  1. What?! How is that even possible. Did fuck up somewhere? This is the first time I've had problems building an package.

    How is it even possible that it messed up by putting more in the package?? What was in there???

    (The smaller one that is installed is correct and working, in contrast to the larger one which wasn't working and was throwing all kinds of errors.)

  2. I recently tried to compile #CDE desktop env on #ArchLinux using #aur. I wanted to play with it out of nostalgia (we had CDE on some machines at university).

    No dice, I always run into a compilation error somewhere half way through #makepkg 😩

  3. A first little release for alpm-types, a crate with basic types for #ALPM based software (e.g. package managers, repository managers, etc.) such as #pacman and #makepkg 🎉

    crates.io/crates/alpm-types

    More additions will follow as we are targeting a file specification and parser 🛠️

    #archlinux #rustlang

  4. Started with a set of projects to improve #repod with the help of the #rustlang type system.
    I'm sure there will also be a use-case for #makepkg though.

    #archlinux #packaging #python

  5. just found out that #makepkg has an option in /etc/makepkg.conf to force 'make' to use '-j'
  6. I used git to clone GNU IceCat from the AUR and then makepkg. After what seemed like 7 days :) it timed out at the end for the install when I was not at my computer to enter the admin password. Can anyone tell me if I can install from the compiled that is still local or do I have to start over? Not finding answer via searching. #arch #pacman #makepkg #linux
