Arch Linux User Repository

Hello,

I have built tis on arm so I've updated the style and added the missing depends. The code is on this repo, pkgver is still missing the fix though.

• libtd should be added to provides/conflicts because it shares the same files and upstream project.

• Current pkgver() is insufficient for -git package because missing revision and hash.

pkgver() {
  cd "td"
  local _regex='^\s*project.*TDLib\s+VERSION\s+([0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+)\s+.*$'
  local _file='CMakeLists.txt'
  local _line=$(grep -Esm1 "$_regex" "$_file")
  local _version=$(sed -E "s@$_regex@\1@" <<< "${_line:?}")
  local _lnum=$(grep -En "$_regex" "$_file" | cut -d':' -f1)
  local _commit=$(git blame -L ${_lnum:?},$_lnum -- "$_file" | awk '{print $1;}')
  local _revision=$(git rev-list --count ${_commit:?}..HEAD)
  local _hash=$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)

  printf "%s.r%s.g%s" "${_version:?}" "${_revision:?}" "${_hash::7}"
}

Simplier pkgver() command for Td.h > CMakeLists.txt tweak: grep -oP '(?<=TDLib VERSION )\S+' td/CMakeLists.txt

If you're building this for telega.el, at the time of writing, you'll need to compile version 1.8.4, which is commit hash 7eabd8ca60de025e45e99d4e5edd39f4ebd9467e . Simply apply the hclover patch here in the comments. Then, once applied, change the source from "git+https://github.com/tdlib/td.git" to "git+https://github.com/tdlib/td.git#commit=7eabd8ca60de025e45e99d4e5edd39f4ebd9467e". Then run your makepkg -si and you should be good to go.

The version number has been removed from Td.h in recent commits. Here is a patch that uses CMakeLists.txt instead:

Another way is to enable lto fat objects read here: https://archlinux.org/todo/lto-fat-objects/

tdlibs static archives break when lto is used. Can you add !lto to options?

I don't think =${pkgver} gets expanded very well. I am either holding it wrong and would appreciate a helpful nudge, or can just get it in there manually.

Can you please add =${pkgver} to the telegram-tdlib entry in the provides array?

Package telegram-tdlib-purple-git seems to depend on a specific version, that way dependencies can be specified in a clean way.

The version you will pull from the -git is always in sync, it's just that the versioning is somewhat stale, as it has to be bumped manually.
