Arch Linux User Repository

Actually, looks like there's some newer version on GH: https://github.com/TA-Lib/ta-lib/tags

Is this package actually out of date? Looks like 0.4.0 is the latest version. (Updated in 2007?!?) https://sourceforge.net/projects/ta-lib/files/ta-lib/

It worked for me on aarch64 after applying this patch:

with the config.guess and config.sub downloaded from savannah as suggested by the config script itself:

http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.guess
http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.sub

Thanks @JimmyAllnighter, it works. I suggest just change line 32 in PKGBUILD to

make -j1

is enough and localized so it doesn't affect other compilation.

Found the cause of this error:

mv: cannot stat '.deps/gen_code-gen_code.Tpo': No such file or directory

It can be fixed by disabling parallel jobs in MAKEFLAGS.

ie. MAKEFLAGS="-j1"

I am not familiar with how make works, so there is probably a better way of setting that flag, but to just get ta-lib building I modified the MAKEFLAGS line in /etc/makepkg.conf temporarily.

Solution was found here.

Additionally, this seems like the sort of thing that should be reported (at least according to the makepkg wiki page)

This is my first 'contribution' to the AUR community. Hope this helped.

Got this error:

Thanks for the patch and the offer. I added you as a co-maintainer.

Found compilation errors due to -Werror=format-security new default compilation parameter from, I suppose, autoconf/automake.

Fixed 2 format strings, added small patch

Can be merged from: https://gitlab.com/archbaiton/ta-lib/-/tree/drb-fix-werror

Also: I'm OK to co-maintain, if you need it.

Have a good day ;)
