Installers beware! This package is a fiasco and the upstream Git repository basically has bunch of binary blobs in it that do strange things. I'm working on cleaning up the packaging some but the upstream behavior is egregious. Wash your /opt/depot_tools directory out with soap and bleach when done.

depot_tools is installed in /opt/depot_tools/. This directory is not in $PATH by default, so make sure to export PATH=/opt/depot_tools:$PATH before using it. Also, this directory has root permissions, so either use it as root, or if you want to use it as your currect user:

# groupadd depot_tools
# gpasswd -a $(whoami) depot_tools
# setfacl -m g:depot_tools:rwX /opt/depot_tools/

Then re-login as your current user or log your terminal in to the newly created group:

$ newgrp depot_tools

@caleb I don't see it as a conflict because depot-tools-git is not installed in $PATH, but rather in /opt/depot_tools/.

So no files would overwrite each other when both depot-tools-git and git-extras are installed.

Am I wrong?

alerque commented on 2020-10-02 11:05 (UTC)

This needs to mark a conflits=('git-extras') which also has an implementation of git-rename-branch.

Also it seems that many of the fixes/hacks are not needed:

cit, clang-format, clang_format_merge_driver, compile_single_file, download_from_google_storage, gn can all be run with python3
fetch, gclient and roll-dep even depend on python3 (through vpython3) now
git-runhooks calls gclient so it runs with python3
luci-auth does not exec python anymore
gclient.py does not import colorama anymore, instead there is a setup_color.py

hexchain commented on 2020-08-17 20:15 (UTC)

Is it possible to make vpython3 use system python3 too?

Doesn't seem to fully work when fetching WebRTC sources...

$ fetch --nohooks webrtc
mktemp: failed to create file via template ‘/opt/depot_tools/.cipd_client.XXXXXXX’: Permission denied
curl: (23) Failed writing body (0 != 1387)
/opt/depot_tools/bootstrap_python3: line 32: bootstrap-3.8.0.chromium.8_bin/python3/bin/python3: No such file or directory

/opt/depot_tools/vpython3: line 52: /opt/depot_tools/.cipd_bin/vpython3: No such file or directory

The /opt/depot_tools/ directory is owned by root. Maybe certain directories need updated permissions through PKGBUILD?

patch is needed as a dependency

Maybe a little off-topic but I had problems git. It failed with:

Cloning into bare repository '/home/istobic/.cache/yay/depot-tools-git/depot-tools-git'...

error: RPC failed; HTTP 408 curl 22 The requested URL returned error: 408
fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly

I found a workaround in this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=245633
