git ref 2.1.r255.g4ebc3cb builds ok if check() is disabled (unless you have the various gpg keys installed)

  • NB: this latest version is needed to build the latest templates which have switched to using build-incus (not build-lxd) - i.e the new LXD fork - incus

  • To use --import-into-incus you also need to ln -s /var/lib/lxd /var/lib/incus as the unix.socket is needed to import an image into lxd.

  • for building custom containers see distrobuilder-menu - now also available in AUR which now creates the above LXD compatibility symlink

I get:

fatal: unable to connect to github.com:
github.com[0: 140.82.121.3]: errno=Connection timed out

If:

url="https://$_url"

then source should be

source=($_pkgname::git+https://$_url)

and not:

source=($_pkgname::git://$_url)

pure git checkouts seem no longer to work on github.

Commenting out pkgver I get:
