[SOLVED] Freebasic on AUR

Hi, is anyone able to download freebasic from AUR? It appears to be the only way to install freebasic on this system...
(it says target not found)

Congratulations!
I have a couple of questions:
-can I upload it to the AUR?
No, you should not upload a duplicate package to the AUR. Instead, you should post a link to whatever you needed to do to fix the package already on the AUR in its comments. If you feel so inclined, you should email the maintainer and ask for them to orphan the package or update it. If after two weeks they do not reply, you should post to the [aur-general] mailing list asking for it to be orphaned. You can then take over maintainership of it and upload your changes.
- apparently these are the dependencies:
gcc-multilib gcc-libs-multilib binutils-multilib libtool-multilib lib32-glibc libxpm lib32-ncurses
However, I'm pretty sure 32bit users need to install gcc-libs,  binutils etc. rather than their "multilib" equivalents.  How can I make different dependencies for different architectures? Thanks
This can be done multiple ways, but the concept is always the same.
If both the x86 and the x64 builds of the package have some dependencies in common, you should list those first like so:
depends=('foo' 'bar')
Then, you add arch-specific depends in the following manner:
[[ "$CARCH" == 'i686' ]] && depends+=('fu')
[[ "$CARCH" == 'x86_64' ]] && depends+=('lib32-fu')
If all the dependencies are platform specific, forgo the original depends array and remove the pluses from the following statements. For example
[[ "$CARCH" == 'i686' ]] && depends=('foo' 'bar')
[[ "$CARCH" == 'x86_64' ]] && depends=('lib32-foo' 'lib32-bar')
If you have other questions about how to write PKGBUILDs, please take a look at the wiki, it has a very thorough article.
All the best,
-HG

    Put the rpm.zip in the oracle-xe directory extracted from the AUR tarball. Then makepkg should work.

  • [Solved] Python: Creating AUR package, binary can't find python module

    I'm building a PKGBUILD for PyLotRO for the AUR and I'm using a Debian package.  I tried just copying the content of the data.tar.gz to the filesystem assuming the directory structure is the same for the packages but apparently it is not.  At least I'm figuring this is a filesystem problem but I don't know enough about python to be sure.  When I start the program, this is what I'm getting:
    pylotro
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/usr/bin/pylotro", line 31, in <module>
    import PyLotROLauncher.Runner
    ImportError: No module named PyLotROLauncher.Runner
    I can see the file in the package that (I would think) would be the responsible module:
    /usr/share/pyshared/PyLotROLauncher/Runner.py
    So I'm thinking the python package must store modules in a different location?????
    The package requires: 4suite, python, and pyqt.  Any thoughts about what do I need to do here??

  • [SOLVED] Archiso : installing AUR packages on a live image

    Hi all,
    I'm quite an arch newbie, I'm trying to setup a live USB stick, with the help of archiso. My goal is to finally get an "audio oriented" system (with jack, ardour, qsampler, and so more...).
    During the setup everything was working very well, until I tried to add some AUR packages to the install.
    On the arch website, I found this tip, which gave me a great hope about this.
    I'm not so familiar with Arch package management, but ok, I try to make a test : adding the "qsampler" AUR package. It needs "linuxsampler", "qt4", and "liblscp" as dependencies. "linuxsampler" and "qt4" are official packages, so I just have to add them to packages.both in the archiso working directory. "liblscp" is an AUR package (with no dependency); so there is 2 AUR packages to install : "liblscp", and "qsampler".
    So I create a directory tree like described in the tip, download the two build packages from AUR, and for each of them I do (something) like described there :
    # tar -xvf tarball_filename.tar.gz
    # cd tarball_filename
    # makepkg --asroot
    # mv *.xz ..
    # cd ..
    # rm -r tarball_filename{,.tar.gz}
    And then:
    # repo-add customrepo.db.tar.gz *.xz
    (I'm staying as root because it's red written to stay as root for the image creation. I think it's stupid, but people make stupid things when they are desesperate. Sorry I didn't take the time to test the code above again, it's only memory, but it was very similar)
    I did the same for both architectures (i686 and x86_64), so that my custom repo looks like this:
    ~/liveusb/customrepo # ls -R
    i686 x86_64
    ./i686:
    customrepo.db customrepo.db.tar.gz liblscp-0.5.6-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz qsampler-0.2.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    ./x86_64:
    customrepo.db customrepo.db.tar.gz liblscp-0.5.6-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz qsampler-0.2.3-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
    Oops... I just noticed I did wrong for i686 machines, but it doesn't matter for the moment, since I'm working on an x86_64 machine.
    As explained in the tip, I add the following lines to pacman.conf (in the archiso working directory):
    [customrepo]
    SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
    Server = file:///my/path/to/customrepo/$arch
    From my point of view, at this point, the USB stick is ready to be updated:
    ~/liveusb # ./build.sh -v
    and then (with /dev/sdf as my usb stick device):
    ~/liveusb # dd if=out/archlinux-2014.10.01-dual.iso of=/dev/sdf
    But when I boot on the USB stick, there's no trace of qsampler (linuxsampler, however, is present).
    Since it happened, I'm feeling like a lost, lonely man, on a desert island... Thinking about the "why", the "how"..., the meaning of life..., of package management... all this stuff
    I'm sure I did something wrong about the "custom repository", and the main reason is I don't deeply understand all the steps about this; that's why I'm looking for help
    Any idea?
    Many thanks
    Last edited by yolenoyer (2014-10-02 09:16:57)

