ok, found a 2 line working patch on the current PKGBUILD, probably need to upstream to the original authors:

diff --git a/PKGBUILD b/PKGBUILD

export LDFLAGS=-lomp ; makepkg

works

Still the same problem with patched version.

In src/ekho-7.7.1/config.log :

configure:13448: g++ -o conftest -g -O2   conftest.cpp -lestools -lncurses
           -leststring -lestbase -lespeak -lsndfile -lpthread  >&5

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/10.1.0/../../../../lib/libestools.so: undefined reference toGOMP_barrier'

omp_get_thread_num is both defined in: * /usr/include/c++/10.1.0/parallel/compiletime_settings.h * /usr/include/omp.h

So instead of the patch, I put export LDFLAGS=-lomp juste before make in the build() function. The configure ans compilation corks, but it still fails at link time because of missing libomp functions. the LDFLAGS seems to not be take in account at the link time.

I was annoyed that ekho was not building anymore, so I found some time today to fix it. I'm not sure what changed to require these changes, but the following made it build for me:

• PKGBUILD (diff)
• configure.ac.diff

@Huulivoide: Does the package still build for you without these changes? If not, could you please apply them?

I'm getting a build failure:

checking for main in -lsndfile... yes
checking for main in -lespeak... yes
checking for main in -lpulse... yes
checking for main in -lncurses... yes
checking for main in -lestools... no

==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().

@Vitrum-cnkj34kr8 libestools should be provided by the festival package.

Fails on prepare():

Here is a PKGBUILD to update to 7.7.1 https://github.com/archlinuxcn/repo/blob/2178488ec5f26aa9872fa8ecddd195804e20e703/archlinuxcn/ekho/PKGBUILD

I'm not using ekho anymore, so I'm disowning it so someone else can jump in.

please update to 7.7.1 thanks

It seems it is. The upstream website says ekho can use either espeak or festival, but I can't find a way to disable espeak so it seems it's required even if you use festival for synthesis. I had espeak installed due to other reasons so I didn't notice.

I'll add the dependency.
