Please use git rev-parse --short HEAD instead of git log -1 --format='%h' in pkgver. I have log.showSignature enabled in my git config, and it prevents this packing from being built.

I'm having problems while building:

CheckSymbolExists.c:(.text.startup+0x3): Warning: undefined Reference to »pthread_mutex_timedlock«

Anybody knows a fix?

The file has FREERDP_VERSION_SUFFIX, which you ignore completely.

However... If the developers want a version string starting with 2.0 (for beta, rc, final or whatever) they should just tag it. This is a git package, so we use git tag.

I am taking it from the source's version numbering. I fail to see how the developers versioning is wrong, as it is their code.

This already uses master. The tag is used to generate the version string.

What you do is wrong... The version number you generate suggests we are post 2.0 release.

I've updated the PKGBUILD a bit: https://github.com/WarheadsSE/PKGs/commit/1522c78b8454ae2f0701c77f8c1399a6d839888b

* Update to use master, not the out-of-date tag.
* Collect accurate version from CMakeLists.txt

Could you please add the following to the PKGBUILD:

It will allow using h264 channel (especially on Windows 10) with FreeRDP and makes remote desktop experience much better. Also 'openh264' is already available on AUR.
