Arch Linux User Repository

FWIW, currently it is better to build from the git repo (https://github.com/0install/0install) Builds easily. 700MB+ of build dependencies later et voila.

@talex I had to remove the already installed ocamlbuild (was making the preinstalled-ocambuild check fail). Then I had to manually install and init opam, and use it to install a large number of libraries. After that, it errored out with this and I don't currently know enough to fix it, nor do I care enough to try:

Error making: zeroinstall-injector

@ragouel: what error did you get? I just tried installing 2.16 on arch using this Dockerfile, which worked for me:

FROM archlinux
RUN pacman -Sy --noconfirm opam make m4 patch unzip gcc sed awk grep diffutils curl pkg-config which gtk3 git
RUN opam init --disable-sandboxing
RUN opam install -y 0install-gtk
RUN opam exec -- 0install --version

Produces:

0install (zero-install) 2.16

(BTW, 0install no longer needs extlib)

I wasn't able to successfully compile zeroinstall-injector, I used dune 2.1 from Community-Testing. Disowning, in case someone else knows how to fix this.

I had to change my $PATH, to not contain my local .opam binaries (ocamlfind reports my .opam/ as a destdir, which doesn't work with the AUR scripts).

Installing with yaourt, I get:

```

Is it sane trying install over the existing opam installation?

@sigmundv: thanks! I've made a Dockerfile to test installing on Arch with AUR, and that now builds for me: https://hub.docker.com/r/talex5/0install-docker/~/dockerfile/

I have now updated the ocaml-ssl package, so this should build now.

According to https://github.com/mirage/ocaml-cohttp/issues/462, this was fixed in ocaml-ssh 0.5.2, but Arch only has 0.5.1 (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ocaml-ssl/)

However, the following should let it build:

yaourt -S opam unzip
opam init --comp=4.02.3
eval `opam config env`
opam install 0install

(tested in an Arch Linux Docker container)

sorry,
I can't get this to build:
ideas? Thanks in advance
