I used Static_Rocket's fix as well, but slightly adjusted with -type f. To recap what worked for me: I added the following line to the build function in the PKGBUILD, right before the call to make:

find . -type f -exec sed -i -e 's/\\#include/#include/g' {} \;

Hope this helps others who are stuck until this gets resolved in this package or upstream.

@nipsky Hey dude, I noticed some people have misinterpreted my quick fix so I narrowed it down and submitted a patch to the package maintainer. Assuming you applied it correctly, please link the full output of makepkg (preferably via a pastebin) and I'll try to help as best I can. Otherwise please wait a few days while the maintainer tests & implements my patch and then give it another shot.

Hi, I applied Static_Rockets fix, but compiling fails for me now with a different error:

A little more detective work has allowed me to narrow this problem down to this line in these Makefiles:

./gst-libs/gst/pbutils/Makefile.in:545:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")
./gst-libs/gst/audio/Makefile.in:547:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")
./gst-libs/gst/app/Makefile.in:476:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")
./gst-libs/gst/video/Makefile.in:556:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")
./gst-libs/gst/rtsp/Makefile.in:520:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")
./gst-libs/gst/interfaces/Makefile.in:554:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")
./gst/tcp/Makefile.in:474:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")
./gst/encoding/Makefile.in:496:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")
./gst/playback/Makefile.in:572:enum_headers = $(foreach h,$(glib_enum_headers),\n\#include \"$(h)\")

For some reason the escape character is being interpreted as literal in these makefiles so when glib-mkenums makes the required files it carries this invalid character. I suppose this should be reported upstream.

@matbonn you have to add the find command provided from @Static_Rocket inside of the PKGBUILD file, inside the build function one line above the make command. Like this it worked for me.

THX @Static_Rocket for the dirty fix!

@warsh - So I went to /tmp/trizen-username/ and ran this "sudo find . -exec sed -i -e 's/\#include/#include/g' {} \;" all I got was ..:not a regular file

I ran the above just after it fails and then type "Y" for try again hoping it would use the newly modded files. What did I do wrong? Thanks

To be fair I don't think my error is the same https://pastebin.com/WB8BgW53

@Static_Rocket Can confirm that the quick and dirty slap fixed the compilation issue. Thank you :-)

Yeah, this package is foobared at the moment. Apparently all the files in the package that are auto-generated by glib-mkenums have include statements preceded by a backslash that will make the compiler go apeshit.

Quick and dirty fix: Slap a find . -exec sed -i -e 's/\\#include/#include/g' {} \; right before the make command in the build function.

Hi, i'm unable to build gstreamer0.10-base. The build always fail with a bunch of error. I made a pastebin ( https://pastebin.com/8kagmiiW ) , but the step to reproduce are fairly simple :

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/gstreamer0.10-base && cd gstreamer0.10-base/ && makepkg -si --noconfirm
