run modprobe nct6687 to load the module and then run sensors to get the outputs.

Does not build after Jun 15 commits.

Error! Build of nct6687.ko failed for: 6.15.2-arch1-1 (x86_64)

make.log says the same thing from the previous comment

Does this still build for you?

For me, make.log says this:

But nothing is compiled

Builds for me:

I'm guessing you probably need to upgrade: r104.0ee35ed -> r107.f45b72a

Will no longer build with latest kernel (6.11).

Anyone interested in adopting this orphan? I guess I'll step up if no one else does, but kernel modules aren't really my strong suit.

To get this package working apply this patch

@quark23, this error message comes from git. Removing temporary dir (/var/tmp/pamac-build-$USERNAME/nct6687d-dkms-git/) beforehand might help.

if I modify ::git: to ::git+https: then I get fatal: this operation must be run in a work tree
with the stock config it hangs at Cloning into bare repository
