This package is currently broken. The upstream GitLab repository is not found.

Instead, evolvotron lives on at https://github.com/WickedSmoke/evolvotron/tags , with two versions 0.8.* being released this year.

Interestingly, there are two homepage URLs: http://www.bottlenose.net/share/evolvotron/index.htm and http://www.timday.com/share/evolvotron/index.htm

Update: I've sent a patch to the maintainer. We can delete this comment after the package gets updated.

evolvotron 0.7.1-5 - fixed a source file to correctly compile with g++ 11.

I updated the package with the patch that fixes the building, now Evolvotron can be installed again from AUR without any error.

@saverio - Should be ready for adoption now.

Best regards, ShadowKyogre

@ShadowKyogre Thanks for the info.

I could adopt this package in case you orphan it.

@saverio

Unfortunately, no. There's been several circumstances that happened that make it hard to maintain all the packages I normally attend to.

See

https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2019-August/035332.html

for more information.

Right now I'm going through the packages I own right now to see which ones I can disown or ask for co-maintainers to help lighten load.

...are you still maintaining this package, dear author????

It is just needed to apply this patch to the Evolvotron sources and rebuild the package: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=929034#41

For info, the full bug report and related discussion is reported here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=929034

@ShadowKyogre

There is a problem running Evolvotron: after installation, when you try to run it from console or DE Menu, a segmentation fault message appears on the console and the application doesn't start. I tried to uninstall and reinstall it again but the problem persists. Perhaps some library has changed, please can you check and let us know? Many thanks in advance.

(I also opened a forum post with further details: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=246149)

Dear ShadowKyogre (and other users of Evolvotron),

for information and reference, I just want to report here upstream links of this nice application, if you can please check and update the realtive AUR fields (e.g. in the AUR package upstream URL):

1) Upstream URL: http://www.bottlenose.net/share/evolvotron/

2) Upstream app files repository: https://sourceforge.net/projects/evolvotron/

Thanks for the attention and best regards.
