Arch Linux User Repository

This package now builds and runs (at least in a clean chroot), so I'm setting pkgrel=1.

That being said there are still issues. Upstream support for Linux is not complete.

• The generated binary is 800MB+. For some reason debug builds are only 400BM+.
• Creating windows like file open dialogues is not working yet.
• Surely more....

Please watch the upstream tracking issue for official news on Linux support.

As soon as Linux support is official and the editor handles basic functions like opening a project saving edited files I'll get it migrated to [extra].

@titaniumtown That is not accurate. LTO is enabled by default in Arch's official package build tooling which I am using to build this. I have some LTO stuff disabled in the PKGBUILD, but it does work with LTO enabled in makepkg.conf.

Note for anyone trying to build this: I kept getting an error about "unrecognized file format" with the linker, turned out this package cannot be built with LTO enabled in makepkg.conf.

As of current main branch I have a working build from the Git sources now (built on the host system). The v0.126.0-pre tag also builds but is not usable as an editor. Not to figure out the packaging dependencies properly.... Working on that now but I expect we can have a pkgrel=1 very soon!

@ashabayek That's the same error I'm stuck on. And no it's not an external dependency, the crate for that is part of the same upstream sources workspace.

Contributions welcome if anybody figures out how to get past that.

I got a different compilation error not sure exactly whats missing here: error: cannot determine resolution for the macro sql this should be installed along rust am i correct? is this a missing dependency?

Error compilation in the instalation with aur. Output error: failed to run rustc to learn about target-specific information

Thanks @pmarcelll. I applied your changes (only slightly adapted) and indeed got to the "next" issue:

error[E0463]: can't find crate for `sqlez_macros`

Is that where you landed too?

BTW you can send PR's for this package against this repo if you're interested.

@alerque @AAXZX the issue is that the zed git repo has a submodule, but since the source is downloaded as an archive, the submodule is not being pulled.

I tried to find a solution and I've found good example in the AUR: a package called anki, similar situation (git submodules and Rust). They handled it by downloading the submodule manually (with a pinned version), and in the prepare step they simply replaced the empty submodule with a symlink to the downloaded and extracted source.

You can see my modified PKGBUILD here: https://gist.github.com/pmarcelll/b22d6a00f0a0dfc6a0721ca5017fab03

It can reach the next build error :)

I also added the missing licenses. Cheers.
