[SOLVED] Problem with makepkg/base-devel?
There seems to be a problem with makepkg in the base-devel I just downloaded - it doesn't seem to be extracting the downloaded source tarball, giving messages like the following:
==> Starting build()...
/home/admin/Downloads/.AUR/rosa-media-player/PKGBUILD: line 34: cd: /home/admin/Downloads/.AUR/rosa-media-player/src/rosa-media-player: No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
(there was also another problem yesterday, in which I couldn't download base-devel at all - IIRC something about a PHP signature...)

Can you provide the full output and the actual command you are using, preferrably in code tags.

This is how it goes:
gxine $ makepkg -s
==> Making package: gxine 0.5.907-2 (Fri Sep 27 18:09:29 CDT 2013)
==> Checking runtime dependencies...
==> Checking buildtime dependencies...
==> Retrieving sources...
-> Found gxine-0.5.907.tar.xz
ln: failed to create symbolic link ‘/home/admin/Downloads/.AUR/gxine/src/gxine-0.5.907.tar.xz’: Operation not permitted
==> Validating source files with md5sums...
gxine-0.5.907.tar.xz ... Passed

==> Starting build()...

Aborting...

Do you have write permissions on the src directory?

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with makepkg/base-devel?
It might have helped to start with the first error. The problem is the `ln` failure.
Can you post your fstab?

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with makepkg/base-devel?
Aha - this particular drive is in FAT32 (for Windows compatibility).
I just tried to create a link into it and couldn't ... is this not possible with FAT32?? Will it work with NTFS?

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with makepkg/base-devel?
Why will you need PKGBUILDs and related materials on a Windows machine?
NTFS does support symlinks.

Re: [SOLVED] Problem with makepkg/base-devel?
It's dual boot.
OK I'll have to move my AUR folder.
Thanks for the help!
