Arch Linux User Repository

I got an error saying that LLVM.so was missing. I fixed it with pacman -S llvm-libs

yay it works again thanks for fixing it

Finally build fixed after several patches from the devs

I could not get around the yaml dependency issue, not even by installing python-yaml myself (in fact it was already installed). My guess is that the build process is messing around with python environments.

You can see that if I invoke the python console within the build() function in the PKGBUILD, I can import yaml like nothing. Yet the compilation fails:

I'm running into a related issue I think, or maybe I just overlooked the build failure.
[yay -Q mozillavpn
mozillavpn 2.26.0-1

but it does not launch.

Thanks guys! Confirmed and reported here: https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client/issues/10375

Build is broken due to incorrect signal emission in lottiestatus.cpp from Lottie integration.

Error: LottieStatus::changed() now requires 5 arguments, but moc_lottiestatus.cpp emits it with none. Upstream likely updated the function signature without updating QML or emit logic.

Fails at: [ 33%] Building CXX object lottie/CMakeFiles/lottie.dir/lottie_autogen/mocs_compilation.cpp.o

Confirmed on fully updated Arch with Qt 6.7 and GCC 13.2.1.

Happy to help with logs or testing if a patch is in the works. Let me know what you need.

I'm running into an issue when building the package. Has anyone run into failing the build when building target "lottie_autogen", object "lottie/CMakeFiles/lottie.dir/lottie_autogen/mocs_compilation.cpp.o"?

I haven't run into this before when building the AUR package for Mozilla VPN.

@Xavier

Yeah, this was a straight paru -Syu run inside KDE’s terminal, Python is installed globally.

I’ll double-check if the module path was off or if a local venv interfered, but that was the build context. I’ll dig deeper and circle back if I find anything interesting.
