This package often requires special care to build. If building this with makepkg fails it will be necessary to construct the package in a clean chroot. Using an AUR helper is not recommended; however, aurutils does provide the option to build in the clean chroot.

The process of building this package in a clean chroot is rendered exceptionally simple with the help of scripts in the devtools package and can be completed via the following steps. These summarize the information provided by the Arch Linux DeveloperWiki and assume familiarity with git or the process of downloading a snapshot from the AUR and extracting the archive. Please refer to this article for more information about the devtools scripts and building in the clean chroot: [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot]

Prerequisites: This process uses scripts in devtools to simplify the procedure: please install this package before beginning. The lib32-libmng package is required and must be built or downloaded from the Arch Linux Archive [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Linux_Archive]. QT 4 depends on this package and it is no longer found in the binary repositories.

  1. Clone the lib32-qt4 repository or extract the snapshot archive into a clean working directory.

  2. Enter the directory containing the package source. (PKGBUILD and patches.)

  3. Execute the following command, supplying the location of lib32-libmng: multilib-build -- -I /<somewhere>/lib32-libmng-2.0.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

  4. Execute pacman with the -U flag to install the resulting package: just as one would with any other local package. Note: lib32-libmng would need to be installed in a similar fashion if it isn't already present on your system.

The QT 4 build system is prone to some odd behaviour: especially if the qtwebkit package is installed. [https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=132416] [https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-20236]

If your build fails with the following [error: expected class-name before ‘{’ token] when compiling please build in a clean chroot.

If your build fails with error messages about skipping incompatible files and being unable to find a specific file in a compatible format, especially while linking, you will need to build in a clean container to avoid issues.

Building this package in a clean chroot or other form of container will prevent unexpected issues.

All build errors will be ignored unless the build was performed inside a clean, properly configured container. For more information about building in a clean chroot see this article: [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot]

Big thanks to int [at] arcor [dot] de for doing the legwork to track down the relevant issue reports and sending them my way.

The archlinuxgr repository contains a binary copy of this package courtesy of ranger.

@WoefulDerelict Please, let me know when you downloaded and I will delete this file allout.tar.gz

Sorry I could not upload logs to pasterbin. I put it here https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/932514/temp/allout.tar.gz

@ranger gave us the best solution for this issue. Thank you very much. You are great man! :-) @WoefulDerelict Unfortunately... I have not read this page before my third attemp to build this package (collection of resources). In the future I will try to look into AUR much earlier, to avoid simmilar issues. Sorry. :-)

ZeroBit: Preferably the entire output of makepkg hosted on a paste site. See the URLs in posts made by meepzh, plebian and billypilgrim.

ZeroBit commented on 2017-02-21 20:02 (UTC)

@WoefulDerelict Can you provide the list of command the output of which you are interested of?

WoefulDerelict commented on 2017-02-21 18:55 (UTC)

billypilgrim: The current most likely suspect is a race condition in QT4's build system. Have you tried building this in a clean chroot to eliminate the possibility this is the result of some unexpected interaction with some package installed on your system?

kabbalah commented on 2017-02-21 18:49 (UTC)

Thank you install skype and aur low one time the lib32-qt4 there was no longer need to compile

billypilgrim commented on 2017-02-21 18:49 (UTC)

I tried building it outside of /tmp but it failed. This time it was with the same error as I had the first time, which makes me think building in /tmp was a secondary reason why it fails. Log is here: http://ice9.ddns.net/build_notmp.out

ranger: That is understandable. Your input is appreciated. kabbalah: The error proper is further back in the build output and I'd wager it looks something like this: helpviewer_qwv.cpp:161:1: error: expected class-name before ‘{’ token
