Arch Linux User Repository

All my packages are managed at GitHub where you can also contribute directly: https://github.com/Martchus/PKGBUILDs
There also exist a binary repository: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unofficial_user_repositories#ownstuff

Important remarks:

• The packages within the binary repository are built against the latest packages from Arch Linux and hence might not be compatible with Manjaro. This can be the cause when the Plasmoid doesn't work.
• Like with any other package a rebuild is required when the soname of a dependency like boost changes (see e.g. https://github.com/Martchus/syncthingtray/issues/98). The package in my binary repository should be rebuilt in a timely manner. I'm also sometimes updating pkgrel of the AUR package when a rebuild is required (only in accordance with Arch Linux of course, not in accordance with Manjaro).
  • The "dirty" way is forcing the installation/update (leaving syncthingtray broken until it has been rebuilt) or to uninstall syncthingtray temporarily before the update. After the update syncthingtray can be rebuilt and reinstalled again.
  • The correct solution is to use makechrootpkg which is also how official developers build their packages (and how packages in my binary repository are built).
• It is required to build dependencies (that are not provided by Arch Linux itself) before building this package. So you need to build c++utilities, qtutilities, qtforkawesome and syncthingtray in that order.
• The KDE integrations have been ported to KDE 6 but building them for KDE 5 should still work. This package does not build any KDE integrations by default because KDE 6 is now in the main repositories. To build KDE integrations for KDE 6 you need to install syncthingtray-qt6 instead of this package.
• Note that the tests of this package might fail despite there's nothing wrong (e. g. because Syncthing is just too slow and the test runs in a timeout). To ignore those false-positives, build the package with makepkg --nocheck or makechrootpkg -- --nocheck. It makes still sense to report failures. But please include the actual error message and not just the last few lines.

Hi,

there is no package for "qtforkawesome" at the moment. @Martchus

see https://github.com/Martchus/syncthingtray/issues/98

$ syncthingctl status
syncthingctl: error while loading shared libraries: libboost_filesystem.so.1.75.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

$ pacman -Q boost-libs

$ pacman -Q syncthingtray 
syncthingtray 1.1.8-1

I assume you've just ran the local -a command in some shell in some terminal. You could add the command within the PKGBUILD's check() function and also echo the environment variables. This way you would see whether it is setup as expected also in the build environment. (An AUR helper or makepkg might mess-up something here, e.g. makepkg generally sets environment variables from /etc/makepkg.conf.)

at the beginning

I've noticed that setting variables at the beginning of the file might not be reliable, at least that's my experience when using makechrootpkg (see https://github.com/hipersayanX/ArchPackages/commit/1e61856d067b5aeae6828e39e01d617661b1069e). Hence I recommend to set environment variables within the relevant functions.

I'm not sure what's wrong with my locales, it seems alright:

$ locale -a
C
en_GB.utf8
en_US.utf8
POSIX

But adding export LC_ALL=C; unset LANGUAGE at the beginning of the PKGBUILD worked, thanks!

Looks like the locale isn't setup correctly in your build environment. Does it help to put export LC_ALL=C; unset LANGUAGE into the check() function within the PKGBUILD (before the test suite is invoked)? If that's the case than the problem is likely due to an incorrect locale setup.

By the way, this is how one usually sets up the locale: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Locale#Generating_locales

Upgrading from 1.1.7-1 to 1.1.8-1 fails because the tests fail.

Package "syncthingtray" upgrade failed

If it helps, I noticed the same error trying to build this package. During the test run is the same error I got when I tried running plasmashell in a console. parsting and something about a - in a date throwing a c++utilities exception.

Thanks for the stack trace, its very useful and I guess I've already found the issue. It is not within c++utilities, though. The problem is that a parsing error isn't handled correctly.

Here's the stacktrace generated by my just-updated version of Arch. Looks like the problem is in C++ utilities:
