Compiling pakku-git with nim-git fails with

The same works fine with the stable nim.

Note that in order to properly upgrade to the new version scheme you'll need to use an epoch.

-d:useGnuReadline is also no longer supported by koch so I used -d:useLinenoise Also note that nim will check config files in /etc/nim/ now, otherwise nim will not know about the libraries in /usr/lib/nim https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/8653

This package no longer builds in a clean chroot:

FAILURE

This seems to be related to the following line:

./koch boot -d:release -d:nativeStacktrace -d:useGnuReadline

Utilizing two options that no longer seem supported by koch: https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/blob/devel/koch.nim#L46

EDIT: Removing -d:nativeStacktrace fixes the build.

The pkgver() function should be replaced with the following:

pkgver() {
  cd "$pkgname"
  git describe --long --tags           \
    | sed 's/\([^-]*-g\)/r\1/;s/-/./g' \
    | sed 's/v//'
}

Which (currently) yields: 0.18.0.r1001.g506418ef5

@ibrokemypie

You have to build nim-git with docs generation disabled first, then rebuild with docs after you've installed nim-git.

Currently failing to build with

Any update for nimsuggest being moved to the main repo? Also 'texlive-fontsextra' is a huge package could this dep be avoided?

shiva commented on 2017-02-28 06:35 (UTC)

Thanks for this! How do we get https://www.archlinux.org/packages/community/x86_64/nim/ replaced with your changes?

atweiden commented on 2017-01-24 06:35 (UTC)

thanks @hcorion, updated
