mkdir -p destdir in build() would likely make makepkg --noprepare --noextract work fine to resume an interrupted build

Thanks for your help. Now it works. My issue was that I haven't thought a second that !lto could be a PKGBUILD option and I tried to figure out how to do this with cmake.

@Maniac google, especially since it enabled its AI hallucinator, is nonsense. Please don't use that.

Read the man page instead. Try this: man PKGBUILD. Then, type /lto to search for the term "lto".

TL;DR: There is an array called options. One of these options is called lto. An exclamation mark (!) disables instead of enables the option. So, add this somewhere (outside of a function) to the PKGBUILD of heatshrink: options+=('!lto')

Thanks, can you give me a hint how i can disable lto in the PKGBUILD found in the AUR for heatshrink? I already tried it and also used google but without success so far.

Update (2025-08-28): The heatshrink package was updated, so this is no longer necessary.

If you encounter linking problems w.r.t. heatshrink like @Maniac, re-compile the heatshrink package with the !lto option.

I'm not able to build it:
