Hi @dreieck, thank you very much for your comments!

I am co-maintainer of the xNVMe project and I did indeed replace the release file used by this package - the original included the SPDK source files which is not used for packages. However, clearly I forgot to update the checksum, thanks for giving me a heads-up.

As for the PDF documentation you mention, this is to show how xNVMe performance compares to using the respective backends directly. In my opinion, it would not be useful to install for a user.

Regards!

Feature request: Install also ↗ the PDF documentation into /usr/share/doc/xnvme/.

Regards!

You can switch from md5sums to sha256sums and then can use upstream's https://github.com/OpenMPDK/xNVMe/releases/download/v0.7.4/xnvme-0.7.4.tar.gz.sha256sum to get the sha256sum the source should have, so you have an extra step of integrity (instead if calculating the checksum on your machine after downloading, you take what it should be in the first place).

This would result in 

sha256sums=('6d42d0bd7e6b395a37869a8713d138d332500f20ecc272ebf6789471026a7191')

Regards and thanks for maintaining!

Checksum verification fails for me:

It ↗ looks like upstream replaced the release files yesterday.

Thnaks for updating!

The hash check has been added. Once again, thank you for your help!

FabioLolix commented on 2022-02-22 11:52 (UTC)

Even if upstream don't provide an hash check, autofill using the command updpkgsums for ensuring the integrity of the download

Hello @FabioLolix, Thank you for your comment. I have implemented the requested changes, except for the hash check. Currently xNVMe doesn't include checksum in the releases, but as soon as they do I will include it in the PKGBUILD.

Hello,

  • git is not needed as makedepends
  • fur url= use the website if available
  • you're skipping source hash check which is bad
