Can this be "updated" to build with qt6 for better compatibility with Plasma 6? Some major functionality is broken after updating to Plasma 6. Most importantly is that it no longer works with the KDE global menu plugin, nor can I get the application to display a menu bar within it's own window... which means there is no way to access the settings. There are also some UI bugs that just make it look weird under Plasma 6.

Unfortunately, development seems to be pretty much stalled, but perhaps bumping build deps to qt6 will fix things?

This seems to build a lot more than just the client. Can all the other components be stripped out of the the PKGBUILD file without ruining anything? I do not need the core, I do not need the light client, etc. I just need the client. Been building over an hour at this point and I can't help by think it's not necessary.

$ yay -S quassel-client-git

One would think that would build only the client, no?

Yup, it built all 8 packages just to install a single 5.72MB program. Pretty much the definition of inefficient.

Clean chroot.

make: Leaving directory '/home/main-builder/pkgwork/src/git'
  -> Preparing build directory: quassel-light-git...
/home/main-builder/pkgwork/PKGBUILD: line 120: rsync: command not found
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

Also, should not be using msg2 to display messages, per Arch package guidelines.

kf5-related dependencies have been renamed

Also, this package is blocking quassel, which should be used, or left available, for stable builds. Please revise. (quassel is currently in extra, but it's still a misnamed pkgbase.)

Ok, that sucks. I won't be able to test this now, but I'll add the cmake param right away.

Also, I'm pretty sure the files being put in /usr/lib64 causes it to change to a directory instead of a symlink to /usr/lib which in turn caused mkinitcpio to produce a broken init which caused kernel panic in the init stage of boot.

So if anyone else is having issues booting, there's possible cause.

Arch doesn't use /usr/lib64, if you could change the package install to modify cmake_install.cmake to use lib instead that would be great. The current behaviour isn't correct in this case. Adding -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib should do it from my tests.

Thanks for adding the other suggestions!

Thanks for the comments. I don't plan to switch to ninja, but integrated the other suggestions.

ChrisLane commented on 2018-11-21 21:23 (UTC)

Please add aarch64 to the architecture list.

ChrisLane commented on 2018-11-20 10:14 (UTC)

Also, using ninja instead of make would speed builds up a bit.
