@micwoj92: Yeah, I couldn't get 0.6.1 to build anymore and dep is deprecated, anyway.

Oh you decided to use alpha version :p

@xerus: Updated and builds now.

P.S. I shouldn't have to list all those conflicting packages, they need to provide and conflict with tldr.

Haven't been able to install this for a while :/

Starting build()...
go: cannot find main module, but found Gopkg.lock in /home/janek/.cache/yay/tldr++/src/gopath/src/github.com/isacikgoz/tldr
        to create a module there, run:
        go mod init
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
error making: tldr++

btw, it also conflicts with tealdeer

@micwoj92: It would be better to create a VCS package, tldr++-git.

Mind if I create tldr alpha for the time being?

@micwoj92: There are some issues with 1.0.0-alpha.

I've seen that v1.0.0-alpha released, but I understand why you might not want to update to alpha release. The 0.X.X releases are marked on GitHub as pre-releases so maybe it shouldnt be that much of a problem?

@micwoj92: As @iboyperson mentioned below, the current version does not have Go modules support.

upstream uses go modules now, that means that dep package should not be needed to build

@LightQuantum: I missed that, thanks.

Maybe 'git' should be added to make depends?

@yochananmarqos Whoops my apologies it appears this version does not have go modules support and that it only supports it on master. I am very sorry for any inconvenience.

@iboyperson: Are you sure you don't have anything in ~/go/ from a previous version of this package when I was using go get? This is what I get using your revised PKGBUILD:

==> Starting build()...

    Aborting...

@iboyperson: Without using $GOPATH, it complained it couldn't find github.com/isacikgoz/tldr. I'll take another look after work.

@yochananmarqos No prob! Additionally, Go >=1.11 packaging guidelines does not use GOPATH or dep as go now has integrated dependency management via Go Modules (see go.mod and go.sum in tldr++ repo). Thus as shown in my PKGBUILD from the previous comment we are able to completely forgo the prepare section and use of GOPATH.

@iboyperson: Thanks, I couldn't figure out how to strip $PWD from the binary following the wiki.

Here is a revised PKGBUILD for Go >=1.11 packaging guidelines as tldr++ supports this. For the build flags see https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/git-lfs as this appears to be a more complete version of what is referenced in the guidelines.

Awesome! Thanks!

Fixed!

This doesn't seem to compile anymore?
