Arch Linux User Repository

Dear mainteners, I hope I am not disturbing you, but I meet a difficulty to upgrade mozillavpn from 2.14 to 2.15. Below is the message when it crashes.

github.com/mozilla-mobile/mozilla-vpn-client/src/platforms/linux/netfilter

[ 2%] Built target netfilter_builder

How could I know if one option in the command causes trouble ?

Best regards

@PolarianDev well done thanks for stepping up.

@PolarianDev and @yochananmarqos, we don't have to get so complicated, we can build it very easily and simply using the prepared source tar that includes all the submodules and glean preprocess. I maintained this package with that build version and it always worked great, we had to change the way to build this due to an issue for a specific version in the glean process but it is fixed now. I tested it for the latest version and it is working perfectly and it doesn't need this extra AUR package and the submodules: https://pastebin.com/HaThEwyS

@PolarianDev: See my PKGBUILDs:

• python-diskcache
• python-glean_parser
• mozillavpn

Yes this package is indeed broken, it contains two dependencies from the aur both of which appears to be out of date...

This will not be an easy fix, but I will still attempt it maybe tomorrow evening when I have more time.

Yeah I have realised, I also realised git is missing from makedepends, which breaks building in a clean chroot.

I do not believe github tar.gz's include submodules, so for this project is better to stick to git, I did not realise it had submodules :)

currently mid-build in chroot (with git installed manually) lets see if it at least builds :)

@PolarianDev: There are git submodules, that's why it's using git. However, if the submodules are already included in the tarball, then that works, too.

Hello world,

I have now adopted this package. I assume it was orphaned due to issues with the PKGBUILD? I am not too sure.

Besides I would rather it fetch the source as a tarball than git, because git adds a lot of overhead, and slows down builds when the repository history is not needed.

I will first try building this in a clean chroot, and see if its even functional.

Let me know if you have any issues.

I have a WIP PKGBUILD and it builds successfully in a chroot, however it crash dumps running it. I'm not sure why yet.

@yochananmarqos I was able to build it fine, not in a chroot, but what are your issues with it? you could also provide the patches
