Hi, thanks for maintaining. Several issues with the current PKGBUILD:

preview builds are supposed to also include every more stable version if those happen to be newer. For .NET, this means both stable and rc builds. This is because the point of a preview package is not to package every version that just happens to have -preview in its version, but to provide more frequent updates with newest features. It is inconvenient an incorrect to constantly switch between stable, rc, and preview whenever one of those happens to be the latest if you are just trying to get the latest product.

Following the above point, the pkgver is incorrect. You are incorrectly translating -preview. into +preview. when it should be just preview. With the current state of things, stable version would be seen as older than preview when the stable happens to be latest:

$ vercmp 1.0 2.0 # upgrade
-1
$ vercmp 2.0 1.0 # downgrade
1
$ vercmp 10.0.0.sdk100+preview.1 10.0.0.sdk100+rc.1 # upgrade (preview -> rc)
-1
$ vercmp 10.0.0.sdk100+rc.1 10.0.0.sdk100 # downgrade but should be upgrade (rc -> stable)
1

Instead, it should look like this:

$ vercmp 10.0.0.sdk100preview1 10.0.0.sdk100rc1 # upgrade
-1
$ vercmp 10.0.0.sdk100rc1 10.0.0.sdk100 # upgrade
-1

Fixing this would require changing the version scheme but also adding epoch=1.

The pkgbase is also incorrect. I know .NET is no longer called .NET Core by Microsoft, but it is by Arch. You can check every .NET package in both AUR and extra and they all follow the dotnet-core* naming scheme. Fixing this would require temporarily changing the current pkgnames to resolve the conflict (i.e. appending -donotinstall or anything else), uploading the package under a correct pkgbase, and submitting a merge request.

There are more minor issues, you can compare our versions if you are interested: https://gist.github.com/vitaliikuzhdin/452e2589fc5a24efc7b0c6d431b27e37

I have also uploaded an nvchecker config for you to be able to update the package (semi-)automatically. If you want, you can just add me as a co-maintainer and I will fix everything myself.

Hi. Thank you for maintaining this package. The symlink /usr/lib/libhostfxr.so created in line 49 is broken.

$ ls -al /usr/lib/libhostfxr.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 47 Nov  4 20:29 /usr/lib/libhostfxr.so -> /usr/share/dotnet/host/fxr/10.0.0/libhostfxr.so

ls: cannot access '/usr/share/dotnet/host/fxr/10.0.0/libhostfxr.so': No such file or directory

I am orphaning this package as I don't work with .NET anymore.

ShalokShalom commented on 2022-10-26 16:10 (UTC)

This is not called "Core" anymore. New name is (since .NET 5) just .NET.

@PowaBanga It should be fixed with the -2 package. Sorry for that.

something is wrong in all dotnet--preview-bin PKGBUILD. I added them in my custom repository, and to every pacman -Syu, it ask to to replace all dotnet--preview-bin by exactly the same package.

@FabioLolix: The package has been renamed, a merge request is pending in order to merge this package in the new one.

FabioLolix commented on 2021-10-12 16:41 (UTC)

Hello Florian, at the moment this is a -bin pkgbuild; not one build from source, you can both correct this and upload a dotnet-sdk-preview-bin

@morealaz I just added completion files for bash, fish and zsh.

@fisch02 That should be fixed too.
