rust package does not build when built with makepkg

kmille · 2026-01-24 09:43:53

Hey,
I'm trying to adopt this AUR package: https://gitlab.com/cryptocam/cryptocam-companion-cli

I can simple build it by `git clone` + `cargo build --release`

But when I run it with `makepkg`, it failes. I also tried to reuse the excact environment variables:

PKGBUILD:

pkgver() {
cd ${pkgname}
printf "r%s.%s" "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short=7 HEAD)"
}
#prepare() {

build() {

pwd
cargo build --release

}
check() {
export RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=stable
cargo test --frozen --all-features
}
package() {
_repodir=$srcdir/$pkgname
# _binsrc=$_repodir/target/release/cryptocam
# _bintarget=$pkgdir/usr/bin/$_pkgname
# install -Dm755 $_binsrc $_bintarget
}

That PKGBUILD gives the impression you looked at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Rust_p … guidelines but didn't implement it.

Arch package guidelines are our equivalent of "best practices" for creating packages / writing PKGBUILDs .
Please adjust your PKGBUILD to comply with that page, then try again.

loqs · 2026-01-25 00:00:14

Please use code tags not quote tags for commands and their outputs. You need to either disable LTO for the PKGBUILD or add `CFLAGS+=' -ffat-lto-objects'` for the static library the package is building.

Thank you! Fixed it by adding `CFLAGS+=' -ffat-lto-objects'`.

But tbh: I still don't know why this happened and how reading the wiki package could have helped me solving this.

Lone_Wolf · 2026-01-25 11:28:40

how reading the wiki package could have helped me solving this.

The package guidelines on the wiki describe best practices developed by arch users. They help a lot to avoid common pitfalls and following them usually improves the quality of a package substantially.

I wasn't willing to look at the error/test build the package until the PKGBUILD was improved, maybe I should have stated that.

P.S.
I just noticed you uploaded a new version to aur. It looks good to me.

makedepends=('git' 'cargo' 'gcc' 'ffmpeg')

gcc is covered by base-devel and ffmpeg is in depends.

the provides/conflicts should be the non git version only
