Upstream switched from autoconf to meson, but they have not made a release since 2022. This package is therefore broken until a new release is made that fixes the GetText and "too many arguments to function ‘ddata->yesfunc’" errors. In the mean time, I recommend switching to the gftp-git package, which should have switched to meson as well.

@twelveeighty Ah, thanks for the explanation. The -git package also seems to be broken with a different error. Left a comment there.

Getting this error when building. There's an open github issue regarding it. Building from source works instead.

- Running autoconf --force
configure.ac:10: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.

Thanks, guys! I commented at php-yaml as well!

Thanks @FabioLolix for the suggested fix.

socket-connect.c:399:31: error: passing argument 3 of 'accept' from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]

This is due to gcc14, need something like CFLAGS+=" -Wno-error=incompatible-pointer-types"

Similar issue in https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/php-yaml as well.

Hi, the package fails to build with:
