Arch Linux User Repository

I fix it by editing PKGBUILD, and adding the following line

package() {
...
+ install -Dm644 "systemd/target.service" "$pkgdir/usr/lib/systemd/system/target.service"
}

Hi, Is it intentional that target.service is still missing from the package? For some of us, this is one of the most important services on the server. Is there any recommended substitute or workaround available?

==> ERROR: Cannot find the git package needed to handle git sources.

==> ERROR: Build failed, check /var/cache/chroot/x86_64/miffe/build

Needs git in makedepends.

Please include the systemd unit target.service in the package. Also add the creation of the directory /etc/target. Without it, target.service crashes with an error.

While we wait for @fuhry to update, here's an updated PKGBUILD for 2.2.3 (which fixes restoreconfig in targetcli):

  else

  fi
}

build() {
  cd "$srcdir/$_pkgname"

  python -m build
}

package() {
  depends=("$(_pydep1)" "$(_pydep2)" "${depends[@]:1}")
  cd "$srcdir/$_pkgname"
  python -m pip install --no-deps --ignore-installed --root="$pkgdir/" dist/${_pkgname/-fb/_fb}-${pkgver}-py3-none-any.whl
}

2.2.3 was released. Can we get this updated?

The last commit (2025-02-05 11:50:42 -0500, dc7d72fffd7c) removed the systemd service. Was this intentional ?

Please don't use pip to install. python-installer should be used instead.

@bobpaul Thanks, I switched back to 2.1.76 and everything is working.
