Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

I have a fresh arch installation (installed a few days ago) and building packages worked fine. But today i wanted to install a few programs with yaourt and from the abs (wine,xbmc-git,archey3,zathura-git) and makepkg fails everytime. The programs are always compiled without problems.

...
==> Entering fakeroot environment...
/usr/bin/makepkg: line 1466: cannot create temp file for here-document: Success
/usr/bin/makepkg: line 1475: cannot create temp file for here-document: Success
==> Starting build()...
==> Connecting to GIT server....
Cloning into 'archey3'...
error: Unable to create /tmp/yaourt-tmp-sysrmr/aur-archey3/src/archey3/.git/HEAD
warning: unable to unlink /tmp/yaourt-tmp-sysrmr/aur-archey3/src/archey3/.git/HEAD.lock: Success
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build archey3.

The makepkg errors (line 1466,1475) are always there. The Errors after Starting build() always change but always something with file permissions.

/usr/bin/makepkg Line 1466 is the same like Line 1475:

eval i=\"$(sed 's/^\(['\''"]\)\(.*\)\1$/\2/' <<< "${i%%+([[:space:]])}")\"

Wine also has the error: /usr/bin/makepkg: line 1553: cannot create temp file for here-document: Success
Line 1553:

eval file=\"$(sed 's/^\(['\''"]\)\(.*\)\1$/\2/' <<< "$file")\"

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

Hi,

have you checked whether you've got enought free disk space in /tmp? I remember having had a similar error once, and deleting some unused files plus clearing my package cache (yaourt -Scc) fixed the problem.

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

Lets take a guess...   /tmp is mounted noexec?

Does it work without yaourt?    Or building outside of tmp?

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

have enough free space.

no /tmp is mounted without noexec. also tried with and without own tmpfs partition.

no doesnt work with yaourt and also same error if i build the package in my home dir.

deleted the yaourt tmp directory and deleting /usr/bin/makepkg and reinstalling also not helped.
i downgraded sed (was updated 1 or 2 days ago), because it was used in the makepkg lines with the error. but the error is still there

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

fakeroot seems to be the problem here. Those errors make no sense. Does something as simple as the following work?

$ fakeroot cat <<EOF
hello world
EOF

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

The fakeroot example works without problems. But yes it seems fakeroot is the problem. Disabling fakeroot in makepkg makes it work. Removing and reinstalling fakeroot doesn't help.

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

Same here. Whenever I try to build any package the error occur. An example with the dropbox AUR package:

/usr/bin/makepkg: line 1915: 24182 Bus error               (core dumped) ${COMPRESSXZ[@]:-xz -c -z -}
bsdtar: Write error
==> ERROR: Failed to create package file.
==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build dropbox.

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

You say 'same here' but you have a different error. Did disabling fakeroot in makepkg work?
What's the output of 'df -h' and 'df -ih'?
Are you using some AUR helper?

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

Sorry, i said that because I'm having the same problem that is not being able to build a package.
So, I have plenty of space in my tmp, disabling fakeroot changed nothing.
What do you mean with AUR helper?

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

I'm asking how exactly are you building the package, what command do you use? Pure makepkg, yaourt or something else?

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

Stop. Using. Yaourt.

Your errors are fairly clear that you are out of disk.

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

Same problem today with freshly installed Antergos.
Try:

pacman -Sy base-devel

I don't think it's the problem here but it's possible to get the same errors even with lots of disk space if you're out of inodes.  You can use 'df -i' to verify

That is actually poor advice.  One should not use the -Sy without u.

Edit:  BTW, welcome to the Arch Linux forums.  Just be aware that you are not running a pure Arch installation, so we won't really be able to provide support.

Re: Cant build packages anymore. Makepkg fails.

In my case, I had `nosuid` set in my /etc/fstab entry for tmpfs on /tmp. Resolved the issue, thanks since the `noexec` comment in this thread hinted me in the right direction.

Sorry, did *adding* or *removing* nosuid resolve your issue?
