Arch Linux User Repository

There might be a better fix than this, but this fixed the SDK link and the linker errors

Just built the current head and works just fine for me out of the box.

hello, package is still broken

@HurricanePootis submitted a PR that has been merged to the xar repo, this compile error is now fixed. But I have a new one further down the installation :

/usr/bin/ld: otool-arm_disasm.o:(.bss+0x8): multiple definition of `dis_info'; otool-i386_disasm.o:(.bss+0x0): first defined here
/usr/bin/ld: otool-arm64_disasm.o:(.bss+0x0): multiple definition of `dis_info'; otool-i386_disasm.o:(.bss+0x0): first defined here
/usr/bin/ld: otool-print_bitcode.o: in function `print_bitcode_section':
print_bitcode.c:(.text+0x4b6): warning: the use of `mktemp' is dangerous, better use `mkstemp' or `mkdtemp'

I am getting the following error

lib/ext2.c:117:2: error: call to undeclared library function 'free' with type 'void (void *)'; ISO C99 and later do not support implicit function declarations [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
        free(vstr);

@Daniel071 3 years late... But no, it does not. apple-darwin-osxcross installs specifically commit 16efae8 (at the time of writing). This version installs the latest available commit in the git repo, hence the -git suffix in the package name.

Also, doesn't this package serve the same purpose as apple-darwin-osxcross?
