This can still be useful on newer kernels, since it unlocks intel's proprietary image processing stack which currently has better image quality than the open source libcamera stack.

Updated PKGBUILD:

pkgbase=ipu6-camera-bin
pkgname="intel-ipu6-camera-bin"
provides=(intel-ipu6ep-camera-bin)
replaces=(intel-ipu6ep-camera-bin)
_pkgname=ipu6-camera-bins
pkgver=r92.30e8766
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Intel IPU6 camera binaries"
arch=('x86_64')
url="https://github.com/intel/$_pkgname"
license=('unknown')
depends=('glibc')
makedepends=('git')
source=("git+${url}.git")
sha256sums=('SKIP')


pkgver() {
    cd $_pkgname
    printf "r%s.%s" "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)"
}

package() {
    install -dm755 "$pkgdir/usr/include" "$pkgdir/usr/lib/pkgconfig"
    for lib in "$_pkgname/lib/lib"*.so.*; do
        cp "$lib" "$pkgdir/usr/lib"
        libbase="${lib##*/}"
        ln -sr "$pkgdir/usr/lib/${libbase}" "$pkgdir/usr/lib/${libbase%.*}"
    done
    cp "$_pkgname/lib/lib"*.a "$pkgdir/usr/lib/"
    cp -rT "$_pkgname/include" "$pkgdir/usr/include"
    cp -rT "$_pkgname/lib/pkgconfig" "$pkgdir/usr/lib/pkgconfig"
}

This package is obsolete!

Linux kernel 6.10 onwards now has built-in IPU6 drivers and this package will no longer work! Uninstall it from your system if it is still installed.

@twouters this is actually an issue with -camera-hal-git packages, update your intel-ipu6ep-camera-hal-git

I got the following error from v4l2-relayd:

Worked around this by creating an ld.so.conf file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/intel-ipu6-camera-bin-adl.conf:

/usr/lib/ipu_adl

Just like acegallagher, I'm not sure how to properly handle this for the different variants in the PKGBUILD.

Latest update now replaces -ipu6ep variant with common ipu6 package, providing both package names to preserve -camera-hal-git deps

Which seems to imply that this package needs to know what version you require. I've changed the following hacky line for my alder lake pc for copying libs from the upstream directory:

cp -rT "$_pkgname/lib/ipu_adl" "$pkgdir/usr/lib"

I'm not sure what the most clever way to reformat the PKGBUILD would be.

it looks like the upstream structure changed and the binaries are no longer in separate directories as of https://github.com/intel/ipu6-camera-bins/tree/ce52d3df8dde0a38ed60773169dca344806d7c51

Can you also make packages for jasperlake please!
