Unfortunately this doesn't currently build on modern Arch Linux due to https://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/issues/868
I spent a little bit of time looking at it, but the complexity of it was outside the amount of C++ I'm willing to do when I'm not getting paid for it.
Just rebuilt it and I get: /usr/bin/fluxengine-gui (interpreter => /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2) libboost_regex.so.1.91.0 => /usr/lib/libboost_regex.so.1.91.0
Hey, after update fluxengine-gui still wants older version of libboost (current is 1.91.0)
fluxengine-gui: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_regex.so.1.90.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
https://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/issues/829
To fetch submodules in the 'dep' directory I had to add in prepare():
git submodule init
git submodule update
VorpalWay, Yes... the package is building fine here now. I just did a rebuild and it installed successfully. Thank you for maintaining the project. cheers
Sorry, I didn't see your message @ve7it, but I believe it should all be working currently?
Update: This seems to be related to an upstream issue which should be fixed but doesnt seem to be.
see https://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/issues/804
and https://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/pull/811
Success....
I can confirm that the 3 changes in pull 811 will let the package build correctly. see:
https://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/pull/811/commits/b836c2ec4ab6e1f7d77b387448c631a6fe70d816
greetings all,
My C++ foo is sorely lacking and I would appreciate if someone would look at the build problem I have run into. I am running an up to date arch install on Linux Z77 6.15.6-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu, 10 Jul 2025 17:10:18 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[lg@Z77 fluxengine-git]$ makepkg -ef ==> Making package: fluxengine-git r2841.5293e1c1-1 (Mon 14 Jul 2025 10:45:31 AM)
things progress smoothly until [47/400] CXX lib/decoders/+decoders/lib/decoders/fluxdecoder.cc there are many pages of warnings but the two errors below seem to point to an issue in lib/config/proto.cc

@andreas_baumann Sorry, I don't get notifications from AUR via email apparently, so I didn't see your comment.
I have fixed the package recently. make install is entirely gone upstream nowdays, so I manually install the required files.
I added a workaround for https://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/issues/750 (make install), for me it also doesn't work if doing it just with makepkg without a chroot.

The protobuf bug mentioned below is fixed apparently.
