@trumee: it might be worth checking and/or reporting that upstream (https://github.com/trapexit/mergerfs#mergerfs-or-libfuse-crashing).

I was getting "Transport endpoint not connected" with kernel linux-lts-5.4.83-1 and mergerfs-2.32.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz.

Reverting back to 5.4.77-1-lts and mergerfs-2.31.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz resolved the issue for me.

@Sparticuz:

My point was that it is not necessary to extend "arch" in order to build on ARM.

Even ArchLinuxARM themselves don't do it for their own repository packages. Not even for modified PKGBUILD files specific for ARM (https://github.com/archlinuxarm/PKGBUILDs).

@willemw I think what @cryzed is saying is that it builds just fine on arm, so adding arm would allow the package to be built on arm. In fact, looking at debians package, they have a bunch of different Arch's. https://packages.debian.org/stretch/utils/mergerfs ... Unless I'm missing something?

@cryzed:

"any" will create a ...-any.pkg.tar.zst package file, which you can install on any platform. Used for installing script files, which are portable.

"x86_64" will create a ...-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst package file, which you can only install on a x86_64 platform. Used for compiled packages, which are only binary compatible with a specific platform.

@cryzed:

I prefer not to extent the "arch" array. Most packages, that are compiled, don't do that (otherwise it would mean updating a lot of PKGBUILD files).

You can use "makepkg --ignorearch" (indirectly through an AUR helper) to build packages on other platforms. ArchLinuxARM even used to mention this in their Wiki.

Extending the "arch" array is, for example, useful for *-bin packages.

@willemw thanks, but what about extending the arch array?

willemw commented on 2020-03-24 20:22 (UTC)

@cryzed: Thanks. Added fuse2.

You should define fuse2 as an optional dependency, it's needed to get mergerfs to work with /etc/fstab. Also I tested this successfully on a Raspberry Pi 4, the architecture armv7h can be added to the arch array.
