the build issue has been solved. Switching off the link time optimisation did the trick (see [SOLVED] Linker error when building via makepkg for details).

@beatsgo & @lm41 thanks for your messages on this package; I experience the same issue as @beatsgo, the package doesn't build but I caninvoke it manually. I will work to solve it, please be a bit more patient. Thanks

  • For whatever reason, manually building it works allowing anyone to continue after this process.

Thank you for your checking and verifying the non-conflicting nature of this lib package with the cava application. Cheers.

@MarsSeed Even though the package can build the standard cava app this libcava package doesn't build and install that; that is deliberate to avoid the conflict with the cava package

Thanks for the hint, I removed libcava from the provides array :)

+1: Please remove 'libcava' from provides: a package should not (double) declare its own name in its provides. :)

Does this conflict with cava? I suspect it does (haven't checked yet). Because the fork's readme says this also provides the cava application executable.

In case my suspicion turns out to be true, then this package should have 'cava' in provides & conflicts arrays.

Could you please kindly check to verify or refute this? Thanks in advance!
