BREAKING CHANGE: This package now builds shared objects:

/usr/lib/libfolly.so
/usr/lib/libfolly_test_util.so
/usr/lib/libfollybenchmark.so

instead of the static libraries:

/usr/lib/libfolly.a
/usr/lib/libfolly_exception_counter.a
/usr/lib/libfolly_exception_tracer.a
/usr/lib/libfolly_exception_tracer_base.a
/usr/lib/libfolly_test_util.a
/usr/lib/libfollybenchmark.a

Downstream packages must move folly from the makedepends to depends array to stay functional.

We are doing this change since dynamic rather than static linking between packages is more in line with Arch Linux packaging practices (or just Linux packaging practices in general).

@envolution - yeah. saw that when I attempted a makepkg on it. Boost was just updated, btw.

envolution commented on 2025-10-22 20:28 (UTC)

@jghodd yes sorry, am currently working on these releases. Some upstream Boost changes have made it a little tricky

Should we be expecting a 2025.10.20 release of mvfst?


:: installing fizz (2025.10.20.00-1) breaks dependency 'fizz=2025.10.13.00' required by mvfst
:: installing folly (2025.10.20.00-3) breaks dependency 'folly=2025.10.13.00' required by mvfst

@envolution I can confirm it is fixed now. Thanks very much!

envolution commented on 2025-07-24 19:28 (UTC)

@Winterreise i've fixed those pyside2 packages as I maintain those - can you try update and install this package once more?

Winterreise commented on 2025-07-23 07:19 (UTC)

@envolution: Thanks for indication a way to find the problem. Yes I do find two broken name by your script:

Broken package (no name): /usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/shiboken2.egg-info
Broken package (no name): /usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/PySide2.egg-info

envolution commented on 2025-07-23 07:08 (UTC)

@Winterreise this one is difficult to troubleshoot as I suspect you have some broken python metadata in site-packages. Have you had trouble installing other aur python packages using setuptools?

You can try find the offending packages with the following python snippet

#!/usr/bin/env python3
import importlib.metadata
for dist in importlib.metadata.distributions():
    name = dist.metadata.get('Name')
    if name is None:
        print(f"Broken package (no name): {dist._path}")

Fail to build folly, but I can't find anything in the search engine to solve this problem:

/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/setuptools/__init__.py:92: _DeprecatedInstaller: setuptools.installer and fetch_build_eggs are deprecated.

@jghodd thanks, I've dropped the CXX flags as they seem to no longer be necessary

jghodd commented on 2025-07-11 03:37 (UTC)

@envolution - seems that dropping the following compiler flag does the trick:


-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-mpopcnt -mbmi -mbmi2 -ltbb"
