No graphical sudo frontend is available. Please install 'pkexec', 'kdesu' (KDE) or 'gksu' (Gnome). Alternatively, you can enter 'sudo miktex-console --admin' in a terminal window.

I'm having the same problem someone else had before.

I'm using KDE and kdesu is installed. 

sudo miktex-console --admin
[sudo] password for jolitp:
sudo: miktex-console: command not found

Anyone has any idea on how to fix it?

Got biber: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypt.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory, fixed by installing core/libxcrypt-compat

@Sven I come across build errors when >j2. Could you give it a try?

Sven commented on 2022-07-28 19:09 (UTC)

Please don't hardcode -j2 in PKGBUILD. There's MAKEFLAGS in /etc/makepkg.conf. Also, I have 12 cores and 24 threads. My CPU is bored.

Looks like current binaries are using the wrong versions of icu and log4cxx.

miktex-console: error while loading shared libraries: liblog4cxx.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
miktex-console: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.70: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
# and so on

Use miktex-git to link the correct libraries, until newer binaries are released.

UPDATED:

I still need to build log4cxx 12, here's my PKGBUILD.

kdesu is installed but still getting the following error:

No graphical sudo frontend is available. Please install 'pkexec', 'kdesu' (KDE) or 'gksu' (Gnome). 
Alternatively, you can enter 'sudo miktex-console --admin --finish-setup' in a terminal window.

The 'fop' package is not needed to build on Linux, only on Windows

Some of you had got the hint already from github, if heavysink not, here you are: https://github.com/MiKTeX/miktex/issues/917#issuecomment-1024964884

Sadly I'm not very lucky with the install in /opt and all the strange setup finish in Windows style. Before I may dig deeper, if it could be fixed, can I ask how well it works for you? (Yes, here is the wrong place for that...sorry)

@heavysink You should split the build step in prepare and build functions. The prepare function configures CMake and the build function is just

build() {
    cmake --build "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/build" --
}

Note : use cmake commands instead of make because 'Unix Makefiles' is not the only generator.

@CanadianEngineer Following https://github.com/MiKTeX/miktex/issues/917, it seems that the upstream dev do not want to fix that since Arch is "not supported" :-(. So I added options=('!buildflags') and it works now. The fix will be pushed by the buildbot lilac before tomorrow morning EST.
