Arch Linux User Repository

This is how I fixed the build:

Edit: I hate markdown syntax. "simply indent every line of the block by at least 4 spaces or 1 tab" How about no.

Edit2: Changed URL to Zapeth fork which is a few commits ahead

Maybe the issue is because newer GCC handles K&R-style functions differently? Not really sure though.

Building fails with :

FWIW, fork from echiu64 builds fine from source : https://github.com/echiu64/trickle

This admittedly hacky patch fixes the problem for me:

Looks like LIBDIR has an unexpanded variable, it looks for ${exec_prefix}/lib/trickle/trickle-overload.so

I am having the same issue as @gunar

After install, fails for me:

$ trickle -s -d 100 curl https://archlinux.org
trickle: Could not find overload object

Thank you for making the change

I had issues building the non-git version of this package on my Raspberry Pi 3B+ running Arch Linux ARM with a Aarch64 kernel. But this one builds fine. Would you consider adding the following to your PKGBUILD?

arch=('i686' 'x86_64' 'armv6h' 'armv7h' 'aarch64')
