@TheExplorer: Unfortunately, it fails at the same place.
@FabioLolix: You're the savior! No jokes, I have spent three days trying to compile qt5-webkit. If you dare to build goldendict, your name will be praised for centuries (at least till I migrate to the webengine port goldendict-ng). 🙇 🙇 🙇
Rebuilded again

Can we add support for arm64?
arch=(x86_64 aarch64)
Added aarch64 to the list but I can't build that
I was getting a bunch of errors building this, complaining about a lot of undefined references in JavaScriptCore
After looking around, found a simple, albeit weird solution: adding "-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release" to the cmake call.
Didn't have a problem without that but recently didn't build with makepkg only devtools, on some variants for movableink branch I had same issue, it have been added now
@Vitrum-cnkj34kr8 Did you try adding "-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release" to the cmake call? It's mentioned here below.
Build fails about 23%:

Needs to be recompiled against the new icu version 74, I guess.

@Dreamkey
@FabioLolix: on the github webpage it says "Code in this repository is obsolete. Use this fork: https://github.com/movableink/webkit"
Is there any reason to keep the old repo?
@waasl can't replicate, what are you using for building?
You can also try with extra-x86_64-build from devtools package https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot
@FabioLolix I'm using pamac and I also tried to update it with yay, I don't know what is used to build. I also get different errors in pamac and yay.
I got this error trying to build this updated package with yay:
==> Extracting sources...

==> Starting prepare()...

btw, depends on
libicuuc.sohave been added so you are obliged to uninstall and rebuild when there is a new icu update instead of keeping a non-working qt5-webkit (which lead to other build issues)xiota commented on 2023-11-12 17:30 (UTC)
Or read: makepkg: Improving build times.
