If people are having issues, try building with extra-x86_64-build in a clean chroot.

I just want to express my gratitude, by folowing @Pippip19 's comment to @Feakster regarding the file policy, I was finally able to upgrade zotero to zotero 6.0.15-1, previously it was failing. Thanks

nomaly commented on 2022-10-23 21:18 (UTC)

@agkphysics awesome. it's there and I was able to install the package file. thanking you kindly for the help

agkphysics commented on 2022-10-23 11:06 (UTC)

@nomaly That means it built. It can't find it because I think it's looking for official packages not custom packages. Check wherever your built packages are for the created package file zotero-6.0.15-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst.

nomaly commented on 2022-10-23 10:36 (UTC)

@agkphysics Apologies, I didn't with the previous message! Tried just now with extra-x86_64-build and it's still failed. Not sure if I've messed up somewhere this is the first time I've ever done something like this. My exact steps:

  1. git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/zotero.git
  2. installed yay -S devtools-git
  3. tried with extra-x86_64-build -c it errored the first time failing to find lzo so had to yay -S lzo (which wasn't up to date, but updated successfully) and tried again.
  4. ran extra-x86_64-build -c again and everything seemed to complete until the very end where it gave the following:

Have I missed some essential step?

Terminal's stdout is muuuch longer but I'm not sure if it is appropriate to post it all here.

agkphysics commented on 2022-10-21 22:20 (UTC)

@Feakster @Pippip19 I have updated the PKGBUILD to set the file protocol on a per-command basis, which seems to solve this problem.

@nomaly Have you tried with extra-x86_64-build?

Hi there,

My system is up to date (with yay -Syu)

I've attempted installing this but i'm getting build errors around the pdf-worker part:

Error: Error: Command failed: npm run build

I have nodejs-lts-gallium installed

@Feakster I was receiving the same errors and believe (temporarily) assigning the 'file' protocol an allow policy solved the issue: git config --global --add protocol.file.allow always I removed the entry generated in my ~/.gitconfig after the build succeeded.

Feakster commented on 2022-10-19 09:47 (UTC)

Started getting errors on this during prepare(). The error says:

I've had to make nodejs-lts-gallium a build requirement, due to a build error in the pdf-worker submodule. I've mentioned this on the Zotero dev mailing list.

But until this is fixed, you will need to install nodejs-lts-gallium or at least build in a chroot using

extra-x86_64-build
