ncspot needs nightly features to build as of commit 1f2c85f (or v1.3.1).

Please change the pkgver() function to properly report how many revisions it has been after a git tag, according to the VCS Packaging Guidelines.

hi there, a small thing: you forgot git (makedepends) in recent commit.

HurricanePootis commented on 2024-11-11 23:11 (UTC)

Hello, this package could do with the following changes:

  1. Follow the Rust package guidelines. This means removing rust from makepends() setting the propper RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN variables, and changing the prepare() target. This is for users who use rustup instead of rust.
  2. Re-enable LTO. The ring issues can be mitigated by adding -ffat-lto-objects to CFLAGS. For example, CFLAGS+=' -ffat-lto-objects'.
  3. Re-enable covers. It was fixed upstream.
  4. Install the LICENSE file to /usr/share/licenses/ncspot-git instead of /usr/share/licenses/ncspot. This is not the ncspot package, it is the ncspot-git package.
  5. Add ueberzug and pkgconf to makedepends(), for the covers feature.
  6. Add glibc, gcc-libs, libxcb, dbus, ncurses, and hicolor-icon-theme to depends(). These are missing.

Here is a patch file:

Required adding options=(!lto) to build for me, due to: https://github.com/briansmith/ring/issues/1444

benbick commented on 2023-07-02 17:54 (UTC)

forgive my erroneous flag

gugylucky commented on 2022-11-05 12:08 (UTC)

@roberto-diaz it also works with the latest openssl, the package just need to be rebuilt

roberto-diaz commented on 2022-11-05 12:01 (UTC)

Needed to install core/openssl-1.1 to get it to work

eschool_romance commented on 2021-03-03 06:44 (UTC)

Can you add build instructions for cover drawing? It would make ueberzug an optional dependency.

novafacing commented on 2019-10-17 21:04 (UTC)

Need to add extra/llvm-libs as a dependency for the rust LLVM backend.
