@iyanmv: thanks for taking care of this. As I wrote below, I maintain the "official" driver versions for every chipset.Do you intend to package 5.3.4 version?

My orphan request was accepted. I will try to update and fix the PKGBUILD in the following days.

It looks this package has not been maintained for almost a year (but let's thank the original maintainer). I am maintaining in parallel rtl8812/14/21-dkms-git packages with "official" Realtek drivers, but would like to offer the aircrack 5.3.4 which looks properly maintained on Github by the excellent aircrack-ng team. It would also offer some cutting edge features to the users of the legacy ones. Since the aircrack 5.3.4 supports many drivers, how about an rtl88xxau-dkms-git AUR package? I could adopt this package, and if I am allowed rename it and use replaces="rtl8812au-aircrack-dkms-git" to have an rtl88xxau 5.3.4 driver.

This PKGBUILD is out of date in other ways as well. there are newer branches now and the module is named 88XXau.ko AFAIK for example.

Forget my last comment. Everything works fine with @alxbl suggestion. I guess a reboot was needed.
iyanmv commented on 2018-11-28 15:45 (UTC)
I could install the driver using @alxbl patch. However, I cannot inject packets. Anyone facing some problem?

The newer versions of GCC consider the cast mentioned by elimpfor as incompatible, and the -Werror flag makes it error out. I've made a quick patch that adds -Wno-error=<...> for the relevant warning. It's a hacky workaround until whenever upstream deals with the warning the way they find appropriate. Here's the patch in case anyone else benefits from it:
diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile

I've also modified my local PKGBUILD to apply this patch automatically in case anyone is interested in that.

Seems broken on kernel 4.19.1:

Getting random disconnections when using this driver for wifi connection with AWUS1900 alfa adapter. Use this driver instead to fix this issue: rtl8814au-dkms-git. EDIT: this aircrack driver works perfectly fine and no idea why it stopped working. Now it works fantastically and has lower ping.

This package now forces to use the branch
v5.6.4.2(the one that works better for me), which is the default one in the remote repository although they still mention branchv5.3.4as the stable one. If you have any issues, please leave a comment, and also tried to change the branch in the source array. For example, change it to:Read the README.me to learn how to set your interface in monitor mode (and other things).
