I went ahead and added aarch64 as an architecture to the PKGBUILD.

Please be aware that polybar is not maintained on aarch64 and there is no official support for it (even if it will probably run fine). We do our best to get it to compile on ARM and do accept patches for that, but for any ARM-related runtime issues we cannot provide proper support because we don't have access to aarch64 machines.

Latest revision isn't working, I get the following when trying to run it:

polybar: error while loading shared libraries: libjsoncpp.so.20: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is this an issue with your package or upstream?

Thanks.

I had the same issue as @clpwn due to pyenv. Fixed by running "pyenv global system" before building.

Builds fine without i3-wm installed.

@patrick96 fixed it.

For the record, my problem was that I had a virtualenv plugin in my shell that was throwing a non-system python binary earlier in my PATH.

Anyone else having this issue: type python3. Make sure your system python is the one you're using when building.

@clpwn xcbgen detection works fine for me. Do you use Anaconda for python? If so, there is a known issue with xcbgen detection: https://github.com/jaagr/polybar/wiki/Known-Issues#missing-required-python-module-xcbgen-with-anaconda

Otherwise you may be experiencing the same issue as in https://github.com/jaagr/polybar/issues/1496. The OP has yet to provide us with the results of our troubleshooting instructions. If anaconda is indeed not the problem, we would appreciate it if you could go over to the linked issue and help with troubleshooting.

Even with reinstalling xcb-proto, I get this error while building. Just me?

it was a problem with xcbgen, like in this closed issue https://github.com/jaagr/polybar/issues/502

I resolved it by reinstalling xcb-proto package. Thanks for the help!

@nathias That error shouldn't affect the build. What error is actually printed in the terminal, when the build fails?

nathias commented on 2018-08-01 16:53 (UTC)

@patrick96 sorry, I assumed there was a recurring issue. The error is pthread_create exist failed... my error log is here: https://gist.github.com/nath1as/f3a0b68c8168b7537dee5ffc20949fd3

@nathias, I just tested this, there are no build errors on my machine. You'll need to be a little more specific.
