@0ion9 Wait a moment, can you paste your fish-git's PKGBUILD to pastebin for me?

Our output is different:

==> Starting check()...
cmake --build build
make[1]: Entering directory '/build/fish-git/src/fish-shell/build'

0ion9 commented on 2025-05-31 06:36 (UTC)

I don't think that's it. Checking makepkg.conf shows that ccache is already turned OFF (BUILDENV=(!distcc color !ccache check !sign)), and I already ran ccache -C to clear ccache's cache (to predictably no effect on build)

Thanks for your help, but I'm out of ideas.. I mean I can try ENABLING ccache instead, but that's really at the point of 'just throw things at the wall and see what happens'...

@0ion9 ccache is not enabled in fish-git's PKGBUILD, but it will be enabled if you enable it in makepkg.conf.

I suggest you try disabling ccache temporarily in makepkg.conf, and if it works, try clearing its cache.

0ion9 commented on 2025-05-31 02:39 (UTC)

Thanks for that tip. As I implied, I had already cleared the cache (erased everything other than fish.install and PKGBUILD) I had not set any makepkg-related environment variables, including BUILDDIR. Pretty confident I've never tried to configure makepkg in any way.

I am trying to build now with BUILDDIR=/tmp/makepkg, starting by copying (fish.install, PKGBUILD) to another temp dir, /tmp/fb. I hope this will force everything to be freshly fetched (in a way that is somehow more extreme than wiping all known downloaded files...?)

.. This still does not work.. The only other idea I have is to also clear ccache's cache (but I don't even know if ccache is actually being used in the build process here)

@0ion9 Try to find the CMakeCache.txt file in makepkg.conf -> BUILDDIR and delete it. If the makepkg.conf -> BUILDDIR is not set, find it in the directory where the PKGBUILD is located.

@0ion9 I have tested it in makepkg and extra-x86_64-build and it works fine. Please check your cache or environment variables.

For a few months now I haven't been able to build this. To be precise, 'build' succeeds but 'check' fails:

==> Starting check()...
cd build; cmake .. -G "Ninja" \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="/usr/local" -DCMAKE_EXPORT_COMPILE_COMMANDS=1
CMake Error: Error: generator : Ninja
Does not match the generator used previously: Unix Makefiles
Either remove the CMakeCache.txt file and CMakeFiles directory or choose a different binary directory.
make: *** [GNUmakefile:46: build/build.ninja] Error 1

This doesn't appear to be due to stale files, as removing 'fish-shell','.git','pkg' and 'src' directories from the directory PKGBUILD is in, then rebuilding, has no impact on it. It occurs both with plain makepkg and with the yay wrapper.

@xuiqzy

Yes, there is no nroff package on Arch, and another alternative mandoc conflicts with man-db.

But just follow the PKGBUILD from the official repository is fine, thanks.

New optional dependencies in fish 4, see fish package from the repos: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/fish/-/commit/dccb3c6c7ac101e000399d5c6fae945ba600c4c6 Not sure how to handle the nroff dependency, since no package seems to provide this, but for example groff provides a binary called nroff; not sure if that is the correct one.

SanskritFritz commented on 2025-02-27 21:20 (UTC)

Disowning this, because I didn't follow the riir process and now 4.0 is ready.