    Thank you for the reply,
    I think I did a more trivial mistake :
    With archiso, the packages are automatically installed, from a package list file called "packages.both", and "packages.x86_64", "packages.i686" for architecture dependent packages. But they only use common repos by default. The "'qsampler" is not in official repos (that's why I choosed this one for my question).
    So, ok, I setup a common repo (with some mistakes but it was working), BUT...
    I just forgot to put the package name in the packages.both file...
    So, now that I did it, I just have an error about the package architecture, which I think possible to fix, just by rebuilding the common repo in a correct manner:
    ~/liveusb # ./build -v
    warning: vlc-2.1.5-3 is up to date -- reinstalling
    warning: mplayer-37224-2 is up to date -- reinstalling
    error: failed to prepare transaction (package architecture is not valid)
    :: package qsampler-0.2.3-1-x86_64 does not have a valid architecture
    ==> ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root
    Trilby wrote:Also, does this need to be a static iso image - is there a reason not to just do a persistent usb install?
    About the static iso image : the idea of building an iso image with all my personnal tools and config already installed on it is very pleasant to me, including the fact that you can burn it on a CD as well. The persistent acpect would be pleasant too, but in a secondary way.
    While I'm writing this message I really understand a bit more about all of this, since yesterday... Sometimes, simply posting a message in forums helps you to understand your own problem, because you have to be clear and concise!

  • [SOLVED] Shoes in AUR?

    Hi,
    I hope that this is the right place for my question :-\
    I'm trying to install shoes from AUR ($ yaourt -S shoes).
    When I do I get:
    Validating source files with md5sums...

    ==> Restart building shoes ? [y/N]
    I understand that shoes is orphaned and the old website is outdated. So I tried installing from source (http://shoes.heroku.com/).
    However, running the script gives a lot of dependency errors, such as missing libjpeg (which *is* installed on my system). Building instructions are given for Fedora, Ubuntu and Debian only.
    So I'm stuck and hoping to get some help here.
    Thanks,

  • [SOLVED] Unrelated Issue - AUR PKGBUILD updated, but not 'pkg'.tar.gz

    Hi all,
    I noticed that qbzr had become unmaintained and in fact wouldn't install via the AUR PKGBUILD file as the source download link had become obsolete.
    I took ownership of the package, then downloaded, updated, targz'd and submitted the new archive. However, it still doesn't seem to be quite right.
    If I download the PKGBUILD , I can now makepkg and then pacman -U without trouble. (v0.18)
    However, using yaourt - yaourt gets the version info etc from the PKGBUILD file I think, as it displays the intended version correctly (0.18). However it then downloads qbzr.tzr.gz, within which is the PKGBUILD file of version (0.16).
    I feel I must have missed something, but I can't figure out how when I submitted qbzr.tar.gz AUR was able to correctly extract the PKGBUILD file for display but not provide the correct qbzr.tar.gz
    Perhaps there is a lag in file propagation that I have been previously unaware of?
    Cheers

    there's nothing wrong with the tarball, so i'm not sure why you think it's not an issue/bug/problem/etc with yaourt..
    $ wget http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qbzr/qbzr.tar.gz

  • [SOLVED] Is using AUR safe? (particularly using yaourt )

    Hi,
    I've been using AUR to compile certain packages, such as psad, lynis, and I often use youart to achieve that.
    I recognize there's an array of hashes in PKGBUILD which ensures the integrity of downloaded files,
    but I don't see any mechanism to ensure the PKGBUILD is intact during transfer, unlike official packages
    which are signed by keys.
    So are you guys concerned about PKGBUILD being corrupted or modified, and as a conseqence leading your
    system compromised?

    but I don't see any mechanism to ensure the PKGBUILD is intact during transfer, unlike official packages
    which are signed by keys.
    So are you guys concerned about PKGBUILD being corrupted or modified, and as a conseqence leading your
    system compromised?
    If you're really that concerned about PKGBUILDs being intact when you install something from the AUR, you should be checking the PKGBUILD yourself.

  • [solved] list all aur packages installed

    Hi,
    I'm looking a comman which list all AUR packages installed on my system. Man yaourt or man pacman don't help me (but maybe I missed something).
    Is it possible to list these AUR packages ?

    yaourt -Q | grep local/
    Works for me. I'm sure someone will have a better solution though.

  • [SOLVED]Intel XDK AUR package is not running

    Hi,
    I have installed Intel-XDK from AUR:
    https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/intel-xdk/
    The install completed successfully but when i tried to launch the program by typing intel-xdk or intel-xdk.sh nothing happens. And there is no error message. This is freshly installed 64 bit ArchLinux with PekWM.

    Thank you Lone_Wolf for alerting me about the matter.  I think it is a problem for some other programs too because someone created an AUR package just for this symlink:
    https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libudev.so.0/
    When the package didn't run without any error message i emailed the AUR maintainer. He quickly replied and said he is a developer at Intel and will look into matter when he got free time. I searched the internet but couldn't find a lot of information about it. Then i stumbled upon a thread on Manjaro(https://forum.manjaro.org/index.php?topic=11695.0) forums. In their system AUR package was giving the error of libudev.so.0 not found and suggested to install AUR package libudev.so.0. Installed that and program worked.
    What can we do about that beside that symlinking?
    Later edit: Also i stumbled upon some post that Intel-Xdk Linux install script looks for a package named gtk2. If your distro's gtk2 package is not named gtk2 it is not installing. Someone created a dummy gtk2 package and fooled the program to run.
    Why install scripts from big companies always have problems on Linux? Until today there isn't even one package that haven't given me problems. On the other side installed a lot of Linux distros and %99 of time it went flawlessly.

    Yes pacman -Sy is no good habit. I use it because I'd like to experience the newest version of a software. (This won't break the target software, right?) As a remedy I frequently run pacman -Syu when the system is free.

    Hi!
    makepkg does no dependency resolving (correct me pls, if I'm wrong). It is solely responsible for checking dependencies specified in the PKGBUILD and building the package. However if a dependency is missing you have to install it by hand with pacman, like you did.
