<s>btw PR#3938 is already merged upstream, so there is no need for applying the patch inside pkgbuild</s>

ignore my comment, i just noticed that whilst merge date (Jun19) is smaller than release date (Jun21), it's not included to the release

@TheGreatAndyChow --nocheck is the way to go when this happens.

The main reason tests are included is to ensure nuitka works out of the box on Arch, since upstream has promised first-class support for Arch.

If you could report this upstream, that would be great!

So I ran cd ~/.cache/trizen/sources/nuitka makepkg -si --nocheck and that worked (I use trizen as AUR installer, the main point is the "--nocheck" switch)

@simona I'm able to build it without errors in a clean chroot.

@Dominiquini This has been failing to build due to various reasons for the past several versions.

Current failure is reported upstream.

Current failure is our patchelf is too new: FATAL: Error, patchelf version 0.18.0 is a known buggy release and cannot be used. Please upgrade or downgrade it.
