EDIT: the issue formerly described in this comment has been fixed upstream by pushing a new release tag. It wasn't an issue related to the AUR package. Everything works again :)

Add "git" to makedepends in the PKGBUILD for building in chroot.

@hcorion: Hi, sorry for the late response, but thanks for getting back to me and adding me as a co-maintainer! I'll get to work on adding VCS support for 0.9.4.

EDIT: Done!

Hey @HTV04, sorry for the delay, I've added you as a co-maintainer. I'm the original maintainer of melonds-git, and when I got the notification that it was orphaned I jumped on it immediately so I could have control over both melonds packages for consistency. Feel free to change it to use VCS

Hi @hcorion, I recently submitted an orphan request in an attempt to become a maintainer in order to implement the VCS building method I described below, but as soon as I saw that my request was accepted, it seems that you beat me to it.

Could you implement this building method, tagged to the latest GitHub release? Or I can create a patch that implements this if you'd like.

Have you considered using a VCS via git for the PKGBUILD? It could make building new versions much faster because only new diffs would be downloaded and built.

Hi @ckuiper sorry for taking even longer to respond.

You're totally right, for some reason I was under the impression that you had to be explicit with it, but I just tested and apparently not. So I guess it's mostly up to packager preference at that point.

You're also right that libepoxy is not yet in the stable release, I had just finished updating melonds-git and noticed the new dependency and thought I'd let you know, but I forgot to check if it was even available in the latest release face palm.

Hi! Sorry for taking a while to respond.

I was lead to believe that a package named 'melonds' will automatically imply that it provides and conflicts with itself. My testing seems to agree with this, although maybe I made a mistake?

Also looking at the source for the current release, it appears to me that libepoxy is not in the CMakeList. So I assume there is no dependency yet?

Hey there, maintainer of melonds-git here, just noticed this became a thing. Some quick notes :). It's good practice to

provides=('melonds')

conflicts=('melonds')

So that when you have multiple versions of a package (ie melonds-git and melonds) it will ensure pacman and/or AUR helpers don't try to install both versions side-by-side and provide a user-friendly error message.

In addition, melonDS now depends on libepoxy https://github.com/Arisotura/melonDS/blob/ab222ab135a76c559ef63768e8f90eca99973881/src/CMakeLists.txt#L109-L119
