@tcipu that wouldn't solve anything because these users didn't post their actual error, they only posted warnings which are not the cause of the failure.

For the n-th time: do NOT post the tail of the build log. This is completely useless. Post the actual errors, which you can find by searching for the FAILED string in the output.

Build fails on glibc 2.43+ with SYS_SECCOMP error

System: Arch Linux with glibc 2.43+r5+g856c426a7534-1

Error: error: expected identifier before numeric constant 224 | #define SYS_SECCOMP 1

Root cause: glibc 2.41+ added SYS_SECCOMP as an enum value in signal.h, conflicting with Chromium's internal definition.

Fix: Apply this patch to undefine the conflicting macro:

glibc-2.41-seccomp-fix.patch:

+#ifdef SYS_SECCOMP

How to apply:

  1. Add patch to source=() array: 'glibc-2.41-seccomp-fix.patch'
  2. Add to prepare() before set +x: patch -Np1 -d 'src/3rdparty/chromium' -i "${srcdir}/glibc-2.41-seccomp-fix.patch"
  3. Run updpkgsums
  4. Build with makepkg -f

Tested: Builds successfully with this patch applied.

@Delan the option for pacman is -U

For the noobs like me that were wondering how to use the pre-built package: sudo pamac install qt5-webengine-5.15.19-4-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst (I thought about pinging andreas_baumann but an LLM did the job.

@SmigorX: see the pinned comment just above, FabioLolix provides binaries on sourceforge.

Why is this not a prebuild package, wtf? It's absolutely massive. It took half a day on my PC, what am I supposed to do with my weaker laptop? Just not have this install ever?

This package builds Chromium version 87 from source.

Needless to say, that takes a very, very long time, even on a fast machine.

This isn't quite clear as it isn't made a dependency, and the package isn't postfixed -git.

There is no reason to do this what-so-ever. It means people upgrading their systems takes hours and this software is already built in numerous places.

If you have this package, I recommend that you remove it if at all possible.

@fereira, I did not notice this the first time, but check out the second pinned comment with the (Pre-build in chroot) comment. They have the prebuilt tarball for arch that you can simple pacman -U with. They are a lifesaver and I thank them for their service o7 (my crap can't compile lmao)

Logs after build failing after an hour.

For fucks sake why are we forcing a package with 200 dependencies to only be installed with an hour long build process
