Arch Linux User Repository

@darkbasic: You can use the 2.1.13 pre-version. It works just fine for me since a few days. This is the PR https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/15268

This is the git repo which I used to build it for me: git clone https://github.com/tonyhutter/zfs.git --branch zfs-2.1.13-hutter

Never mind, I think my last recommendation was wrong. The current name of this package seems to be correct, and it conforms to the established naming patterns used on AUR.

The last suffix in a name indicates the source variant used in each package:

• zfs-dkms (no special suffix means latest stable source)
• zfs-dkms-git (git master/main development source)
• zfs-dkms-rc (release or release candidate tarball or tag)

Instead of waiting for the orphan request to be fulfilled, the updated version of this package should be resubmitted as zfs-rc-dkms. Because this is a DKMS package of the RC version of zfs, not the RC version of a module whose upstream name is zfs-dkms.

Updated PKGBUILD (unfortunately 2.2.0rc4 is still not compatible with kernel 6.5):

Time for a new maintainer?

Latest release as of now is zfs-2.2.0-rc3 (27 Jul 2023).

The pkgver for that should be 2.2.0rc3, because for pacman/makepkg/vercmp, the following is true:

2.2.0rc3 < 2.2.0 < 2.2.0_rc3

@PedroHLC: Here is what I use. This is basically the zfs-dkms-rc and zfs-utils-rc files just sourcing zfs-2.0.0. I did not change maintainer info etc.

The packages depend on each other. So you want to use the -d option with makepkg to compile the packages.
