@polygamma It's not about debugging “my” system, I see this issue with the latest nx packages on 4 different machines, 2 x86_64 and 2 aarch64.

Never had this problem with previous nx builds.

Never have this kind of problem with pamac and any other AUR package (and I have dozens of them...)

So I beg to differ and consider this a problem with this precise package, not all my 4 different machines showing the same behaviour with the same package.

(And precisely, the matter is that pacman and pamac both report the installed package is 3.5.99.27-1 even though I see 3.5.99.27-2 being compiled and properly installed. So I bet 3.5.99.27-2 installation wrongly identifies itself as 3.5.99.27-1)

@petaramesh I can see that it is annoying, but it doesn't look like the problem you're having has anything to do with this AUR package. However, this is not the right place for debugging your system. You may want to run e.g. pacman -Qi nx-x11 (or whatever package you have installed) to see whether or not you actually have 3.5.99.27-2 installed. It's probably pamac doing weird stuff, because it always does. For me, neither aurman nor paru show this kind of behavior.

Hello, for some reason, after successul compilation and installation of 3.5.99.27-2, the systems still thinks 3.5.99.27-1 is installed so pamac permanently proposes the update to 3.5.99.27-2 and recompiles and reinstalls everyday when applying system updates. That's annoying.

Hmm, it seems the nx build system is not prepared for parallel builds. I had to remove MAKEFLAGS="-j$(nproc)" (it gives -j20) to ensure that the nx-X11/exports/include/nx-X11/Xprotostr.h -> ../../../include/Xprotostr.h symlink is created before it is used by the compiler. You might consider contacting upstream or exporting MAKEFLAGS=-j1 in the PKGBUILD.

@lahwaacz - I can't reproduce your failure, and it also successfully builds in Chaotic AUR, see e. g. https://pkgs.org/download/nx-x11

Building the version 3.5.99.27 failed for me:

ddxBeep.c:32:10: fatal error: nx-X11/X.h: No such file or directory

For the new 3.5.99.27 version the patch currently included needs to be removed.

In the PKGBUILD in prepare():

# binutils 2.36 buildfix 
patch -Np1 -i ../0001-nx-libs-ar.patch

Otherwise we get:

==> Starting prepare()...

Reversed (or previously applied) patch detected!  Skipping patch.

Build fails if system language is not english. Affected localization: Russian

petaramesh commented on 2022-10-17 13:16 (UTC)

Hi,

Please add 'aarch64' in the supported architectures in PKGBUILD, as it compiles and runs fine there.

Thanks in advance.
