@guttural666 So...Yes
But that reference isn't useful. For your knowledge, -bin packages just download the installer and install. It fundamentally installs differently, skipping the step I had issues with. Root packages, like rustdesk, have to install releases and compile them.
The issue was with compilation. So a -git would have been better.

Ultimately though, I didn't believe the issue was on my end.
I did fix the issue and get it to compile, and I did this by manually doing an installation of vcpkg instead of relying on the dependency.
Why this works, I have no idea.

Is this package getting fixed? For reference, this one builds fine https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rustdesk-bin

I raised the scrap build issue upstream.

Installation always fails because of a missing dependency of vcpkg, even though it gets installed as one. This causes the custom build command scrap to fail.

error: failed to run custom build command for 'scrap v0.5.0 (/home/user/.cache/yay/rustdesk/src/rustdesk-1.1.9/libs/scrap)'

Adopting, I have time to fix this package. Added Co-Maintainer who actually uses this package.

Released a useless v2 of 1.1.8 that also doesn't build. I have tested build from source using docker using the 1.1.8 tag and that doesn't work either, so I don't believe the fault is my own.

Disowning, as I don't have time to fix this package.

fastgit uses CloudFlare and preventing source code tarball download (returns http 503)

Also https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=rustdesk#n37 should be install -Dm0644 "${srcdir}/libsciter-gtk.so" -t "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}/target/release"

Otherwise ${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}/target/release will become a file if it doesn't exist as a directory already.
