[SOLVED] Recipe for target 'src/Interface/openxcom-ComboBox.o' failed

Question

I've been having some problems with installing openxcom, most of which appear to come from a problem with yaml-cpp 0.5.2-2, and thus, the git file in the AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openxcom-git/) was updated with a rollback yaml-cpp.
When I tried to build this package, there was an error involving some recipe.
CXX src/Interface/openxcom-ComboBox.o
src/Interface/ComboBox.cpp: In member function ‘size_t OpenXcom::ComboBox::getHoveredListIdx() const’:
src/Interface/ComboBox.cpp:245:9: error: comparison between signed and unsigned integer expressions [-Werror=sign-compare]
if (-1 == ret)

After finding this post, I think it may have something to do with a header file that is missing, but I'm not sure.
Thank you for your time.

Answer 1

Mmm, the git package (maintained by me) frequently fails due to warnings since it's a developmental package. You can override the warnings by changing enable_werror to no in configure.ac (before you run autogen.sh in the prepare function).
sed -i 's:werror=yes:werror=no:' configure.ac
Should do it.
EDIT: I'd avoid the -git package for the time being, seems like a lot of stuff isn't getting installed correctly at the moment. I'll try to fix it up and upload a new PKGBUILD tomorrow.
