TrialInError,

I believe I've made an error in my decision to upgrade this package.

himitsu 0.4 requires a recent hare toolchain from the hare, harec, and qbe master branches. However, hare(AUR)'s latest release is too old, and a new release cannot be made, since hare(AUR) depends on harec(AUR), which depends on qbe(AUR), which does not have a recent release.

https://c9x.me/git/qbe.git

himitsu 0.4 theoretically should build with hare-git(AUR).

Perhaps I should have waited for a new release from qbe, harec, and hare. I'm not sure what the correct protocol is from here.

With what hare version did you compile this? If I try to build 0.4 I get the following error:

/tmp/makepkg/himitsu/src/himitsu-0.4/secstore/secstore.ha:71:29: error: Unknown object 'os::BUFSZ'
71 |        let wbuf: [os::BUFSZ]u8 = [0...];

71 |        let wbuf: [os::BUFSZ]u8 = [0...];
Error: harec: exited with status 1
hare build: build failed

(slightly mangled and incomplete output, because something went wrong with the escape sequences and the build process printed over the complete terminal window)

Hi, this no longer compiles on the latest hare, strio seems to have been renamed:

hare build -o himitsud cmd/himitsud/
Error resolving strio: Module not found
make: *** [Makefile:18: himitsud] Error 255

Hi. himitsu's latest release 0.3 does not compile with the latest hare, but himitsu's master branch does. Unlike himitsu-git(aur)1, this package only publishes upstream releases. You'll have to wait until himitsu publishes a new release.

For future onlookers,

Re whynothugo:

As mentioned on IRC, the dependency 'hare' is only x86_64, so it would be improper to add a new architecture here until 'hare' is changed.

Re lapinot:

The 0.3 update should solve the problem. Hare does not yet have versions, so we just have to updatean d catch up when we can.

I'm getting an error in hiq/main.ha:

Error [...]/himitsu/src/himitsu-0.2/cmd/hiq/main.ha:91:43: Argument type io::handle is not assignable to parameter type io::file

Apparently it's because of hare commit 635eeda5 and is fixed in himitsu commit fc9cf5c0.

Perhaps we could add the commit as a patch? Or maybe synchronize with the hare package maintainer? (i'm not sure how they pick the hare version to package since there is no official release yet..)

Here's a patch for that last comment:

Can you add arch=(x86_64 aarch64)? I've testing building and running on ARM and works fine.

Re: TrialnError

The himitsud.service file is now added as a source. Thank you for explaining.

Hi. The unit file needs to be added to the source line, else it won't be copied over to the $srcdir and the install call will fail.

Edit: More explanation. For one everything should be placed in source which shall be installed and some people (as me) will use a dedicated BUILDDIR, where ../himitsud.service won't be available.
