Arch Linux User Repository

There's now a custom repo and binaries again. Though only for x86_64 currently.

Custom Repo

[pacman-static]
SigLevel = Required
Server = https://pkgbuild.com/~morganamilo/$repo/$arch

Pre compiled binaries

https://pkgbuild.com/~morganamilo/pacman-static/x86_64/bin/

here's a small patch to move source patching to a separate prepare() function, this way one can use --noextract with makepkg to resume a partial build ( I've had to do this a few times since it takes a while to build the whole thing )

@Morganamilo: PKGBUILD, please? Did you update any dependencies?

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404
==> ERROR: Failure while downloading https://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.13.tar.gz

Should probably be replaced with https://www.zlib.net/fossils/zlib-1.2.13.tar.gz.

I added the _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE define. I cannot reproduce the ARFLAGS issues in libassuan though.

As of 2023-05 you now need to specify ar flags too, here's the patch I'm using to build:

commit 8d66b546d4ed08a5250bd2964ee2883982e148ec
Author: Arglebargle <arglebargle@arglebargle.dev>
Date:   Mon May 29 21:13:14 2023 -0700

    patched to build as of 2023-05-21

I need the following patch to build (aarch64). gpgme complains about undefined ino64_t and off64_t.

Same as gpgme: Fix with with largefile support

Also see Q: Do I need to define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE to get 64bit off_t?

This would be from xz (maybe it didn't unpack properly):

src/xz-5.2.7/src/liblzma/lzma/lzma_common.h

I cannot reproduce this.

It errors out with:

configure: error: cannot find sources (src/liblzma/common/common.h) in . or ..

In the pinned comments, the version offered in the link to pre-compiled binaries is old.

hotfixed -latomic for ARMv7 (and possibly ARMv6) (openssl was appending -latomic to pkgconfigs which fail with gcc-musl and -static).
