@tleican I'm planning to move this package to [extra], and adopt+maintain it there, if you don't mind.

Looking forward to seeing this land in [extra]!

@xyproto Is that a real question or a "I'm taking over" notice? :)

(Edit: I mean, it's good to see gleam graduate to an official package, so do proceed!)

@tleican I'm planning to move this package to [extra], and adopt+maintain it there, if you don't mind.

Building the package with "pkgctl build" worked here.

@endercheif Hi! Try with the latest stable release of rust (1.80.0 right now). It should work for you.

If that helps, install the rustup package, then use rustup update stable to get the latest stable version of the rust compiler and build gleam.

Is is just me or does building the latest package provide a compiler error:

Hey @ephoz!

I am on amd64 (too) and this was the first time lto made difficulties building for me... all is fine now :)

Thanks again!

Hey @spookster,

Thanks for the feedback. I do release builds with LTO on (amd64) without issue. Are you on a different arch? I'll update the PKGBUILD to add !lto and save everyone else from the issue. :)

I'm not sure whether the gleam compiler benefits much from LTO. It does not make a change in the output binary size at least.

If that helps, I believe that you can set !lto globally by changing OPTIONS in /etc/makepkg.conf.

Heya, thanks for the pkg! I wasn't able to build this latest version. Got some error message with hidden symbol `GFp_ia32cap_P' isn't defined in it. Adding !lto to options fixed it for me.

the package should probably not install in /usr/local/bin - that's for the local administrator, or for non-packaged apps.
