Arch Linux User Repository

Hi guys,

I found this documentation on kernel.org which points to a different repo:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/utils/mmc/mmc-utils.git

I'm thinking this might be why the tree we knew moved to mmc-utils-old

I'll probably end up changing the source to that newer repo after testing for a bit, because the new tree seems more active.

UPDATE: The new tree builds fine for me. Also, make is part of the group base-devel, which is an implied make dependency of any AUR package.

with sparse

==> Starting build()...

make: *** [Makefile:38: mmc.o] Error 1

I believe sparse is missing from makedepends, the build is failing here:

sparse -Wall -Werror -Wuninitialized -Wundef -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -DVERSION=\""123fd8"\" 3rdparty/hmac_sha/sha2.c
/bin/sh: line 1: sparse: command not found
(...)

I get the same error reported by @paulhart.

I tried running make directly and got a successful build.

Came across https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/makepkg#Makepkg_fails,_but_make_succeeds and set the !buildflags option, which enabled me to successfully build the package

    cd "${_pkgname}"

This means that one/some of the following flags from my /etc/makepkg.conf caused the build failure

#CPPFLAGS=""

@Teeed I'll look into it thanks

Hi,

tried to build this package from 3c6b96c1b06f, but it failed on packing step

I'm getting a compile failure (it would appear the VERSION value in the Makefile isn't being passed to the compiler?):

To get rid of the "is not a clone of" error, delete the pkg, src and mmc-utils folders inside the folder where makepkg runs. For example, paru has these folders under ~/.cache/paru/clone/${pkgname}.

Thanks for updating!

Yeah I searched in the wiki also and you're right so I've added it.

adding epoc is a matter of versioning, not related to develop tree etc.

So r88.a1b233c is a superior version to a1b233c (it is correctly seen as an update) However if someone builded this package with the resulting pkgver starting with a number, they will never be notified about updates if you are not adding epoc
