PKGBUILD for this package is being maintained there. You can install pre-built packages from my repo

Qt4 binary package has moved to my personal repository located here. You can add it to your /etc/pacman.conf for convenience, if you want (don't forget to import my GPG key).

@semeion,

qt4 was expelled from the official repositories due to https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch-dev-public/2019-April/029560.html

It will not be restored, because software needs to stop using qt4. It's fine for people to still use it via the AUR if they have old software that is not ported, but the proper solution is to get that software ported to qt5.

"It takes a long time to compile" is not a reason to move it to community.

@xuanruiqi,

Only Developers and Trusted Users have access to pkgbuild.com, and we will not be uploading qt4 there. If we wanted qt4, we would upload it to community, but we don't -- we have managed to move every package still being actively maintained in the official repos, over to qt5, and we want to stay that way.

...

Again, the proper long-term solution is to get software ported over to qt5.

Can't update qt4. Getting the following error:

-> Downloading qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.7.tar.gz... curl: (28) Failed to connect to ftp.desolve.ru port 443 after 128955 ms: Connection timed out Warning: Problem: timeout. Will retry in 3 seconds. 3 retries left.

Maybe it's better to officially revert downloading from the original source if it's available (https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/4.8/4.8.7/)? Thank you.

@dviktor thank you!

dviktor commented on 2022-01-28 07:15 (UTC)

@slav it is already uploaded to my repo. If you don't want to add it to your pacman.conf you can download the package directly

slav commented on 2022-01-28 02:47 (UTC)

Can I have request please to share build of qt4-4.8.7-35-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst?

dviktor commented on 2022-01-27 12:34 (UTC)

Interesting enough, it works fine for me in clean chroot. I've updated binary package in my repo

valandil commented on 2022-01-24 11:30 (UTC)

I can confirm this happens, even in a chroot build. Applying the patch in the Gentoo bug tracker, i.e. attribute __attribute__((used))to the offending function, didn't work either.

seems building qt4 fails... at least for me The reported Error is undefined reference to `cti_vm_throw'

can anybody verify this?

Just for information, this takes 30-40 minutes to build.

The original download.qt.io source seems to be available. I tried wget https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/4.8/4.8.7/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.8.7.tar.gz and it worked just fine - the checksum from PKGBUILD matches. Maybe the site was down only temporarily back in January?
