Arch Linux User Repository

Under Manjaro try to install Webmin, I have following error:

/var/tmp/pamac-build-bao/perl-authen-pam/PKGBUILD: line 30: make: command not found ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting...

I need your help.

I cannot understand your comment:

This isn't exactly the best fix, but it will allow makepkg to continue on. Just tested this. Change the find -exec sed line to execute sed in separate lines.

-- find "$pkgdir"/etc/webmin -type f -exec sed -i -e "s:$pkgdir::g" {} +

++ find "$pkgdir"/etc/webmin -type f -exec sed -i -e "s:$pkgdir::g" {} \;

which file should I change?

@jrdn

It works!

Thanks

@amish Thanks for the information, did not know it was discussed. I do see your comment on github (https://github.com/webmin/webmin/discussions/2076). So I guess it is your prerogative on which to choose. Meh? shrug

Hello,

Today's update on Manjaro Xfce with:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/webmin.git
cd webmin
env LC_ALL=C makepkg -si

(or with yay, or pamac-manager)

fails with:

...
sed: couldn't edit /home/h2/Installs/git/webmin/pkg/webmin/etc/webmin/system-status/config: not a regular file
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().
    Aborting...

@jrdn - I was waiting for next release because webmin was releasing minor fixes rapidly and I was waiting for it to be stable.

Also I am not using github because sourceforge and github sources differ and webmin author recommended to use sourceforge one as official one.

https://sourceforge.net/p/webadmin/mailman/webadmin-list/thread/94f498c3-e79e-1347-aae1-923f6bcb1d85%40gmail.com/#msg36663808

@amish - Webmin releases may be pulled from github directly. This package is 3 releases behind. This AUR is pointing to 2.102 and current is 2.105, after 103 and 104, with nothing that looks like it would require a PKGBUILD modification.

Current PKGBUILD source: http://downloads.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/webadmin/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz

You can update the PKGBUILD to source("https://github.com/webmin/webmin/releases/download/$pkgver/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz")

@mio-19 - I am waiting for release of next version.

@amish. Could you please update webmin to the current version?
