ArchLinux Pi-hole is not officially supported by Pi-hole project. In case of bugs and malfunctions please DO NOT file a report upstream.

First of all check if the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pi-hole) can help then ask here for assistance and tips.
When it will be excluded that the problem does not depend on ArchLinux we will file a bug upstream.

@max.bra Happy to help. Looks like -fcommon did the trick without a patch to the source itself.

@setboolean thanks for reporting: -Werror is not a first time problem, but linking error on multiple declarations it's not really that good...

So trying to compile any version >5.2 throws a lot of error during the build process aka fails miserably. But first things first, picture the *ihavenoideawhatiamdoing meme. Now that we are on the same page let the fun begin.

  1. [warning: __builtin_strncpy ... -Wstringop-truncation] in src/dnsmasq_interface.c. Those are only warnings but will bring the build process to a halt because some genius thought it would be a good idea to set -Werror in src/CMakeLists.txt :(

Fix: Replace -Werror with -Wno-error in src/CMakeLists.txt. This tells the build process to go f* himself if it encounters any warnings.

Bonus Fix: One could also replace all instances of strncpy with strlcpy in src/dnsmasq_interface.c and get rid of the warning itself. Does it create other problems further down the road? I have no idea but it compiles without errors.

  1. [/usr/bin/ld: CMakeFiles/FTL.dir/datastructure.c.o: ... multiple definition of `querytypes';] Apparently there exist multiple definitions of querytypes in src/datastructure.h and src/datastructure.c which makes no sense to me because I never wrote a line of "real" code in my life. Anyway according to some docs it is a big no no to declare something multiple times in different code files, bummer. But apparently you can mark a definition as external and then ... magically all is well. And that's exactly what we gonna do.

Fix: Replace const char *querytypes[TYPE_MAX]; with extern const char *querytypes[TYPE_MAX]; in src/datastructure.h. So querytypes will only be declared in datastructure.c and datastructure.h will use it from there. Thats at least how I understand it.

Disclaimer: This was a fun endeavour, but seriously I have no idea what i'am doing. Errors are gone and it compiles. Next step is putting together a package for testing.

@deemon - My install works as expected/no errors in the web UI. I do see a message that is similar on pihole -c:

But pihole status is normal:

% pihole status
  [✓] DNS service is running
  [✓] Pi-hole blocking is Enabled

Guessing it is something simple.

For some reason pihole -c does say:

   Blocked: FTL offline

Thanks @max.bra for the swift help - both suggestions work.

max.bra commented on 2020-11-01 17:14 (UTC)

hi BertVoegele, yes it need about 800MB for a successful compilation. cross-compile is sure the best way for speed too, but a little swap file should do the trick.

BertVoegele commented on 2020-11-01 16:09 (UTC)

Doesn't build on RaspberryPi Model 1B (512MB) & gcc 10.2 - it seems to die on an OOM at compiling src/database/sqlite3.c, with both processes (cc & as) using approx. 470 MB at the end. While trying different CC flags in makepkg.conf, I found them to be ignored in that build process. Is that pkg even intended to be built natively on that HW, or is cross-compile the way to go here?

Many Thanks for you swift guidance @Max.

@Prakkie glad you solved.
Don't understand why you can't switch css to the dark one...
