[solved] vice-gnomeui 2.3-1 - ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

pe7er · 2012-07-28 23:22:59

I hope that this is the right place to ask for help regarding PKGBUILD errors from software downloaded via AUR.

I was trying to compile & install VICE (a Commodore 64 emulator) on my PC from http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=13418&detail=1

First I got 2 dependency warnings for "audiofile" & "esound", but I was able to install "audiofile" using pacman, and to compile/install esound from AUR.

However, when I tried makepkg for "vice-gnomeui 2.3-1" I got the following error:

I am not experienced with building from source & solving compiling errors.
How can I solve this problem and compile/install Vice?
Thanks in advance!

It needs to be patched to build against the current ffmpeg. Try googling, maybe there's a patch somewhere.

grimi · 2012-07-29 05:21:50

Hi, try installig this: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24545

pe7er · 2012-07-30 11:18:44

Thank you both for your help!

I tried to makepkg from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=24545 but I get the following error:

==> ERROR: ffmpeg.patch was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

The AUR page of vice-gtkglext 2.3-3 lists "ffmpeg.patch" under sources, but it isn't hyperlinked & I couldn't install it with pacman.

Where can I find ffmpeg.patch ?

When I searched in AUR on VICE I found some other VICE packages as well: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?O … h=Go&PP=50
How do you know which version to use?
I think I would try the one with the highest version number, the most votes, and one without "orphan" as maintainer...

I found https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 7#p1022487
How can I install or apply that patch?

you need to download the tarball: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vi/v … ext.tar.gz

pe7er · 2012-07-30 21:37:34

Great, thanks!

The error with the missing ffmpeg.patch has been solved when using the tarball.

Unfortunately I got another error:

I uploaded new release, with disabled ffmpeg.Try now:
http://downloads.sourceforge.net/projec … 2.3.tar.gz

pe7er · 2012-07-31 08:21:43

Thank you very much!

Compiling the source code seemed to take much longer then before.
Unfortunately I got another error:

The CBM.ttf font file exists in /home/pe7er/build/vice/vice-2.3/data/fonts/CBM.ttf
And (as test) I changed the permissions on the ~/.fonts/ folder from 0755 to 0777
But I get the same error as above.

How can I solve the problem?

grimi · 2012-07-31 17:44:20

Hi again. I disabled buggy part in Makefile. Now CBM.ttf font must be copied manually to ~/.fonts,
but package building process ends without problems..

pe7er · 2012-07-31 19:35:05

Now it works ok! Thanks!
I was able to build the package without any problems...

Your message after installing

==> To use the CBM font in gui, enter: 
==> cp /usr/lib/vice/fonts/CBM.ttf ~/.fonts

is self explanatory.
Then only "x64" to start VICE as c64, attached a disk image (Arkanoid ;-) and heard the wicked intro tune, so the sound was working fine too!

Thanks again!
