I see. In some modes, when the output is not tty anymore, it works like 2>&1.

Yes, it's a problem. Now I see. Sorry for not getting it the first time.

@Felixoid: Sorry for the imprecise explanation. You are correct: calling makepkg from bash works fine, but if someone build all their packages in volatile containers without letting them touch their local system it will fail with mentioned pkgver error, as in container output of makepkg is not attached to terminal, making python setup.py -V dump its warning message to stdout ( same as calling nohup python setup.py -V )

Run extra-x86_64-build -r /tmp/${PWD##*/} to reproduce the error.

[Edit] I took a looksy at makepkg:run_function() and find out that error arises when -L flag is passed to makepkg.

Run makepkg -CodL to reproduce the error when building localy.

Sorry, it sounds nonsense to me.

Works perfectly w/o consuming the stderr

The error is thrown by description-file in setup.cfg file, but the project is abandoned and is not supported by the owner. I am pretty sure, it won't be fixed.

update: forget my latest statement, he just merged all the stack of PRs one month ago. So I've sent the PR to fix deprecation.

Although, it's just warning, and it definitely shouldn't be considered as a part of package version.

Please consume stderr in pkgver() otherwise makepkg throws an error:

I switched to glow. Recommended here: https://github.com/axiros/terminal_markdown_viewer/issues/84

Since the upstream is not updated for long, I am not sure what to do. One should ask Axiros GmbH to take care of a stale code or provide a stable updated source

Thank you @bartus, done. Next time, flag a package as outdated, please.

bartus commented on 2019-12-17 15:58 (UTC)

Add 'git' to 'makedepends' array.
