Compiles fine in a clean, up to date chroot for me, with latets meson which is 1.4.0-4.

Failing using a clean chroot yourself, maybe try with a fresh clone of this AUR repo, or clear cache of your AUR helper if you use one?

Building fails due to issues with meson. Downgrading meson to 1.3.0-1 worked for me.

I had to comment out to ignore the systemd service unit file like in the patch below:

 polkit_policy = 'net.reactivated.fprint.device.policy'
 polkit_policy_target = i18n.merge_file(

to avoid the error message (conflicting with open-fprintd.service) below:

@j.r I confirm that the latest version builds successfully for me too, without the dependency on pod2man.

Sorry for the false alarm, not sure what happened.

KJWRHRO commented on 2021-10-31 23:58 (UTC)

I have confirmed I cloud build the package! Now open-fprintd is working fine!

j.r commented on 2021-10-31 20:36 (UTC)

@TomaszHerman @KJWRHRO I patched the bug, this package now builds with latest meson

TomaszHerman commented on 2021-10-30 10:59 (UTC) (edited on 2021-10-30 11:04 (UTC) by TomaszHerman)

@KJWRHRO There is some issue in recent meson version: https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/9441. Downgrading meson to 0.59.2-1 fixes the issue with build.

KJWRHRO commented on 2021-10-28 06:44 (UTC)

I can't build this package. What should I do?

fprintd-clients/data/meson.build:25:0: ERROR: Function does not take positional arguments.

@stanm builds for me in a clean chroot without pod2man
