If I execute makepkg I get an output similar as follows:

The only difference I notice in the log is the additional log output by git when retrieving the sources. Maybe the git clone on your machine does not work properly?

In any case, as long as I cannot reproduce the problem, I am not sure how to further help. As a workaround, maybe the symfony-cli-bin package works for you.

Hi @famoser, I have the same problem as @kemelzaidan on my private desktop, which uses Linux Manjaro XFCE. Installation of symfony-cli happens through AUR. I'm not at this laptop right now, so can't provide any version numbers.

The update isn't yet offered on my work laptop, where I also use Linux Manjaro XFCE, version 23.1.4. On that system, symfony-cli 5.7.5-6 is installed.

Hi @kemelzaidan, unfortunately I cannot reproduce the error: The package still installs fine on my machine. What confuses me in the posted log is that the symfony-cli seems to be NOT FOUND; but if the checksum were wrong, I believe it would state FAILED. So is the checksum really a problem here? And it does not intuitively seem to be clear why you would not include a checksum with git? I cannot find this in the wiki: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD

For me to debug further, I'd be thankful if you could provide exact steps to reproduce the problem (e.g. do you use an AUR helper, ...). Or maybe you have already fixed the problem, and can already share the reason/solution?

I'm having this error:

==> Retrieving sources...
  -> Updating symfony-cli git repo...
==> Validating source files with sha256sums...
    symfony-cli ... NOT FOUND
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!
 -> error making: symfony-cli-exit status 1
 -> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
symfony-cli - exit status 1

I took a look at the PKGBUILD and I believe you don't need a checksum for sources downloaded from Git.

Hi @EloDollZ, it seems as though the installation of symfony-cli worked fine, and your question is more about symfony-cli itself. Note that I do not maintain symfony-cli, only the installation procedure from AUR here.

I will still try to answer your question, but ask you to take further questions to another place (to avoid off-topic discussions here). symfony-cli seems to try to install https://github.com/symfony/skeleton, but fails because the iconv extension is not activated. You can refer to the wiki on how to activate this extension: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PHP

Hey Long time silent watcher, but wanted to try symfony out, but i get an error when i try to create a project it says: "cannot use symfony/skeleton it requires ext-iconv which is missing" but i can't find anything for a "ext-iconv" and i have made sure that php is installed and all that, saw the code was primary in php

perfect and good work!

This package now builds directly from source. If you'd rather not download the go build dependency, switch to symfony-cli-bin.

Thank you for the quick update! and +1 to symfony-cli-bin

Good point @hapakaien, thank you! I hope I can sort it out with minimal interruptions for users.
