Sorry, i thought it was clear, but on a second look i see how it wasnt. Anyway it works now, thanks.

A little more effort would be appreciated. Write a comment and don't just dump a terminal output, and building in a clean chroot would also be warranted. The offending patch is dropped, as the problem has been fixed upstream.

Please do not use any of these workarounds, but instead install 8.2508.0-2, which is fixed.

do that wrapper part

update rsyslog... remove file after (or leave it, whatever, i removed it so it doesnt clash in the future with something)

There are a couple of options available.

One is to download libgcrypt-1.11.2 from https://www.gnupg.org/ftp/gcrypt/libgcrypt/libgcrypt-1.11.2.tar.bz2 and extract libgcrypt-config, which is a shell script. Put that anywhere it will be found during the build, and it should work. In my case, I simply dropped it into /usr/bin (not necessarily optimal, but I'm lazy).

A different workaround is suggested at https://forum.endeavouros.com/t/libgcrypt-config-missing/59509/2 ("It turned out that simply replacing libgcrypt-config in the package with pkg-config solved the problem."). I haven't tried this one.

@SoLoR Would you mind sharing your workaround ?

with latest update and yes libgcrypt and pkgconf are installed:

edit: issue is libgcrypt with 1.11 doesnt come anymore with libgcrypt-config, so pkg-config should be used.

edit2: according to this commit https://github.com/rsyslog/rsyslog/issues/5405 they suppose to fixed this in latest release, however its not working. chatgpt found workaround with creating fake libgcrypt-config that emulates pkg-config and it worked after, however this is not a "solution" :)

The license identifiers are not SPDX compliant, this should be changed: 

rsyslog E: GPL3 is not a valid SPDX license identifier. See https://spdx.org/licenses/ for valid identifiers, or prefix the identifier with 'LicenseRef-', if it is custom.

Regards and thanks for the package!
