@AwesomeHaircut I had already earlier mentioned that I downgraded to the old LTS kernel. Still nothing of the mentioned here works. Still am waiting on a CLEAR answer about how and where to add this makepkg -si
Exact location and short tut, please, and I am okay trying it again.
I changed my pkgbuild as you said but it didn't work for me :(
I also had problems installing droidcam on Manjaro with kernel 5.5.13-1-MANJARO! The problem was that extramodules is a symlink. The Solution is to resolve the symlink with "readlink -f".
Change the build file in line 58: MODPATH=$(readlink -f "/usr/lib/modules/$(uname -r | sed 's/.[0-9]+-[0-9]+//')/extramodules")
I have looked at all the comments about my issue (I think), but am still having a problem installing this package. I get the following message:
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) droidcam: /usr/lib/modules/5.5.13-1-MANJARO/extramodules exists in filesystem (owned by linux55)
So I downloaded the snapshot and tried "makepkg -si" - and got the exact same error
Maybe this wiki page can get you out of your confusion @Saka2u1u https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg
Again, no need for workarounds or manual installs. Whatever you normally use for installing things should work now.
Actually I think no one even says where and how to use the makepkg -si with which code... Nothing works, enough time wasted. Removed.-
I was indeed missing the linux-headers package.
I went ahead and installed 5.5, and the 5.5 headers (I don't know why it wasn't installed along with it), and that seems to make thing work wonders again.
Completely different issue. Thanks a ton for the help.
