I can't build it, because zig need llvm 15 (not 14)

@edtoml Updated. It should work now.

With the latest changes to the Zig build process the PKGBUILD no longer works. Problem is that the "cmake --build build" attempts to write directly to /usr/lib. The last part of the build uses zig (stage2) and wants to use -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr as written when building stage3. This is the second version of this PKGBUILD.

https://zigbin.io/bdc712

build() {
    cmake -B build -S zig \
        -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=None \
        -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=../stage3 \
        -DZIG_PREFER_CLANG_CPP_DYLIB=ON \
        -DZIG_STATIC_ZLIB=on
    cmake --build build
}

check() {
    # omit full compiler test since it takes ages
    ../stage3/bin/zig version
}

package() {
    mv ../stage3 "$pkgdir/usr"
    install -Dm644 zig/LICENSE "$pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/$provides/LICENSE"
}

Your mileage may vary

This builds w/ LLVM 14 for me now but I had to add -DZIG_STATIC_ZLIB=on as mentioned here https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/12069#issuecomment-1179757906

I just update arch, and now it doesn't build with the following error:

-- Configuring zig version 0.10.0-dev.2855+aab1284e1
CMake Error at cmake/Findllvm.cmake:70 (message):
  expected LLVM 13.x but found 14.0.6 using /usr/bin/llvm-config
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:107 (find_package)

It can be fixed with:

 pacman -S llvm13 clang13 lld13

And add to PKGBUILD

    -DLLVM_CONFIG_EXE=/usr/lib/llvm13/bin/llvm-config \
    -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-I/usr/lib/llvm13/include/" \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-I/usr/lib/llvm13/include/" \
    -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS="-L/usr/lib/llvm13/lib/" \

to the cmake call (first one)

Currently the latest master commit will not build because of Zig issue #11137. Essentially Zig does not link to c_nonshared, although that is needed on recent version of Arch.

Here is an example of a compilation failure on latest master: Github Gist Several other examples of compilation failure are available on the issue.

PR #11529 provides a simple (but hacky) fix to the solution.

You should patch it until upstream adds a proper fix.

graysky commented on 2022-06-17 12:43 (UTC)

@clarfonthey - just build with makepkg -sA to skip the arch check.

Techcable commented on 2022-05-24 18:14 (UTC)

It would be really amazing if you could add a debug build for this package. Maybe using OPTIONS=(debug !strip) and passing the appropriate options to cmake.

Not sure if this is best done in a seperate package, but it would be really awesome :)

clarfonthey commented on 2022-05-05 15:46 (UTC)

Would you be willing to add aarch64 to the list of supported architectures? I haven't had any problems building for it and it would be useful to not have to locally patch it.
