Unable to build with latest git files about libusbhsfs HOT 17 CLOSED

Yep, it could be that. I switched the bash.rc file I was using, but also manually removed libusbhsfs.a from the lib folder and this time it installed properly.

Thanks for your help.

No problem, glad to help.

Run make fs-libs before attempting to build the library. You're most likely missing the switch-ntfs-3g and switch-lwext4 packages, or maybe you already have installed them in the past but they need to be updated.

from libusbhsfs.

As a side note: yes, I know this is troublesome, but these packages won't ever be merged by DKP folks into their pacman packages repository, which is why they need to be managed manually.

Run make fs-libs before attempting to build the library.

May I ask why that must be done manually, instead of make automatically doing that itself as part of the process?

Thanks, I get this error trying that make fs-libs

To potentially avoid wasting time on building both packages if they aren't needed -- libusbhsfs codebase may be updated more frequently than the FS libraries it relies on.

A package version check using pacman or makepkg (or a combination of both?) could probably be added into dev, but I haven't looked into it.

Ah, seems like I forgot to use dkp-pacman instead of pacman on distros without pacman. I'll take care of that.

In windows:

Look into disabling automatic LF -> CRLF conversion in git under Windows. It can mess up the patch files.

from libusbhsfs.

I can build older versions of this lib in windows, just not this new updated version - so I doubt that's the issue. Also how do I do that?

It can be an issue -- changing line endings completely changes the checksums of patch files applied to both NTFS-3G and lwext4 tarballs before building.

from libusbhsfs.

I'm not disputing that, but all other stuff builds fine without any issues. Anyway how do you change that in windows"mysys2" shell?

from libusbhsfs.

I just did this:

git config --global core.autocrlf true
git config --global core.eol crlf

Then: make fs-libs

But I'm still getting the same errors as above.

Just switched to the PC, following threads on my phone can be a bit cumbersome.

You can't install these packages through DKP's pacman repository -- as I said earlier, they won't ever be part of it because of DKP's policies. Which is why they must be manually built and installed via make fs-libs. As explained in the readme, this will always be a required step.

Okay, so I just took a better look at the error messages.

pacman output is being intentionally silenced in the Makefile script from the libntfs-3g directory, but I suspect a conflict between pkg-config and pkgconf is causing the issue. pkgconf is supposed to be a better replacement for pkg-config, but they use the same filepaths. Read more about this kind of conflict here.

You can just modify that Makefile script to disable output silencing and check if pkg-config is the source of the problem.

Alternatively, you can just check if pkg-config is installed. If so, uninstall it, then re-run make fs-libs.

OK checked that, now I am getting this error:

==> Missing dependencies:
  -> dkp-toolchain-vars

So pacman -Syu dkp-toolchain-vars

Says it's already have - dkp-toolchain-vars-1.0.2-1 installed, I've manually removed and reinstalled and now make fs-libs is working. Thanks.

EDIT:

Seems I also need to manually remove these:

Eventually make fs-libs worked, but I still get the same errors while building:

Your 'old' DKP installation may very well be conflicting with your current one... Make sure your environment variables point to the right paths.
