makepkg fails to create package

Maximalminimalist · 2009-12-26 18:38:42

Hello everyone,

I'd like to install something from AUR but when I go into the folder of the extracted package and do makepkg everything seems to work but in the end:

(I extract with the GUI in nautilus but I suppose that makes no change.)

[quarki@powerFrench bin32-skype]$ makepkg
==> Making package: bin32-skype 2.1.0.47-5 x86_64 (Sat Dec 26 18:51:58 CET 2009)

==> ERROR: Failed to create package file.

What is wrong and what can I do? (System is up to date)

Thanks in advance.

What PKGBUILD are you using? That might help us to diagnoze the problem...

Here's the PKGBUILD I used but I also tried to install some library from the AUR and the problem was the same.

did you modfied something in makepkg.conf or something else?

The only thing I changed is the PKGDEST. (As described in the wiki.)

(That's my /etc/makepkg.conf)

#-- Exclusive: will only run on x86_64
# -march (or -mcpu) builds exclusively for an architecture
# -mtune optimizes for an architecture, but builds for whole processor family
CFLAGS="-march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="-march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe"
LDFLAGS="-Wl,--hash-style=gnu -Wl,--as-needed"
#-- Make Flags: change this for DistCC/SMP systems
#MAKEFLAGS="-j2"

that directory exists? /home/quarki/packages

Maximalminimalist · 2009-12-27 16:09:12

Now it does...

Stupid mistake... I feel shame.

Thank you for the fast support!
