bug on armv7, attempts to enter /path/to/kernel/headers/build/armv7l; the directory is however /path/to/kernel/headers/build/arm

Also: https://github.com/brektrou/rtl8821CU/issues/85 - not sure if this is packager issue or upstream. - Too busy&tired to dig further...

@Cuiyn There has been an update on https://github.com/brektrou/rtl8821CU. My dongle is working on Linux 5.8.3.

@Ilgaz Thanks

Because it fails to work on Linux 5.8.x, I am using the modified version on https://github.com/mbrysa/rtl8821CU, and this works fine for me on 5.8.1.

I am using the manual/git download dkms version and it fails to compile on Linux 5.8.x which just released to stable. Saying for heads up.

@Skallwar I should note that the error I was getting doesn't stop the driver from working. In fact, I'm using it right now to post this comment. Perhaps I should've mentioned this earlier. So the error doesn't really impact me, I just thought it was interesting that someone else was getting the same error.

@janentikan That's strange, the fork just change the name and version of the driver

@strobelite Try remove your AUR helper cache to force a clean build. If it does not work, provide a log and I will switch to "https://github.com/ctwfei/rtl8821cu" while trying to solve your problem. I don't like to rely on a fork but if there is no option, so be it.

@Skallwar Got the same error as @strobelite, but replacing the repo in the pkgbuild to this https://github.com/ctwfei/rtl8821cu seemed to work.

@strobelite I use both lts and non lts kernel. I updated my kernel to 5.6.4 this morning and all went fine. Please report this upstream, or find an other repo, I will happily change the upstream repo

I'm still getting the same error. I uninstalled the driver with pacman, uninstalled and removed it with dkms, uninstalled dkms itself, re-installed linux and linux-headers with pacman, rebooted, installed dkms and the driver again (at this point, installing the driver gave no errors) and then reinstalled linux and linux-headers again.

After doing all this, I still get the exact same error, and I suspect that diomekes will get it, too, the next time they update their kernel.

@Skallwar have you tried using a non-LTS kernel????
