Hi @Embryonic, for your information, that doesn’t change the fact that solaar-git remains the development package. Admittedly, Solaar has made its way into extra/solaar, but that is a stable release version. solaar-git remains the development version (more up to date but less stable), like any other Arch Linux package.

@Max-P I think you can remove the out-of-date flag, as of writing, it compiles fine and is 1.1.19.r5.gd82233b6-1 whereas extra/solaar is 1.1.18-2

According to the Solaaar Github page, there is a new AUR Package at /packages/extra/any/solaar/, just for anyone coming by here.

Looks as though someone marked this package out of date since it now has a dependency of python-typing_extensions, but also since the AUR pkgver isn't synced with the version is installs, updating with paru or yay does not trigger an updated but a manual install with paru -S solaar-git does pull down the latest GIT version.

I hope the maintainer @Max-P can fix these two things

Hi. I had to install python-typing_extensions for it to work. Is that normal?

@Max-P: Please do not litter PKGBUILDs with ad-hoc cleanup code. The proper way to do this is to use makepkg --cleanbuild to build your packages.

Max-P commented on 2024-05-13 08:05 (UTC)

No you were right, it still didn't build because of line 58, just because my fix didn't work and not because I just unflagged it for no reason. Should be resolved now (hopefully, this package is cursed). I was trying to delete the bare minimum to avoid an rm-rf incident.

When I unflag packages with no changes I usually comment or email the reason. Just check the change history next time before assuming a maintainer didn't, sometimes we just mess up the fixes ^^"

Also removing the line entirely would break the package next update as most AUR helpers reuse the directory as-is, and this creates two distribution wheels and fails to package. It's there for a reason, hopefully now it builds for everyone correctly.

I apologise for any confusion caused, this issue was on my end (I think) but it appeared vaguely similar to the first one, so I assumed it still wasn't fixed. I'll let you know if any more issues pop up.

Looks like one needs to comment out line 58 for package to build.

Max-P commented on 2024-05-01 04:19 (UTC)

Alright this is getting ridiculous. I've rebuilt the PKGBUILD on top of the one from [extra] fresh, so it should be good now.

class101 commented on 2024-04-30 11:07 (UTC)

It looks like the package now wantw python-wheel as dependencies but it should be in a make dependencies because if I'm not wrong, it is used to produce a .whl package only part of the installation

ERROR Missing dependencies:
        wheel
