2026-07-06: built/published 2.55.0-1 to the private archlinuxaba repo
for i486 and x86_64 only. i686 and pentium4 failed identically
while linking the contrib/credential/libsecret helper:
/usr/bin/ld: .../libsecret-1.so: undefined reference to `g_variant_builder_init_static'
This is a stale libsecret/glib pairing in those two chroots
specifically (/var/lib/archbuild/extra-{i686,pentium4}) — i486 and
x86_64 built the same step fine, so it’s not a PKGBUILD bug. Each
extra-<arch>-build syncs its own independent chroot copy, so they can
drift out of sync with each other over time.
Fix: pacman -Syu inside those two chroots (e.g. sudo
extra-i686-build -- -Syu or equivalent) before retrying.
Once fixed, only i686/pentium4 need rebuilding+publishing for
2.55.0-1 — i486/x86_64 are already done.
Its source=() includes a git+https://... VCS entry, which
extra-<arch>-build clones into a local git/ directory in the
package dir (~300MB) — this isn’t covered by repo_build.sh’s generic
post-build cleanup (VCS checkout directory naming varies too much per
package to safely generalize), so remove it manually after a build:
rm -rf git/ (confirm untracked first: git ls-files --error-unmatch
git).
