[SOLVED] ttf-google-fonts-git won't install: Zstd decompression failed

When I try to install ttf-google-gonts-git, I have an issue. After the package is created, pacman reports the following issue (note that since a package on my computer requires adobe-source-code-pro-fonts (which is provided by ttf-google-fonts-git) I need to install that in order to remove ttf-google-fonts-git to keep the dependency satisfied):

Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

I ran

badblocks -v /dev/sdc3

and it reported no bad blocks, so I don't believe that my hard drive is the issue. Reinstalling zstd didn't help either. I also cannot exclude Piazzolla Black from the fonts by editing the PKGBUILD file.

Is anyone else having this issue, and if not, what can I do to debug this issue?

Re: [SOLVED] ttf-google-fonts-git won't install: Zstd decompression failed

Since it's a zstd error how about building the package without compression? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ma … algorithms or generally rebuilding the package it might've been an issue with that specific invocation?

Thank you! This worked, I used the example provided in the Arch Wiki, that is PKGEXT='.pkg.tar'. Still not sure why this error happened, but at least I know how to avoid it in the future.

I can not reproduce the issue.  If you rebuild the package again with Zstd compression can you still reproduce the issue?

Yes, it still happens. Maybe it really is something on my end, but other AUR packages, even -git ones, also work. So I don't know.

Re: [SOLVED] ttf-google-fonts-git won't install: Zstd decompression failed

Any warnings from makepkg when you build the package?

No, there are no warnings when building.

You stopped at extracting the sources?

That must have been an issue with my copy-paste. Since then, the issue has also disappeared on my end, and no zstd error is reported. I do remember that makepkg didn't report any errors or anything out of the ordinary, it was only pacman trying to install the package.

It will be worth running a RAM test too - I last saw this error on a laptop which I later found (after random segfaults and finally BTRFS filesystem corruption) had a bad SODIMM.
