Description
Thanks for reporting your bug here! The following template will help with
giving as much information as possible so that it's easier to diagnose and
fix.
Upfront Information
Please provide the following information by running the command and providing
the output.
-
Fvwm3 version (run:
fvwm3 --version
)- 1.1.2
-
Linux distribution or BSD name/version
- Arch Linux
Expected Behaviour
What were you trying to do? Please explain the problem.
I was trying to compile the fvwm3 package from the AUR (which appears to be maintained by a member of the fvwm3 project) here, however, it failed to compile for at least three reasons:
- The download of fvw3m 1.1.2 would fail due to a 404 error.
- The sha256sum was incorrectly attempting to compare version 1.1.2 to version 1.1.1, and thus it would fail (which is correct behavior, as the sha256sums of 1.1.1 & 1.1.2 should be different, but this is obviously not intended behavior).
go
is a needed dependency to build fvwm3, however this was not included and the provided PKGBUILD did not lead to an Arch package.
Actual Behaviour
What should have happened, but didn't?
The AUR package should have compiled to a working install of fvwm3, however, it did not.
Extra Information
I have included the PKGFILE (with a .txt
extension to get GitHub to actually upload it) with some changes to fix compilation and building the AUR package correctly. I haven't been able to fully test the package, but it seems to compile and install properly.
- Anything else we should know?
I'm sorry if I couldn't do this on the AUR, however, I don't have an AUR account...
