mullvad-browser-bin doesn't build correctly

Open PickMeNow opened this issue 8 months ago • 2 comments

Hi,

I detected another package that doesn't work with aura:

$ aura -A mullvad-browser-bin

aura :: Determining dependencies... aura :: AUR packages: mullvad-browser-bin aura :: Proceed? [Y/n] y aura :: Preparing build directories... aura :: Building mullvad-browser-bin... ==> ERROR: changelog file (mullvad-browser.changelog) does not exist or is not a regular file. aura :: Package failed to build, citing:

makepkg failed.

aura :: Action cancelled.

I was able to build it by editing the PKGBUILD with --hotedit, and commenting the line regarding changelog.

Since this can happen with other packages, as a suggestion would it be possible once it fails to build to ask to edit the PKGBUILD and try to rebuild it? or an option to comment automatically "changelog" entries in the PKGBUILD?

Thanks I will look into this. I've seen similar issues involving the changelog lately.

I had the same problem: in case it is useful, the changelog file is present in the git repo ~/.cache/aura/packages/mullvad-browser-bin , but it is not propagated to the build directory ~/.cache/aura/builds/mullvad-browser-bin , hence the error.
