Could you change the dependency from darknet-hankai-git to darknet-hankai (and add provides=(darknet-hankai) to darknet-hankai-git)?

I downloaded the PKGBUILD and modified it to add a patch that removes the -Werror from the compilation flags. Now it builds. Also I had to install vtk and hdf5 packages to fix linker issues during build, those should be made hard dependencies. Also I installed cuda and cudnn, but sadly I don't recall if I was having linker issues those two solved too.

The modified PKGBUILD excerpt:

source=("git+https://github.com/stephanecharette/DarkHelp.git"
        "remove_compiler_param.patch")
sha256sums=('SKIP' 'SKIP')

pkgver() {
  cd "$srcdir/DarkHelp"
  cat version.txt | cut -d '-' -f 1
}

prepare() {
  cd "$srcdir/DarkHelp"
  # Apply the patch
  patch -p1 < "$srcdir/remove_compiler_param.patch"
}

And the diff for file CM_definitions.cmake:

BTW, the other related package you maintain, darkmark-git, has the exact same problem.

This is failing to build with the following message:
