@laichiaheng - kodi is bound to a specific version of ffmpeg which is generally older than Arch's package. We avoid incompatibilities by using that specific version (ie internal ffmpeg). Recommend that you build kodi in clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.

@kevku - I will push an update but it is throwing build errors I believe at wayland. Need to explore further but likely cannot for a while. Feedback is welcomed.

I've just disowned the package. My time has come, now it's someone else's turn ;)

It seems that fstrcmp is also a build dependency now (and not only an installation dependency, as was mentioned below), is is possible please to add it as a build dependency as well?

@martyg if you're going to post a patch don't include line breaks. Whenever I try to apply the patch its read as garbage. A for effort though.

martyg commented on 2018-08-01 02:59 (UTC)

  1. copying.txt is no longer present in the source distro (Errors the build)

  2. kodi binary will not load unless fstrcmp installed

  3. kodi binary now requires lirc library to load (No longer optional)

Patch enclosed. (This will build the Leia Alpha 3 tag) https://ptpb.pw/i23Z

Thank you for all the information, the package should work fine now.

Can confirm the LICENSE.GPL issue. The license files changed to markdown in a commit from April:

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/commit/40fe25d9c4890e6d64e74b70eecee84a82d04928

Changing LICENSE.GPL to LICENSE.md in the PKGBUILD fixed the issue.

Hi, packaging fails to me:

mv: cannot stat '/tmp/yaourt-tmp-danysk/aur-kodi-git/pkg/kodi-git/usr/share/doc/kodi/LICENSE.GPL': No such file or directory ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package_kodi-git(). Aborting... ==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build kodi-git.

Can Anybody else confirm the issue?

martyg commented on 2018-07-04 21:07 (UTC)

As mentioned by @cspack77, lirc also needs to be installed during build.

The enclosed PKGBUILD patch gives me a working Leia Alpha-2 binary with LIRC remote support. This patch also corrects my earlier issue with libcec.
