@pierrec - I disabled building of documentation because of the existance of the xen-docs package and because some people want to run their hypervisors very "light", without optional extras such as documentation. If that package doesn't get updated, and is still not orphaned, what I may have to do is add in the relevant changes into my PKGBUILD and just comment them out, so someone can always enable them if needed. @AuthurBorsboom - Will be today; I had a small checklist of things that I wanted to cover, which includes the ones you've mentioned, and i'm about ready to push the updated files.

Hi Kantras, AFAIK the following needs to be updated. - use of $srcdir - patch for gnutls Do you have an estimation of when you are able to publish the new PKGBUILD?

Thanks for this package. But why do you --disable-docs? I suppose you do that to avoid extra deps? xen-docs is 4.4 so not that useful :p

Any news on that updated package? For some reason I can't get sheep_42's edits to work.

Thanks guys. Both Xen 4.5 and 4.4.1 were installed successfully with the patch.

sorry writing a patch in a comment was not a good idee ... The patch is simple, add this two lines at the end of the PKGBUILD: source+=('gnutls-3.4.0.patch::http://git.alpinelinux.org/cgit/aports/plain/main/xen/gnutls-3.4.0.patch?id=628f27939412a7d6fb67734bd644119a1f49463a') sha256sums+=('e25d38376e22f6f935d2c0ce1b9d6e6b47ff261b5e6056bc3b47168739d7a992') And in the prepare() function add this line (just after # Compile Patches): patch -p1 -i $srcdir/gnutls-3.4.0.patch

Sorry sheep_42, patching fails with malformed error at this line: '3f0af16958c3e057b9baa5afc47050d9adf7dd553274dd97ae4f35938fefb568' I could try editing PKGBUILD myself if I knew what goes where. Thanks for helping!

tr0llalert, the gnutls fix patch looks correct (and one similair have been sent upstream) so I would use it instead of disable-qemu-traditional.

ps: Any help/procedure in applying libgnutls patch would be great as well. Thanks!
