Arch Linux User Repository

@capitalaslash done

@gchamon ok I can take it.

in the meantime, added contribution from @capitalaslash, sorry for the long wait

@capitalaslash I could pass ownership to you. You could do a better job then I maintaining this package.

Magics-4.6.0-Source/src/common/Transformation.cc
Magics-4.6.0-Source/src/visualisers/SimplePolylineVisualiser.cc

are missing headers and kick the error:

"numeric_limits' is not a member of 'std'"

Please add

#include <limits>

to these files so magics++ will build.

Please have a look at

https://github.com/capitalaslash/archlinux-magics

I updated to the latest version, with improvements to the build logic, dependencies and a gcc 11 patch. Let me know how we can integrate it here

I could not build 4.5.3 with proj 8.0 as reported here, but updating to 4.6.0 worked.

adjusting PKGBUILD

pkgver=4.6.0
md5sums=('570d9888fc794b7c72c0a09fc9210dc3')

I confirm that 4.5.3 works. The following changes to PKGBUILD solved the problem for me:

I got the same error as @mpejcoch on 2020-05-15 but was successfully able to build and install version 4.5.3 downloaded here[1] and following their instructions here[2]. I hope this helps someone.

Unfortunately even the 4.3.3 version won't build.
