Salut,

The following flags allowed me to compile it on my computer.

make CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -std=gnu99 -fcommon" xcrysden

Then if you have an error as me about : ... Couldn't configure togl widget ...

Edit the /usr/share/xcrysden/Tcl/custom-definitions file and uncomment the line :

set toglOpt(accum) false

Hope it helps

 -> error making: xcrysden-exit status 4
 -> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
xcrysden - exit status 4

This package seems to conflict with cgns package (which is a dependency of paraview).

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
xcrysden: /usr/bin/unitconv exists in filesystem (owned by cgns)

Not sure how to resolve this besides removing paraview.

nevermind, the problem is with TCL permissions, see here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bwidget

chmod -R 755  "${pkgdir}"/usr/lib/tcl8.6/*

I'm getting an error of missing BWidget. Can someone help me here?

Error in startup script: can't find package BWidget
    while executing
"package require BWidget"
    (file "/usr/share/xcrysden/Tcl/xcInit.tcl" line 460)

@deep_thought I think so, and I have fix it via https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Gcc_10_porting_notes/fno_common#The_problem.

Compilation currently fails with 4976 errors of the kind: "/usr/bin/ld: xcAppInit.o:/mnt/crypted/eigeneSkripte/archPackages/xcrysden/src/xcrysden-1.6.2/C/struct.h:199: multiple definition of `nbonds'; detnsplit.o:/mnt/crypted/eigeneSkripte/archPackages/xcrysden/src/xcrysden-1.6.2/C/struct.h:199: first defined here" Is this due to the new gcc?

I managed to install it by doing the following: 1) yaourt -S xcrysden 2) when prompted to edit PKGBUILD I open a new terminal and navigate to /tmp/yaourt-username/aur-xcrysden 3) edit line 25 in the Make.sys file as stated below 4) update checksum: makepkg -g >> PKGBUILD 5) build: makepkg 6) then install: sudo pacman -U xcrysden-1.5.60-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

If there are errors with bwidget and fortran, just install them first and then follow the steps again. I'll keep the resulting tar.gz for future use too!
