We've moved to the newly-stable 4.20.0 branch. There are also other changes:

  • stubdom is fixed by disabling the vtmp and vtpmmgr components. This gets rid of a few source files and our remaining patches.
  • Debug files are only removed if the debug option is not set in makepkg.cfg (or the PKGBUILD itself)
  • pygrub has been removed
  • optdepends are adjusted for the upcoming xen-grub split package for the various Xen flavored builds.

If you're still using pygrub note that it is deprecated. The solution is to build PV grub instead, which used to be in AUR but is now missing. I am asking a couple questions on the mailing list, and I intend to put my current build of xen-grub (which supersedes xen-pvhgrub) on AUR as soon as possible. If you need to build it before that occurs, you can find it in my PKGBUILD repo.

EDIT: 4.20.0-2 adds support for the xen-edk2 package, which has a fixed UEFI for xen

I just noticed the package has been disowned. I have adopted the package and I will give it a try to upgrade it... Any help is appreciated.

Any indication to upgrade the package to 4.7? Need help?

I also cannot build 4.5.1 in a clean chroot. It looks like Xen has moved on to 4.7.0: https://www.xenproject.org/downloads/xen-archives/supported-xen-project-47-series/xen-470.html @kantras any chance of getting an update or taking on a co-maintainer to help out. The PKGBUILD is way beyond my comfort level to help with and I don't really have hardware to test on so I am really of no help.

Package is currently broken; needs to be updated to support GCC 6, etc. Have tried modifying current PKGBUILD with -Wno-misleading-indentation flag on line 129: export CFLAGS='-fno-caller-saves -Wno-misleading-indentation' makepkg still fails to build.

Hi, Can't compile from the AUR repo. Here I get this error, same as the last comment. non-fatal.c: In function 'init_nonfatal_mce_checker': non-fatal.c:97:5: error: this 'if' clause does not guard... [-Werror=misleading-indentation] if ( __get_cpu_var(poll_bankmask) == NULL ) ^~ non-fatal.c:103:2: note: ...this statement, but the latter is misleadingly indented as if it is guarded by the 'if' switch (c->x86_vendor) { ^~~~~~ after looking around a bit, it seems that the the 4.5.3 fixes this issues. Can the maintainer of this package update it ? Thanks. n.

I tried many times, but couldn't make this work - as other people also wrote... I then first re-compiled binutils ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20858175/how-to-boot-xen-hypervisor-from-uefi-using-gummiboot-under-arch-linux ) and then did "git clone https://gitlab.com/johnth/aur-xen/" followed by "makepkg" and maybe here I had to do "pacman -S mingw-w64-binutils" and finally "pacman -U xen-4.7.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz". xen-4.7.0-1 seemed to be installed, however I couldn't make xen work. This is the first time for me on arch linux. Later I downloaded https://gitlab.com/johnth/aur-xen/tree/xen-4.6 and repeated. I think this is better, although now I want to see if I can make it work with virt-manager. Just a hint of advice for anyone else who like me couldn't get the official arch Xen to work...

Hello all, this package fails to create domU after update libiscsi from libiscsi-1.13.0-1-x86_64 to libiscsi-1.17.0-2-x86_64, After this update it's can't find "libiscsi.so.4" Downgrade is helpful.

Is your plan to create a xen-4.5 package and keep xen as the most current? If so, you might want to consider creating a xen-4.6 package at the same time. That way someone who wants to stay on the 4.x release, never has to change packages.
