Arch Linux User Repository

@wsduvall yup, works great! thanks for replying so quickly!

@arslaanpathan Done! Let me know if it works for you.

Hey! Just tested this on ARM64/AArch64 (Asahi Arch Linux ARM, Apple M2) and it works perfectly with no issues, you just need to add 'aarch64' to the archs list in the PKGBUILD. I'd recommend you add this change so that other users don't have to tweak the PKGBUILD manually.

Suggested changes:
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
-> arch=('i686' 'x86_64' 'aarch64')

Yes, it builds well now.

Regards and thanks for maintanance!

@dreieck, give it a shot now, I also fixed some useless cat's.

Ahoj,

thanks!

Now another issue turned out:

==> Starting prepare()...
cat: ../../oui-0.20.txt: No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().

You should reference it as "${srcdir}/oui-${pkgver}.txt".

Actually, build now succeeds for me (with that fix).

@dreieck, when I updated it I pushed it to my old private repo instead of the AUR repo, sorry about that. That said, I think the oui.txt presents a fairly large reproducibility problem. I'm open to suggestions, maybe I'll look at what the NixOS flake does. If the license allows I could just include the generated oui.h file in the AUR repository.

Build now fails for me with

Regards!

But still downloads oui.txt in build() and not before ...

dreieck, thanks, I pushed a fix. I didn't bump the pkgrel version since the created package is identical.
