I'm getting the same error as Skalli84

@brannonking this package doesn't compile anything, it just ships libraries and headers that other software can compile with. It is when you try to compile something that depends on CUDA with an unsupported compiler that you can run into issues.

This package doesn't need the gcc14 dependency. At least mine compiled without it just fine. Let's drop that (nontrivial) dependency.

I too was confused by the call to install opencl-nvidia-590, so I cancelled out and installed the opencl-nvidia-580xx manually. I was doubly confused by that since I already had nvidia-580xx-dkms installed and the opencl-nvidia-580xx also seemed to unpack the nvidia binary driver. Dunno why I needed both of those (and maybe I didn't).

@tmoore multiple packages from AUR provide opencl-nvidia, such as opencl-nvidia-580xx, as well packages for older versions, so it is up to the user to choose the driver version they want. Even if it makes little sense to use it like that, it should still work with 590 from the official repositories as well.

FYI. Don't know how this will impact this package using the opencl-nvidia 590 libraries, since 580.119 is the last one supporting pascal, but yours has a dependency on 590

opencl-nvidia-590.48.01-1

Build fails for me. I'm on a 1080TI and cuda 13.0 is not working properly anymore, so I wanted to switch to 12.9.

I've replaced the username with user in the output. Before that the nvidia xterm ("NVIDIA CUDA PACKAGE") pops up saying "Unknown option: --target"

  # Define compilers for CUDA to use.
  # This allows us to use older versions of GCC if we have to.
  ln -s /usr/bin/gcc "${pkgdir}/opt/cuda/bin/gcc"
  ln -s /usr/bin/g++ "${pkgdir}/opt/cuda/bin/g++"

Since this depends on gcc14, would these two lines need to link to /usr/bin/gcc-14 and /usr/bin/g++-14 respectively? (Default gcc is gcc-15 currently)

@3j14 Fixed, for information this package is based on the "cuda-12.5" AUR package so you may want to report there as well.

Thanks for providing the package!

Can you by any chance list all files required as sources instead of using the bash * glob? Depending on your locale, the sorting order of nppi.pc vs nppial.pc is different, resulting in failed checksums as the order of the files changes. You can see the effect if you compare the output of the following commands:

# 'correct' sorting (matching the sorting of the SHA512 sums)
ls *.pc | LC_COLLATE=en_US.utf8 sort
# 'Default' sorting. Here, the order is slightly changed:
ls *.pc | LC_COLLATE=C sort

When using makechrootpkg (see devtools package), the default locale is set to "C" (see https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/devtools/-/blob/master/src/mkarchroot.in#L98), resulting in a different sorting when using the glob.
