Hey, could you please enable the python3 bindings here? See my PKGBUILD, linux-gpib-svn for an example of how you might do that.

Thanks for the really quick update. (edited for style) -- This appeared.

In order to use the new version, reload all gpib modules manually.

Unfortunately it is not compatible with >= 4.15. The SVN version works but there is no stable version update yet.

Build fails with errors such as:

implicit declaration of function 'init_timer'; did you mean 'init_timers'?

As far as I can tell, this is due to the reorganization of the kernel timers API for kernel versions >= 4.15

@Foucault, you are right. On a clean machine everything works smoothly. On my work machine however for some reason this package conflicts with filesystem and the problematic "file" is /lib. Super weird. Time to get my hands dirty.

suridaj commented on 2018-01-10 16:21 (UTC)

Good point. I will try it inside a clean VM and report back.

Foucault commented on 2018-01-07 12:12 (UTC)

This should not happen, because there are no files in the package itself under /lib. Are you sure there are no leftover files from a previous package?

I am unable to install linux-gpib-dkms 4.1.0-1 built on current Arch Linux. pacman -U complains with the following error message:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
linux-gpib-dkms: /lib exists in filesystem
Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

It seems these files should go to /usr/lib instead to /lib which is a symlink to /usr/lib (at least in the current filesystem package). I "solved" this by adding the following lines to the end of package():

     cp -r "${pkgdir}/lib" "${pkgdir}/usr"
     rm -rf "${pkgdir}/lib"

It seems the problematic line is the patch line #include <linux/sched/signal.h> signal.h seems to be missing from 4.9 but seems to be required for the module to be build correctly on 4.11. Because at the moment I'm a little busy can you please try the following on LTS? * Remove linux-gpib-dkms * Download the source tarball [0] * Unpack (tar xvfz) * Edit the PKGBUILD removing line 38 (patch -Np1 -i "../linux-4.11.patch") * Make the package again (makepkg -sf) If that works then we will need a conditional define guard on the header. 0: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/linux-gpib-dkms.tar.gz

Just curious Neros, was this the latest version (4.0.4rc2-3) which includes linux-4.11.patch?
