Hi, I've gotten a report that DirectFB is not building for my Links-g-directfb AUR.

Can someone please look into this?

Can confirm @cambid's error. Looks like fluxcomp has very little support in the package ecosystem: https://repology.org/project/fluxcomp/versions Even Arch doesn't have a package for it (which says a lot).

After the latest commit 12d82d0c724f this package doesn't build anymore. The compile process fails with the following message:

[...]
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
checking for man2html... no
checking for fluxcomp... no
configure: error: 
*** DirectFB compilation requires fluxcomp ***

Unless you are compiling from a distributed tarball you need fluxcomp
available from git://git.directfb.org/git/directfb/core/flux installed
in your PATH.

Sorry, currently, I no longer use arch. It is only a link to update, so feel free to fix it yourself. Thx lks

raf431 the server is fine, but you need to modify the link source=(http://sources.webos-ports.org/downloads/DirectFB-$pkgver.tar.gz) to source=(http://sources.webos-ports.org/DirectFB-$pkgver.tar.gz)

i think the server is down
