Thanks Bevan, that worked!

Thanks jdunn for the notice. I just pushed an update which fixes the build. I did not increase pkgver or pkgrel as there should be no change in the resulting package. Could you please give it another try?

I was unable to build this just now. The error:

==> Starting build()...
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:1 (cmake_minimum_required):
  Compatibility with CMake < 3.5 has been removed from CMake.

  Update the VERSION argument <min> value.  Or, use the <min>...<max> syntax
  to tell CMake that the project requires at least <min> but has been updated
  to work with policies introduced by <max> or earlier.

  Or, add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to try configuring anyway.

I just pulled a8f70f8 and makepkg completed successfully. Thank you Bevan for getting this fixed and your bit of cleanup work on the PKGBUILD.

Bevan commented on 2024-03-20 22:34 (UTC)

The build error is caused by LTO. I'll push an updated PKGBUILD in a couple of minutes which should fix it.

I won't bump the pkgrel because people who have 2.2.0-5 installed right now will have built it without LTO anyway.

Thanks salcedo for your quick response. This all seems reasonable to me.

I will reach out to Jordan (KN4CRD) and see if we can't at least get a patch release that will compile. I suspect writing a patch on my own would be a bit of a steep learning curve on my end. I also see now that there is an AppImage available which would probably serve my own needs in just trying out the mode with my equipment.

Thank you

Upstream has had no activity since June 2020.

As I personally do not have the bandwidth, nor do I believe it is package maintainers' responsibility to implement forward compatibility in stagnant upstream projects, I'm orphaning this AUR repo now so that someone may:

  • Attempt to contact the author, KN4CRD, and inquire if there will be any future development or modernization of JS8Call.
  • Attempt to patch JS8Call and take over maintaining this AUR package.

This might be a upstream problem, but I wanted to report I am unable to build. I get the following error.

Thanks for the heads up. The application now builds with Hamlib 4.4

arch's hamlib updated to 4.4 today.
