I have disabled translations because they have been the cause of build failures in both this package and grub-git. If you want to re-enable them, check the PKGBUILD.

Also, make sure you have installed base-devel.

Argon2 might not work on some devices due to issues with the memory allocator

@happyrogue Did you run grub-install for grub-git? if not, then you are probably still using the efi file from this package. Adding argon to the main branch would be a good idea, I hope it really happened.

As a heads up, I'd like to point out commit 6052fc2cf684dffa507a9d81f9f8b4cbe170e6b61 to GRUB master: "disk/luks2: Add Argon2 support"

Just installed grub-git and my setup2 still boots. Hopefully this package can be retired in the near future.

@rodolfoser what makes you think GRUB includes argon2 support? https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?55093 is still open. it seems a new libgcrypt was included in master branch, but this alone is not enough as far as i know.

rodolfoser commented on 2025-10-09 15:21 (UTC)

Is this package still required. As of now latest GRUB includes new LUKS2 with argon2 support.

@AndeanPuppy If you need help, you'll need to provide more information than merely "Ends up with makepkg aborting".

I presume you're using an AUR helper, which doesn't seem to work, at least for me. In general, whenever a package doesn't build using an AUR helper, try building it manually before asking for help. And when asking for help, describe precisely what you've done that led up to the error. Also, the forum might be a better place to get help.

Try cloning the package to your computer, then build it manually. This worked for me.

 Hunk #1 FAILED at 503.

Ends up with makepkg aborting. Please help?

@Random13 thank you, it works

It seems that argon_3.patch fails because there is a new docs section about libgcrypt, can be resolved with the following:

diff --git a/argon_3.patch b/argon_3.patch

Hi, when trying to build new version of the package I’m getting the following error:

patching file docs/grub-dev.texi Hunk #1 FAILED at 503. 1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file docs/grub-dev.texi.rej

seems grub version updated and need to update patch, have any ideas how to fix it?
