@sashank: cython-git currently builds 3.1.4, which is perfectly fine for building python-av. You need to rebuild VCS packages from time to time to keep them up-to-date

You can use aur vercmp-devel to identify -git-packages that need to be rebuilt

Hey @peippo, when I use cython-git, I run into this following error:

ERROR Missing dependencies:
        cython<4,>=3.1.0
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
 -> error making: python-av-exit status 4

If I type in cython -v in the commandline, I get Cython version 3.1.0b1 matching the cython-git aur package.

I guess 3.1.0b1 does not satisfy >=3.1.0. Switching to extra/cython fixed the error however. I think cython-git no longer satisfies the make dependency and should be excluded as a possibility if possible in the PKGBUILD.

For everybody waiting for the 16.0.0 release: unit tests currently fail when built against Arch’s versions of the dependencies. I filed an issue upstream and would want to wait until it is resolved before pushing a new version.

Note that the package builds just fine, but then tests fail, so if you want to be on the latest version regardless, simply change the pkgver and skip check()

@astromatto: i had written you an e-mail last week to discuss this further - possibly went to your spam folder?

Hi @peippo, thanks for the answer, we are still using the package on aarch64 (as part of this project I mantain - https://github.com/devDucks/astroarch) this is used by tens of people for acquiring images with ccd cameras

I usually install on my aarch64 build machine and ship it from my repo so end users do not need to compile it by themselves. I am offering 15.0.1-2 at the moment, you may rely on my build box for aarch64 if you want.

This is the output from makepkg https://gist.github.com/MattBlack85/c9657c799d2ff0456a6d7ffea3e65e66

Be sure to delete any existing source file: rm ~/.cache/makepkg/src/python-av-15.1.0.tar.gz

@astromatto, sorry for not replying to your comment

hi peippo, could you add aarch64 to the archs? I am using this package on aarch64 since 3 years and it always compile just fine, thanks!

I don’t have the means of testing on aarch64, not sure whether it’s a good idea to have an untested package here

Thanks for noticing, upstream pushed another commit and changed the tag, it seems

I got an error about a b2sum mismatch in this package. Can you reproduce?

$ cat /home/lynn/.cache/yay/python-av/PKGBUILD | grep 'pkgver=\|b2sums='
