@laichiaheng - kodi is bound to a specific version of ffmpeg which is generally older than Arch's package. We avoid incompatibilities by using that specific version (ie internal ffmpeg). Recommend that you build kodi in 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.

@BlackIkeEagle I tried downloading rapidjson, but of course it gets replaced by rapidjson-git as the package managers run through dependencies. I wanted to make sure that it wasn't something I was doing. I appreciate the work that you put into maintaining kodi-git.

@tixetsal I know, the maintainer of rapidjson-git must fix the package first. see my comments there: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/rapidjson-git/

I still can't build this package (with yaourt or pacaur), and I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I receive the following error: xbmc/utils/StringUtils.h: needs update CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.7/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:138 (message): Could NOT find RapidJSON (missing: RapidJSON_VERSION) Call Stack (most recent call first): /usr/share/cmake-3.7/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:378 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE) cmake/modules/FindRapidJSON.cmake:27 (find_package_handle_standard_args) cmake/scripts/common/Macros.cmake:315 (find_package) CMakeLists.txt:168 (core_require_dep) -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

@dbrobins thanks I'll update the patch

The 0001-fmt-does-not-have-sprintf.patch appears to be doing the wrong thing - instead of switching to fmt::format it should be adding a #include "fmt/printf.h". With the patch as it is, it doesn't convert printf-style strings, which for me meant (1) kodi.log was filled with formatting chars rather than timestamp etc., and (2) when it tried to do the database update, I got databases like 'MyVideos%d' and 'MyMusic%d'.

@tixetsal, Yes they are rapidly intorducing changes and I'm currently unable to fix them for now, wendsday I hope I can start looking into it. If just want to test a version you could use the last built kodi-git from my repo https://repo.herecura.eu [herecura]

@BlackIkeEagle It looks like you updated the package since I first encountered the difficulty building, but I still get errors while compiling. Is it on me? Thanks.

BlackIkeEagle commented on 2017-03-18 12:10 (UTC)

@texetsal, I have changes but there are some upstream issues so it might be worth while to wait a bit until they have fixed some of the issues

tixetsal commented on 2017-03-18 09:30 (UTC)

I can't build the last version. Does anyone know what's going on with this package?
