This package has been revised to use the variant corresponding to architecture set in some config files. This may cause problems with other packages, so users choosing to do this are (mostly) on their own.

  • makepkg.conf — CARCH="x86_64_v3" (or v2)
  • pacman.conf — Architecture = auto x86_64 x86_64_v2 x86_64_v3
  • /usr/share/devtools/setarch-aliases.d/x86_64_v3 — Contents: x86_64

The default variant is SSE3. This version is the closest available to baseline x86_64, which is currently the only architecture supported by Arch Linux. Other variants have shown no significant performance benefit, while crashing on some users' computers. The default will not be changed unless upstream offerings change or there is no other way to prevent a significant bug. Please refrain from arguing to change default for any other reason.

Alternate PKGBUILDs are available (i386, sse3, sse4, avx, avx2). They may be used by running makepkg -Cp <file>. This is the recommended way to build alternate versions to avoid interfering with other packages.

I can confirm it builds fine now with Aura! :)

@xiota Fixed indeed! And thanks for making that explicit, I'll flag your packages if I see something like this in the future.

@RubenKelevra @DJXJD Forgot to update checksum. Okay to flag my packages for this type of mistake. Should be fixed now.

RubenKelevra commented on 2024-10-19 07:03 (UTC)

Can confirm, I see the same thing.

Looking at the changes the maintainer just forgot to update the checksum for the package, it seems. So nothing malicious going on here. :)

I'm getting this when I try to update:

Package should work with aura now.

Pinned comments have been updated, including more info about changing architecture. However, doing so not recommended because it prevents other packages from being built

==> ERROR: _____ is not available for the 'x86_64_v3' architecture.

Workaround: makepkg --ignorearch.

With the default x86_64 CARCH building the package with Aura also fails now:

Aura:
