Can't build kdepim from ABS

sleeping2620 · 2010-09-27 03:17:45

I'd like to compile Kontact to get debugging symbols. After fetching the ABS tree, I copy the /var/abs/extra/kdepim to my build directory, then call makepkg. I then get the following error :

user@host:~/ABS/kdepim$ makepkg

The build script seems to try to fetch something which does not exist. How can I fix the package to successfully build Kontact?

Maybe it's a wrong url: http://ftp.tuniv.szczecin.pl/pub/kde/st … 4.4.6/src/

not using kde but looking at the PKGBUILD and looking at the ftp server tree, it looks like you should use:

source=("http://download.kde.org/stable/${pkgbase}-${pkgver}/src/${pkgbase}-${pkgver}.tar.bz2")

The problem is, the file ain't there.

The problem really is that the download gets pinged out to on if its mirrors. The OP was reaching a mirror that did not have the file... That actually happens quite frequently to me.

Download the source from the location given above and put it in your build directory.

hmm look at what makepkg tries to download and look at the mirror structure, you'll see there's something strange there. therefore, my proposal (that should work but that I didnt try because huh, I'm not bored enough )
