c. Objects from both translation units are then linked into the cgnplp executable, which causes the function pointers to be multiply defined. I fixed it by declaring them external in load.h and defining them in load.c.

please switch to https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/cnrdrvcups-lb
The PKGBUILD for v5 is almost ready. Canon changed many things, and everything is now in one package. The code is also pure 64-bit now and has no need for multilib anymore.
Severach and I have been in touch and we both agree that a name change is needed.
Soon I'll upload a NEW cnrdrvcups-lb package, and add Severach as co-maintainer.
It will conflict with cndrvcups-lb & cndrvcups-common-lb, but not replace them. Tests by Severach has shown cups printers using the old version will HAVE to be deleted and remade for the new driver.
I am making progress, but the changes made by canon are rather big.
Currently I have everything upto build() functional, next is the package() function. Once the package builds the new version, I intend to upload it as cnrdrvrcups-lb and ask for help with testing.
This weekend I have little time, next week is better.
I tried downloading the .tar.gz from the Canon website and compiling it using the old PKGBUILD (after renaming everything to cnRdrvcups..., changing the version to 5.00 and the file names in patch files respectively), cnrdrvcups-common-lb first, but was getting either logpipe: unbound variable or _builddir: unbound variable. Looking forward to seeing the updated PKGBUILD and updated package because I have not printed anything in a year, which is funny because I am the most advanced Linux user in our department, and I can’t print a thing.
canon appears to have changed from cndrv to cnrdrv and the internal structure of the tarball has also changed.
A quick peek suggests the *-spec files common and lb have been combined into one file that builds both.
Anonymo is correct,
Flagging this and cndrvcups-common-lb as out-of-date.
