2024.01.27 it appears to be working, thanks it's been many months since I've retried building this. I wish the creator would do a 4k option.

@gunther pacman/makepkg cannot handle dependencies that only exist in the AUR. if you want those taken care of automatically, you'd need to use an AUR helper, like pikaur, yay, pamac, etc

Hello wonderful people! The packages 'glee' and 'flam3' are listed are dependencies, but I had to manually install each of them from AUR, otherwise it would complain that they were missing. Is it a fault on my end or does the 'depends' array search in the official repositories only each of its entries? Hope this helps, thanks a lot and keep up the good work!

@kb8doa

Add/Remove Software (aka Pamac) looks like it builds in the following location by default:

/var/tmp/pamac-build-$USER

(where $USER is your username)

It successfully built this package when I tested it.

For future reference, you can wrap snippets of code in ``` for easy reading (put on line above and line below the code).

Am new to Arch and do not know how to remove the downloaded archive, as I do not know where the Add/Remove Software keeps these files.

FYI - Here is the PKGBUILD file that Add/Remove Software program is using for this AUR package:

@kb8doa Try removing the downloaded archive and re-run makepkg. Currently Github seems to send the correct archive (tested from four different locations).

This is because of https://github.blog/changelog/2023-01-30-git-archive-checksums-may-change/

They reverted it but some files might still be cached.

@whatshisname What's the sha256sum of electricsheep-3.0.2-12.tar.gz on your machine?

whatshisname commented on 2023-01-30 20:45 (UTC) (edited on 2023-01-30 20:47 (UTC) by whatshisname)

Getting following error when running "makepkg -si":
