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.

The tests work fine for me skipping the test_tools.py unit test:

  cd "$_pkgname-$_commit/common"

  # Skip test_tools.py unit test
  sed -i '/test_tools.py/d' Makefile

  # Set HOME to isolate some tests, which accesses files in ~/.ssh/, etc.
  HOME=tmp make test-v

FYI: I will look into this unit test failure soon and come back...

The checks fail for me on one system and work on another (with makepkg). Possibly related?

graysky commented on 2023-01-08 12:41 (UTC)

No need to edit the PKGBUILD just run makepkg with the --nocheck flag.

fishr commented on 2023-01-08 12:34 (UTC)

@scaramanga You may edit the PKGBUILD, disable line "make test" for now and build manually.

graysky commented on 2023-01-08 11:16 (UTC)

Builds for me with makepkg or with makechrootpkg

I have the same error as @scaramanga:

Not using any helper, just git/makepkg/pacman.

I have the same error. I'm using yay as AUR helper.

I have the same error I'm using pikaur as AUR helper

@scaramanga - are you building with makepkg or some aur unhelper?
