Although other Xbox gamepad drivers are now available, this package is still useful as an input remapper for programs that support only Xbox controllers.

This package is now based on a fork that aims to keep the program working.

Confirming @phiresky. Same here, download return 403 to me.

For some reason the repo and everything seems gone? https://gitlab.com/xboxdrv/xboxdrv and https://xboxdrv.gitlab.io

both show 404, so this package doesn't build.

I don't know if it's a glitch or if the author deleted the repo. But a copy of the current version is here and the package builds fine with it:

@effeffe Thanks for your advice! I'll keep that in mind for future comments or requests.

effeffe commented on 2023-03-30 09:38 (UTC)

@darude that is because you have not installed base-devel, which is a requirement to build from AUR. Also, please note that Manjaro development is done on a best effort basis, as the packages here need to be mainly designed to work for ArchLinux first, and other distro later

darude commented on 2023-03-30 09:09 (UTC)

Please add a dependency for package patch. Atleast on manjaro its not installed by default.

Thanks!

The SHA512 hash for xboxdrv-0.8.8.tar.gz is wrong, and the PKGBUILD is expecting a 'v' in the version number of the source directory.

EDIT: Figured it out, my makepkg.conf had a typo.

Manually installed all dependencies and got this result through yay (cleanBuild) and manually with makepkg -s PKGBUILD

SCons Error: option -j: invalid integer value: '&(nproc)'

In the service file, PIDFile=/var/run/xboxdrv.pid should be changed to something like PIDFile=/run/xboxdrv. With it under /var, systemd logs the following warning:

/usr/lib/systemd/system/xboxdrv.service:8: PIDFile= references a path below legacy directory /var/run/, updating /var/run/xboxdrv.pid → /run/xboxdrv.pid; please update the unit file accordingly.

Please change the URL to https://gitlab.com/xboxdrv/xboxdrv
Took some time to search where the project was moved. And that http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv link is not working.

After doing some research and installing "pip" the workaround now works to get this compiled. This package should be considered "broken" until the workaround steps are integrated into the package itself. Packages which require manual intervention should be classed as "broken".
