@h4n1 somehow I missed that, thanks!

Fixed in my repo.

Package will not build:

==> Starting package()...
install: cannot stat 'mepo.md': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().
    Aborting...

Changing mepo.md to doc.md in the PKGBUILD fixes it.

I have successfully built the current 1.3.3 release with some changes.

The updated PKGBUILD is available at https://git.kaparis.name/AUR/mepo.

The package does not build for me currently:

Current zig 0.13.0-1 is installed as a dependency, I can't seem to find a 0.11 zig version in repositories or aur.

Big changes, https://git.sr.ht/~mil/mepo/refs says:

Codebase Updated to Build Against Zig 0.13.0

I also tested the PKGBUILD "mepo-git" https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mepo-git and it currently fails.

@hamblinggreen

Maybe you want to adopt that "mepo-git" PKGBUILD ?

Its maintainer seems absent:

 Registration date:  2020-04-25 (UTC)

It would be nice if both maintainers of "mepo" and "mepo-git" would cooperate and share work. For consistency, to avoid reduplicating efforts, and have more eyeballs following this project.

hamblingreen commented on 2023-09-01 05:20 (UTC)

thanks everyone for confirming that mepo does indeed compile against the Zig 0.11.0 version in the main arch repos. i'm also curious as to why some languages tend to lag behind in packaging on the main arch repos, but i'm glad everything is working now :)

let me know if you encounter any other issues

m040601 commented on 2023-09-01 01:54 (UTC)

Can also confirm it is compiling and working now again

QuietApe commented on 2023-08-29 20:55 (UTC)

Thanks for the info, Zig has been updated to 0.11.0 in the main arch repos, compilation runs now without trouble :)

I'm also failing to install the latest version with the error,

To anyone who might be knowlageble in these "zig things"

....Zig 0.11.0, which is not available in the main arch repos for the time being.

I'm somehow curious about this. Why are some languages so more "troublesome" than others, with regards to packaging for Arch ?

Why is this "zig" Arch official package always "late" ? Is it because it is difficult to maintain/build or package ? Does it mess/interfere with other things in Arch ? Is the language "zig" itself that makes things not so easy to compile and package things ? It reminds me of Pandoc and Haskell. Always a big beast to compile. At least compared to Go which makes it easy peasy to compile and package Go programs for Arch.

QuietApe: the latest mepo version is based on Zig 0.11.0, which is not available in the main arch repos for the time being. currently the workaround is to install zig-bin from the AUR, which is up to date. this will be fixed when Zig 0.11.0 is available in the main arch repos. The zig-bin package doesn't however satisfy the dependency check if it were to say zig>=0.11.0, so the dependency in the PKGBUILD still just says zig. i tried building on 0.10.1 and got the same error you did, so i assume this is the issue.
