@Kaiya: Clear your build cache:

rm -rf /home/<redacted>/.cache/yay/scalpel-git

Compiles just fine. Build the package manually without relying on AUR helpers.

This package is not out-of-date, tagging it so is not helpful.

When installing via git clone and manually following instructions, I can't compile. For specifying -std=c++14, I tried to add that to the lines referring to gcc in the Makefile, but did not manage to compile. How to do this?

@C0rn3j: Thanks. Your suggestion worked.

Does not build with gcc 11 which seems to default to C++17, specifying --std=c++14 would probably help, didn't test.

The pkgver is already according to the wiki. It is maybe nice to have, but why change/improve it beyond the guidelines? The project hasn't been updated since 3 years ago, so the version is unlikely going to change. Even then, increasing the epoch would also not really be necessary, since nothing really changed (in PKGBUILD), only the version. A downgrade in pkgver in a VCS package is not an issue (if nothing changed in PKGBUILD), because it is normally you, the user, who decides when to upgrade VCS packages.

Can you please change "pkgver()" such, that it includes the version number, i.e. that what "scalpel -V" would output? It should be present in some source file, so you can parse it within "pkgver()". The format of the output of "pkgver()" should then be ${version}.r${release}, see Right now, only the r${release} is there. See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VCS_package_guidelines#The_pkgver.28.29_function, http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD#Version. Since you would be updating the format of pkgver, you als need to increase epoch by 1 (i.e. set "epoch=1" if not specified yet).

No longer compiles for me, full of errors like /usr/include/libio.h:306:3: error: ‘size_t’ does not name a type size_t __pad5; ^ /usr/include/libio.h:310:67: error: ‘size_t’ was not declared in this scope char _unused2[15 * sizeof (int) - 4 * sizeof (void *) - sizeof (size_t)]; ^ In file included from /usr/include/stdio.h:74:0, from /usr/include/jni.h:48, from libscalpel_jni.h:2, from libscalpel_jni.cpp:75: /usr/include/libio.h:338:62: error: ‘size_t’ has not been declared typedef __ssize_t __io_read_fn (void *__cookie, char *__buf, size_t __nbytes); ^ /usr/include/libio.h:347:6: error: ‘size_t’ has not been declared size_t __n);

Ok thank you for the info. I changed it in the PKGBUILD file. The package is also under the right license now (GPL -> Apache2.0).

willemw commented on 2014-10-22 15:06 (UTC)

Yes, PKGBUILD file misses: makedepends=('git')
