I got this error at first build: CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message): Could NOT find PkgConfig (missing: PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE) After installing pkgconf package, I could successfully build goldendict. Thanks a lot!

Yes, installing base-devel fixed it. Thanks @slbtty !

It says you don't have patch command when building libeb. Install base-devel should fix the problem.

I get an error when building: [code]Starting prepare()... -> [patch] Applying libeb-4.4.3-14-010_debian.patch... /var/tmp/pamac-build-shmuel/libeb/PKGBUILD: line 27: patch: command not found ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().[/code]

But in practice it only use one thread. When I changed it to

cmake --build build_dir --parallel 8

it builds faster a lot.

slbtty commented on 2023-07-31 09:45 (UTC)

--parallel is unnecessary because Ninja defaults to run commands in parallel.

jronald commented on 2023-07-31 09:19 (UTC)

Could it boost build performance as below?

In PKGBUILD, change

cmake --build build_dir

to

cmake --build build_dir --parallel

or

cmake --build build_dir --parallel <jobs>

I plan to switch to CMake soon. It is thoroughly tested, but in case of any trouble, I have uploaded a stable package without -git https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/goldendict-ng, which still uses qmake

I checked a few of the ones that have r0 as their revision, and it looks like most of these were just published with the commit that has a tag on it. And if I would clone them, then pkgver that they return will be greater than r0. In these cases, I think they use the number of commits since the last versioned tag.

I think the way you did it should probably work well.

As for the need for it, in my case, I use aurutils and it utilizes pkgver. I think it could be necessary for some setups. It adds all the packages to a local repository that then can be used by multiple devices and in this case, for pacman to know that the version of a package is newer the pkgver of that package should be incremented.

Anyway, thanks for the work that you are doing!

And does it make it a bad way to calculate pkgver?

Yes, you are right. Some tags were deleted, and it is not reliable.

I changed it to the number of commits.

TBH, I don't think this matters much for -git packages. For yay, the --devel flag appears to check the git hash instead of comparing the pkgver.

Every package is doing it differently. Some just set it to r0 and never change it. Not sure what's the best practice 😅.
