@codazoa I had the same problem.

After running ddd using the terminal ($ ddd) I had multiple warning messages saying something like : "Cannot convert string "...." to type FontStruct"

After a couple of research and spending hours to find a fix, I've finally found this : "Some programs only work with bitmap fonts. Two major packages with bitmap fonts are available, xorg-fonts-75dpi and xorg-fonts-100dpi." (From the AUR : https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/xorg)

So basically, you need to run this command :

$ xdpyinfo | grep resolution

And get the xorg-fonts-XXdpi (with XX = 75 or 100) that is closer to the output value of the command above.

You can install a xorg-fonts package using pacman : 

$ sudo pacman -S xorg-fonts-100dpi

Once you've done that, run : 

$ sudo pacman -S gdb

Then reboot and everything should work.

getting:

Validating source files with sha1sums...

I personally think that package maintainers must check for wrong signatures more often ... Since august we receive messages

-> Found ddd-3.4.1.tar.gz ==> Validating source files with sha1sums... ddd-3.4.1.tar.gz ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! -> error making: ddd-exit status 1

So when is that going to be solved?

@HurricanePootis @Dominiquini fixed, thanks

The signature for the source appears to be incorrect!

Hello, I have some recommendations for this package:

  1. Switch to SPDX-compliant license()
  2. Add in all the dependencies listed by namcap
  3. Install the desktop file that is part of the source distribution.

Here is the patch file:

it fails sha1sums check

dvk commented on 2024-08-22 08:13 (UTC)

It seems that the sha1sum in PKGBUILD is incorrect for version 3.4.1.

ostroffjh commented on 2024-07-10 19:06 (UTC)

Shouldn't this be unflagged for out of date? 3.4.0 is the latest, as far as I can tell.

micwoj92 commented on 2023-10-12 02:39 (UTC)

For the future, you should reset pkgrel to 1 when bumping pkgver.
