Arch Linux User Repository

Please make sure you read the "How to use the AUR" wiki page before reporting issues: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_and_upgrading_packages

A binary package is also available in my kernel-lts unofficial user repository.

193 fixes the build issues.

Version 192 is out but does not build due to new issues. May be a bit until it's fixed.

You can comment out the "make htmldocs" line in the PKGBUILD and it will build. My automated builds on OBS build this way (mostly because building the full docs takes forever). The HTML docs stuff may need to be patched to get that working.

Same issue without chroot. downgrading package python-sphinx (7.2.2-1 => 7.1.2-1) fixes the problem. I can't find a patch. Easy to test by disabling build: make all.

@gnaggnoyil I'm having the same issue right now, for some reason. if you find a fix I'd love to know what it is.

I tried building this package in a clean chroot today and got the following error:

Does anyone know what was going wrong here?

@ozz, thanks for your help, but it's hard for me to find the first SEQNUM device that blocked everything.

i tried some kernels from arch archive:

linux-lts-6.1.46-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> bootable

linux-6.0.12.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> bootable

linux-5.19.13.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> bootable

linux-5.19.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> bootable

linux-5.18.16.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> unable to boot

linux-5.17.9.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> unable to boot

linux-5.16.16.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> unable to boot

linux-lts-5.15.94-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> unable to boot

linux-lts-5.10.90-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst --> unable to boot

by the way, i installed arch in a usb3.0 pendrive, will it be the reason that my pc doesnt boot with older kernels?

Update:

installed a new Arch on local HDD and then got the complete same result:

kernel >= 5.19 ( bootable )

kernel <= 5.18 ( unable to boot )

@xx777 that udev debug looks good but it scrolled past what we need to see. On the screenshot everything is waiting for SEQNUM 1488 but we can't see what that is and there may be even more things before that one that 1488 is blocked on. What you're looking for is the first SEQNUM device startup that is causing everything after that to get blocked. I usually record video to see what is happening (or redirect the console to a serial port but that's a lot more work).

@ozz, thanks for your response.

boot parameter "quiet" enabled

I have a LinuxMint on the another partition, and it can boot with kernel 5.10. and 5.15., so i think my gpu (AMD R7 240) is compatible with older kernels.

My Arch works fine with linux-lts 6.1.45-1.

@xx777 Do you have "quiet" enabled in your kernel boot parameters? If so, at the GRUB prompt push e and remove it to see if it will print any more information. You can also try adding "udev.log-priority=debug" to the boot parameters as well.

Another thing to try is disconnect every device you can from your system them try to boot. Sometimes the system is actually booting but the video is frozen so if you can, try a different video output.

Does booting a completely different kernel work? Like the stock one or LTS.
