Thanks -- I removed ccache from makepkg.conf, and removed the cache, and rebuilt the package and it worked.
(Note, on my system setting MAKEFLAGS='-j' causes the build to take all my free memory and hang the system; but it compiles fine without -j. Thanks for packaging it.)
@gi1242: try a clean build (makepkg -C). The header version is determined at application compile time, so there's a chance that value is cached.
@gi1242 can you report a comprehensive issue (arch, sioyek, libmupdf version, full build logs) to github.com/barrettruth/sioyek-dev?
The more context I have the better. Thanks for using the package and hope that I can help out.
After a mupdf upgrade to 1.27.2 I'm having trouble with this package. I keep getting the error:
cannot create context: incompatible header (1.27.1) and library (1.27.2) versions
could not create mupdf context
(I rebuilt the package after the mupdf upgrade but can't seem to shake this error.)
Hello, I'd like to self-plug and point everyone using this package to sioyek-dev - a new Sioyek AUR package that bundles the libmudpf version, uses the development branch, and "just works." No more libmupdf crashes!
Hello again, libmupdf bump to 1.27.0-1
@ageorgiev_bg re-build the package.
Hello,
Due to update of libmupdf 1.26.11 -> libmupdf 1.26.12, sioyek crashes with: sioyek: error while loading shared libraries: libmupdf.so.26.11: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I tried to symlink libmupdf.so.26.12 to libmupdf.so.26.11 lib with no success.
Some pdfs caused sioyek to crash(see https://github.com/ahrm/sioyek/issues/1151). A workaround is to remove two options in default CXXFLAG. Maybe we can modify the PKGBUILD as suggested in this comment https://github.com/ahrm/sioyek/issues/1151#issuecomment-2482769194.
