Using an AUR helper such as yay to build packages including backintime is HIGHLY discouraged. The recommended build method is to use a clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.

Please stop posting build failures because you insist on building with yay or other AUR helpers.

I see the same issue as tamas. I backup over SSH and this error has occurred with me after the recent update of sshfs to 3.2.0. Downgrading sshfs (to 3.0.0) fixes the issue.

I get the following error message immediately after calling "backintime backup": INFO: Take a new snapshot.

Thanks, that did it (although I'll miss the infinality fonts).

@geo909: I do have this issue, too, for some applications. But it is releated to using an unofficial freetype2 and not related to backintime. There are some bug reports like https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/52424

After the last update, I'm having problems running the gui. Is it just me? > backintime-qt4 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/backintime/qt4/app.py", line 30, in <module> import qt4tools File "/usr/share/backintime/qt4/qt4tools.py", line 21, in <module> from PyQt4.QtGui import QFont, QFileDialog, QListView, QAbstractItemView, \ ImportError: /usr/lib/libharfbuzz.so.0: undefined symbol: FT_Get_Var_Blend_Coordinates

No need for the dependency, see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites

Hi, binutils should be included into the makedepends, as strip is required (otherwise it fails). Thanks for maintaining this!

@willemw - At the moment, the build will file if you do that...

willemw commented on 2016-08-01 15:17 (UTC)

test() in PKGBUILD should be check().
