perfect. thx.

Alfred456654, simona: somehow missed your comments, sorry, pushed an update which includes a patch for this error.

same like me

I can't build anymore...

Just run your build command (e.g. ninja) and Meson will regenerate as necessary.
If ninja fails, run "ninja reconfigure" or "meson setup --reconfigure"
to force Meson to regenerate.

If build failures persist, run "meson setup --wipe" to rebuild from scratch
using the same options as passed when configuring the build.
To change option values, run "meson configure" instead.

    Aborting...
:: Unable to build powder-toy - makepkg exited with code: 4

I have uploaded the beta version 96.0.346 to powder-toy-beta and snapshots are, as usual, in powder-toy-snapshot.

@dmitmel It appears this package may have been abandoned. It was flagged out of date over 3 months ago and still haven't been updated. You should request to orphan it so you can adopt it and become the new maintainer.

Hi! I've rewritten the PKGBUILD. This is what I've done:

1. Removed obsolete code
   • NATIVE_OPTIMIZATIONS - SConscrpit works fine if -march=native is present in /etc/makepkg.conf
   • scons options --save-version, --minor-version, --build-number - they're already included in the upstream src/Config.h
2. Added a variable ($_lua) to choose the Lua version.
3. Used as much metafiles from upstream as possible
   • .desktop files were extracted from the installation routine (Client::DoInstallation() in src/client/Client.cpp), although had to be modified a bit so I moved them in the AUR package directory
   • different sizes of application icons are now installed from the upstream
   • also I extract document icons from the .icns file at build time and install them as well
   • misc files like MIME data files and AppStream appdata are installed too
4. Added a wrapper script which runs Powder Toy inside a data directory located at $XDG_DATA_HOME/powder-toy
5. Rewritten the code according to the modern ArchWiki recommendations

Here is the patch:

Hello, please rename the tarball so it doesn't cause conflicts for common source directories. Thank you.
