Arch Linux User Repository

PKGBUILD cannot download Vivado, you have to download Vivado before executing the PKGBUILD. Refer to PKGBUILD.

This PKGBUILD is also able to install Vitis with some errors, however there is a standalone package called vitis AUR which seems to be more advanced than the installation in this PKGBUILD.

@BonusPlay I was able to get around that by creating a script named 'arch' and putting it on my path.

#!/bin/bash

echo $(uname -m)

I don't get that error anymore, however now it lingers for a bit longer and closes.

@BonusPlay: I don't have 2020.2 installed right now (and don't have the space to upgrade), but since it also seems to occur with non-packaged installations, I'll put the blame with Xilinx here. I'll keep an eye on that forum thread in case someone finds a fix, thanks for notifying me.

I'm having trouble launching vitis_hls. vivado launches perfectly ok though...

I found related problem here but no solution yet.

I think users should do that for themselves, I for example do very much want the package to be compressed, both so it uses less space in my repository and the package caches and so it can be downloaded quicker. I'll add a comment in the PKGBUILD though :)

@xiretza, it is totally worth it setting PKGEXT='.pkg.tar'. I think you can do that in the PKGBUILD as well. It built the package in just 40 minutes instead of 2h plus on this laptop.

@xiretza, there are not, I did remove the old partial pkg.tar.xz and now it does seem to get past that error. Just now spending a good chunk of time generating the mtree and now finally compressing the pkg.tar.

@nickoe sorry, I've never seen that error before. You said you removed src/ and pkg/ - there really shouldn't be any other state involved! I'm not really sure what the error is referring to, but just to make sure, can you check if there are any Vivado-related desktop entries in the usual places (~/.local/share/applications/, /usr/share/applications/, maybe also /root/.local/share/applications)?

@xiretza, thank you for making the package but I am having some difficulties.

I was trying to build this and got impatient watching it single threaded do tome thing with xz so I figured I would try to set PKGEXT='.pkg.tar' instead to not have it compress and uncompress this huge package unnecessarily, but after this I get below error when rebuild with plain makepkg. Do you have any idea what causes this or how I can resolve that? I did try to remove the src and pkg folders.

Thanks @yuyichao! I didn't notice that.
