It fails to build because of a incompatible-pointer-types compilation error, and then it fails due to a missing -lpng flag.

I think it needs sed -i 's/python-config/python2-config/' configure in prepare(), otherwise the configure script sets python3.12 headers instead of python2's. I tested that change and it build in a clean chroot.

Yes, use dia-git.

Are there a way to install dia without python2?

@Nathan67 Don't flag non-VCS packages as OOD, they will simply be unflagged. If you want the version without python2 then use dia-git. T̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶u̶i̶l̶d̶ ̶e̶r̶r̶o̶r̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶a̶g̶a̶i̶n̶ ̶b̶e̶c̶a̶u̶s̶e̶ ̶y̶o̶u̶ ̶u̶s̶e̶d̶ ̶a̶ ̶b̶r̶o̶k̶e̶n̶ ̶p̶a̶c̶k̶a̶g̶e̶,̶ ̶s̶e̶e̶ ̶p̶i̶n̶n̶e̶d̶ ̶c̶o̶m̶m̶e̶n̶t̶.̶

EDIT: Actually it looks like python2-bin has been fixed, dia now builds in a clean chroot with it. So idk what is wrong on your system.

As @susurri mentioned, please update the PKGBUILD, replace --with-python with --without-python to solves the build issue.

configuring --without-python solves the build issue. python2 has reached EOL for years and python support should be dropped until the upstream moves to python3.

Wikipedia might give an ancient release date, but there's definitely current development going on in the official git repo: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/dia/-/tree/master

The warnings are mostly just the same warnings about deprecated preprocessor symbols such as G_FUNC_INLINE and G_CONST_RETURN. Still builds successfully.

The program / package could not be built. Dia seems not to be maintained anymore. Wikipedia dates Dia 0.97.3 to September 2014. Rarely I have seen so many warnings in program compilation, and finally an error brought the mess of compilation to an end.
