I think the issue is there is no original source anymore. I'm getting 404 on both repo and org addresses, and can't build this package anymore.

It appears Grulbel is providing nixos support for jstest-gtk. I'm not aware of the scope of changes but afaik nix is using a different packaging system. Looking at the fork's commits, I cannot see any code update other than packaging, so I think we can consider this is still fine to use the original source.

gitlab was recently abandonned? looks like code is updated on https://github.com/Grumbel/jstest-gtk, not sure if that's the same maintainer though

Builds and runs fine on M1 Asahi Linux (aarch64) :)

Hello. Thank you for taking the time to help. Really appreciate it.

So what I did is a complete uninstall followed by re-install and this time the build worked. I don't know if the cause is the presence of the old package in the system, but I think something happened that blocked me from upgrading. So the only solution was to uninstall. Maybe it's because of caching the location or something? Although that is weird because I cleaned all yay cache, so it could've been something with perhaps pacman! I need to learn more about this stuff I guess, but yeah I was failing with both yay and makepkg which is the reason why I was confused.

Yes it is, but probably I can enhance the source fetch specifying the branch to fetch. Let me try something and get back to you. -- EDIT I've been checking over internet and it's makepkg design to retrieve the full bare repo. I found some alternatives you could run on your own machine to handle it but this is not something I can do from the makepkg script. Please beware doing so may alter you build process for the other packages and may break them. Indeed, some other pages may require a specific tag from source, this previously linked solution will prevent it.

Hmmm, ok I might be a little unfamiliar here and I could be mistaken, but are you supposed to get a bare repository? It's even mentioned as such in your log output "Cloning into bare repository" and because it's cloning into a bare repository then the rest of the build steps are failing because they're expecting a working copy.

Does makepkg work after you delete and clean everything?

@taher I'm pretty surprised since the makepkg works fine on my end.

Latest commit broke this package as shown below. I checked and the reason is that the clone command is downloading a bare repository, not a working copy

Website is out of date, should be: "https://jstest-gtk.gitlab.io/" Description is also out of date, no longer depends upon GTK2. I recommend this as per the GitLab: "A Gtk+ based joystick test application"
