Please don't flag this package out-of-date just because the version number displayed on AUR seems old. This is normal for VCS packages. As long as building the package works without problems, it isn't necessary to update the PKGBUILD here. makepkg will automatically retrieve the latest version when you build the package locally.

"I believe PKGBUILD has support for cloning a subset of a git repo."

It does not.

andykais commented on 2022-11-03 22:17 (UTC)

I have noticed then when I install this package, it clones the whole neovim repo and all its history, rather than the HEAD of a specific branch. I think this could be a nice quality of life change, which should significantly improve the download speed when installing this package.

I believe PKGBUILD has support for cloning a subset of a git repo. The simplest of which is probably just running a custom git command like git clone git@github.com:neovim/neovim.git --single-branch --branch master. Some quick googling shows me that there is no support for pull requests in the AUR, but I could try putting together a patch if that is helpful to the maintainer.

We get it, no need to submit the same orphan request and post the same patch dozens of times (@pjvds @just1602 not even the correct patch, by the way). Remember that Arch is run by volunteers and spamming will not get things moving faster. Posting errors here is also silly if you have not built in a clean environment.

Instead, what you can do is edit the PKGBUILD on your own system to update the deps and makedeps (this is a VCS package after all, you do not need to wait for it to be updated on aurweb, because editing it once will work for the future unless the build process changes), and always build in a clean chroot.

Edit: I've adopted the package and corrected the deps.

If you are trying to use the below fixes and they are not working because it still detects it as libvterm 0.1.4 then do this.

Go into src/build

remove CMakeCache.txt

try the fixes again

For those that modified the PKGBUILD and still get errors about libvterm, remember to also delete the build folder inside src (relative to the PKGBUILD location).

@ndom91, I'm not an expert at all with Arch packages, but maybe try only with the PKGBUILD modfication, because on my machine it works, and I update neovim every day with this package.

EDIT : I think I had this error while fixing the package, and I simply had to clean the build files before building the package again.

EDIT2 : I just checkout the code from https://aur.archlinux.org/neovim-git.git and only edit the PKGBUILD file to check if it works, and it did. I only change the dependency name, it's makepkg that change the pkgver in the diff.

EDIT3: I just try to do the same thing on my laptop and I had to manually uninstall libvterm-0.1, then install libvterm and the build want well. There's probably a way to handle that in the PKGBUILD, but I don't know how to do so.

I tried @just1602's .SRCINFO and PKGBUILD modifications, i.e. primarily changing the depends from libvterm-0.1 to libvterm package, but compilation still failed with it complaining about only finding libvterm v0.1.4 when trying to run makepkg -si in the directory 🤔

Error while building

CMake Error at cmake/LibFindMacros.cmake:263 (message):
  REQUIRED PACKAGE NOT FOUND

  LIBVTERM 0.1.4 was found but version 0.3 is the minimum requirement.  This
  package is REQUIRED and you need to install it or adjust CMake
  configuration in order to continue building nvim.

  Relevant CMake configuration variables:

    LIBVTERM_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/include
    LIBVTERM_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/libvterm.so

  You may use CMake GUI, cmake -D or ccmake to modify the values.  Delete
  CMakeCache.txt to discard all values and force full re-detection if
  necessary.

I can also verify that this package fails to build now, can we get the patches by @just1602 implemented?
