We've moved to the newly-stable 4.20.0 branch. There are also other changes:

  • stubdom is fixed by disabling the vtmp and vtpmmgr components. This gets rid of a few source files and our remaining patches.
  • Debug files are only removed if the debug option is not set in makepkg.cfg (or the PKGBUILD itself)
  • pygrub has been removed
  • optdepends are adjusted for the upcoming xen-grub split package for the various Xen flavored builds.

If you're still using pygrub note that it is deprecated. The solution is to build PV grub instead, which used to be in AUR but is now missing. I am asking a couple questions on the mailing list, and I intend to put my current build of xen-grub (which supersedes xen-pvhgrub) on AUR as soon as possible. If you need to build it before that occurs, you can find it in my PKGBUILD repo.

EDIT: 4.20.0-2 adds support for the xen-edk2 package, which has a fixed UEFI for xen

That's not xen's fault; that's the fault of whatever package put those files there. However, if you were installing xen and iasl at the same time, then this error would appear, even though it has to do with iasl, not xen. Can you post the output of yaourt -Qo /usr/bin/iasl ?

@deviousway, After googling around and sourcing some info from gentoo's bug i've managed to find the problem or atleast a workaround/solution to compiling Xen. Just like you i have a non-english system locale. sv_SE.UTF-8 to be exact. but by doing LANG=C makepkg I'm able to compile it successfully. Maybe the maintainer of this PKGBUILD should add LANG=C to the package() part that initiates the build to avoid this problem. The big problem however seems to reside in python2 which pukes on non-english locales. But python2 afaik is not maintained anymore with python3 being the replacement, so might be hard to get it fixed.

Me too. I need manually create the folder

I thought the var-lib-xenstored.mount was supposed to fix this issue...? Or does this issue still occur for anyone else?

zootboy commented on 2013-01-12 22:00 (UTC)

It seems that, at least on my system, the package does not create the /var/lib/xen folder. This causes some nasty errors (a la https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xen/+bug/949974). Simply creating the empty directory fixes the issue, though. sudo mkdir /var/lib/xen

Sorry, forgot to post the new patch. Anyway, fixed.

Download the tarball (or use yaourt to download the files then press Ctrl-C to break out of it - the files will be under something like /tmp/yaourt-tmp-<username>/aur-xen/) If you download the tarball, extract the files into a directory. Go into the directory and download the two files I mentioned into the directory, overwriting the old PKGBUILD file. You can then run "makepkg -i" to build and install

<deleted-account> commented on 2013-01-11 06:35 (UTC)

Can you suggest how to put your patch please. I use "yaourt"
