@B.MuXBeats Glad it worked for you! Thanks for reporting back!

Failure located:

It turns out the error actually has nothing to do with the goldendict-ng package after all! I stumbled upon something by chance: Spectacle hadn't been working for me for a while and would immediately throw an error message upon startup.

Using Google's AI search, I discovered that the issue was caused by a faulty installation of ffmpeg-obs. I reinstalled ffmpeg-obs, and lo and behold: Spectacle is working again.

After that, I decided to try installing goldendict-ng once more. And — miraculously — the package installed without any errors, and goldendict-ng is running perfectly again.

It's limited to 5000 characters per comment. Unfortunately I'm not able to post this here. Until 190/191] Linking CXX executable goldendict it works fine. The error follows afterwards...

@B.MuXBeats It seems to build fine for me.

I ran your error message through a translator but it doesn't seem particularly informative. I'm not sure if it's an upstream problem perhaps? You can try posting there?

Version 26.8.0-1 fails during installation process. Here is an excerpt from the log, starting from the point where something goes wrong:

[190/191] Linking CXX executable goldendict FAILED: [code=1] goldendict

This package is out-of-date. I have a new PKGBUILD ready to push, as soon as the AUR is up again.

Rhinoceros commented on 2026-05-06 01:18 (UTC)

Thanks @Henry-ZHR. PKGBUILD updated

USE_SYSTEM_FMT dropped in https://github.com/xiaoyifang/goldendict-ng/pull/2747 and USE_SYSTEM_TOML dropped in https://github.com/xiaoyifang/goldendict-ng/commit/8f3210fa90a5fb65c1a78f59af027931cf77cc98. Both should prefer system lib by default now.
