Arch Linux User Repository

Thank you @meanjollies, it is working now.

$> pacman -Ql htslib | grep -P 'hts.+a$'
htslib /usr/lib/libhts.a

@magno can you try again? By default, makepkg will clean up any static libs. I've enabled the option to keep it here, so you should be good to go now.

Hi Andrew,

I tried to install htslib-git but got this error about the htscodecs submodule...

Motivation for installing htslib-git is to check whether the newest version provides the static library libhts.a required by SHAPEIT4, please see https://github.com/odelaneau/shapeit4/issues/74.

configure: error: htscodecs submodule files not present.

HTSlib uses some functions from the htscodecs project, which is normally
included as a submodule.  Try running:

  git submodule update --init --recursive

in  the top-level htslib directory to update it, and then re-run configure.

No worries - I got it.

Hi, I can maintain it. I maintain htslib/samtools elsewhere on an HPC and I use Arch locally so I have an interest in having this be available. Cheers...

I no longer have time to maintain this package and am disowning it.

Hey @viralstitch, would you be able to update this to 1.13?

Thanks for the comment. I've pushed a pkgrel update with the new checksums. They changed at some point today. These files worked for me this morning.

Package also fails to build for me. This worked:

sha256sums=('cffadd9baa6fce27b8fe0b01a462b489f06a5433dfe92121f667f40f632538d7')

The sha256sum is incorrect.
