Arch Linux User Repository

This package is deprecated in favor of aur/flutter which now contains all required artifacts on its own. This PKGBUILD will be kept as is in order to ensure seamless builds of old Flutter version in future.

@Kppqju77 Creating the folder /usr/lib/flutter/packages/flutter_tools/gradle/.kotlin and chowning it to my user worked just fine.

I failed to install aur/flutter-devel using aur/yay because there are conflicting install files with aur/flutter-tool package, mostly under /usr/lib/flutter/packages/flutter_tools/templates dir:

flutter-devel: /usr/lib/flutter/packages/flutter_tools/templates/xcode/ios/custom_application_bundle/Runner.xcworkspace.tmpl/xcshareddata/WorkspaceSettings.xcsettings already exists in filesystem

EDIT: not sure if exactly came from that package, so I deleted /usr/lib/flutter/packages/flutter_tools/templates and could proceed with the installation without issues.

@Kppqju77 I agree. So far, I already have the gradle-user-home.patch present. In past Flutter releases, setting

project.buildDir = file(project.gradle.gradleUserHomeDir.path + "/flutter/build")

as in the patch was sufficient. Sadly this no longer works with Flutter 3.29.0. I'm sadly a bit clueless. I'm open for patches and suggestions.

You can either submit patches here as diff or visually via https://gitlab.com/flutter-archlinux/tool .

@logion this is a problem with gradle configuration (you shoud have an error report in android/build/reports/problems saying that /usr/lib/flutter/packages/flutter_tools/gradle is not writable, after chowning this repository to you user when you run flutter you should be able to go further than this error. IMO we need to define a writable "projectDirectory" inside the gradle config instead of fiddling with /usr/lib rights. I will test some more later.

After upgrading from flutter 3.27.3 to 3.29.0-3, I can't build the default app that's created via flutter create for Android anymore (nor my own app). Any ideas? Abbreviated error is below, full output is here: Full error here: https://gist.github.com/fvdnabee/d6414d52ea867d20b58762b68a5b0918

@orzogc Please build 3.29.0-2 - I admit, 3.29.0-1 had this issue.

When building flutter 3.29.0-1, I encountered these errors:

This package is the one the craziest things from the AUR I tried to install. From the pinned comments, this is because of how flutter is required to be installed and how the AUR helpers work, etc.

I'm going to try manual installation instead of this.

Why do the following packages conflicts with themself:

• flutter
• flutter-gradle

If anyone sees the error,

Unhandled exception:
PathNotFoundException: Cannot open file, path = '/usr/lib/flutter/version' (OS Error: No such file or directory, errno = 2)

I was able to fix this with unset FLUTTER_ROOT. I previously set it to work with some other tools. Hope this helps someone.
