The uudeview package is no longer broken. Would y'all like to keep the SLRN_NO_UU=true|false option?

PS: community/uudeview 0.5.20-16 cannot be recompiled (in order to compensate for the wrong LTO version) from the current PKBUILD because some compiler warnings (e.g., that %d is meant to format an int, but the variable is a long so the format specifier should be %ld) will be escalated as errors.

To mitigate this, you can temporarily remove the -Werror=format-security from the CFLAGS string in /etc/makepkg.conf.

FYI: There is now a slrn-snapshot-canlock package with cancel-lock support: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/slrn-snapshot-canlock

@m040601

I have reported the bug here: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/75290?project=5&string=uudeview

You can vote for it, if you feel like.

The current community/uudeview is broken.

To build slrn-snapshot without UU support, set the $SLRN_NO_UU variable to true|yes before invoking `makepkg. E.g.:

env SLRN_NO_UU=true makepkg

@m040601

There's only so much I can do about that as the error lies with the community/uudeview package.

If you do not need the uudeview features, you could edit the PKGBUILD file to exclude uudeview.

If you do need the uudeview features, you could try and build it yourself from https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/blob/packages/uudeview/trunk/PKGBUILD

@kseistrup,

Could you add one or two words to the description of this PKGBUILD ? What are the differences to "slrn" (currently abandoned) and "slrn-git" (last update 2015)
