I did a one-time overhaul of the PKGBUILD, but I am not going to maintain it continuously because there is already hidapi in the official repositories.

I'm not an Arch user anymore and lack the time to maintain packages. Feel free to adopt the package and implement the proposed feedback.

The package is building again. Thanks for the notice @odysseywestra.

Package is not building. I'm getting this error:

The package is now up to date. Unfortunately, I had to introduce an epoch to fix broken version monotonicity.

EDIT: introduced epoch

the git repository of hidapi has been moved to https://github.com/libusb/hidapi

this version builds the "test GUI" which uses the Fox Toolkit. I'm happy to entertain discussion about not doing this by default, but this package has had the test gui for a long time.

as for systemd-tools, I think that's to fulfill the udev dependency. However this already depends on libusb which requires libsystemd, which depends on libudev. I'm not sure if that's quite enough, as much as the actual udev system. But I think it's going to be rare that you're installing hidapi-git without udev in place somehow already.

is there a strong need to drop either of these? They appear to have moderate logic behind them

Hey, sorry to bother again. AFAIK, fox isn't a dependency for hidapi? I am also not sure why systemd-tools is there. Thanks :)

Hey, could you add provides/conflicts?

conflicts=('hidapi') provides=('hidapi')

Hi there; could you please add armv6h to the arch array ? It does compile well (i'm trying to use it on raspberrypi). Thanks
