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.

Hi,

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

so here is a patch to make it work:

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

It shouldn't need an epoch since the new tree is basically some commits ahead of the old tree, right? They seem to have the same git history up until the point where the old one was essentially "retired". That said, you do have to clone fresh...

The pkgver though it's true, it needs to be standardized, I'll update

EDIT: I'll update epoch as well anyway, since the version scheme changed.

Hello, the pkgver currently used is sub-optimal, this pkgbuild need epoc=1 and printf "r%s.%s" "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)" as pkgver since there aren't git tags and git commits hash are not sequential https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#Git
