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

@3000 I would suggest posting your problem in the xen-users mailing list. You're much more likely to get help there, as this isn't an Archlinux-specific problem. Just make sure to mention the fact that you're using Arch.

I am really sorry, I totally forgot to mention that I CAN actually build xen - but only with legacy boot. However it won't build with UEFI boot. I already tried the solution posted below by Kantras. He used a modified binutils-multilib. He posted his solution in late 2012. So I am not sure it's still relevant. I tried, but it doesn't work for me.

Here I've compiled perfectly using yaourt. You can try re generate the locales: cat /etc/locale.conf LANG="en_US.UTF8" locale-gen Generating locales... en_US.UTF-8... done en_US.ISO-8859-1... done You can also try on a fresh arch "systemd" installation. uname -a (64 bits) Linux archlocal 3.9.3-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun May 19 22:50:29 CEST 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux

@3000 That's the line. And no, unfortunately, I don't have any UEFI motherboards to test on. Though I find it strange that UEFI would make the difference on that line in particular, I won't rule it out as a possibility. You should definitely try removing that line, as trying can't hurt at this point. Also, there's been some chat on the xen-users mailing list about UEFI stuff recently. Are you trying to compile on a 32-bit kernel?

I tried installing it with packer - but I get the same error message

I can't find that line, I just had a look in the "View PKGBUILD" from this page. I can only find this one: "mv etc/{init,rc}.d" Is that the one? @zootboy: are you also having a uefi boot? I will try to download packer and install it with that command of yours.
