Disclaimer.

There's an issue with meson build system. ninja test tends to fail on X11 desktop ( Wayland seems to work fine )

Until the problem gets resolved upstream please build with makepkg --nocheck or pass --nocheck to your AUR helper ( e.g. yay --mflags="--nocheck" )

If the issue persists I will have dropped the check() all together.

This recent change allows me to remove the vala package like alex-y had been able to before, so now this package is compilable for me again

Getting the same error as alex-y got starting a couple weeks ago, only this time I can't remove the vala package because it's since been listed as a make dependency.

I had the same issue as alex-y and removing vala fixed it.

alex-y commented on 2025-10-27 16:44 (UTC)

I removed vala package... and everything works!

Anything to understand?

bartus commented on 2025-10-17 09:57 (UTC)

@alex-y can't reproduce, perhaps bug was fixed upstream.

GIMP fails to build for all development packages. Tried other packages in AUR, all of them are failed at the exact same spot with the same error.
