@ava1ar

It's to allow for the RELRO and PIE build flags to be enabled. It's part of the Go package guidelines and creates more secure binary executables.

With these flags being the Arch Linux standard it's indeed a bit weird that these flags aren't enabled in the standard go package but that's an upstream issue.

Why this depends on go-pie, not regular go? Builds and works with regular go fine.

Right, thanks, I'll fix that.

Bit weird that git isn't mentioned as a (opt) depend for go then though. Seems like the better solution.

It requires git to build because go get uses git internally.

When I run in a clean chroot, for example:

go: missing Git command. See <https://golang.org/s/gogetcmd>
package github.com/atotto/clipboard: exec: "git": executable file not found 
in $PATH
go: missing Git command. See <https://golang.org/s/gogetcmd>
package github.com/dustin/go-humanize: exec: "git": executable file not 
found in $PATH
go: missing Git command. See <https://golang.org/s/gogetcmd>
package github.com/gizak/termui/v3: exec: "git": executable file not found 
in $PATH
package github.com/gizak/termui/v3/widgets: cannot find package 
"github.com/gizak/termui/v3/widgets" in any of:
        /usr/lib/go/src/github.com/gizak/termui/v3/widgets (from $GOROOT)
        /build/pkgtop/src/gopath/src/github.com/gizak/termui/v3/widgets 
(from $GOPATH)
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

@BrianAllred This package doesn't use git, it just gets the latest release archive from the GitHub page.

git isn't part of base-devel, so it needs to be in the make deps. Fails to build in a clean chroot, otherwise.

@uffe Thanks for the tip, they must have changed the tag commit

pkgtop 2.0-1 PKGBUILD has checksum mismatch

@KeyLo99

Sorry, I got notified about this comment but then sort of forgot about it.

For your git package the pkgver will automatically get updated when running makepkg but you'll still have to update the PKGBUILD (and .SRCINFO) manually for it to show up on the AUR page. You'll have to think about how often you'll want to do this but generally I find updating for new releases and app breaking bugfixes to be a good policy.

If a development package breaks on someone's system it's their responsibility to manually update/reinstall it to make sure the issue hasn't been fixed already.

For this package it's all manual and It'll really only update for new releases, and hotfixes. I basically update as fast as I'm notified through github of new releases and am able to update things.
