Note that eclipse-cpp is missing in the second part of the output above, under aura >>= AUR Packages:. This looks like it has to do with the logic of dealing with multi-package PKGBUILDs.

Thanks for reporting this, I'm going to look into it in detail tomorrow.

Forgive me, "tomorrow" became "next month".

There seem to have been to have been updates to this package recently, and people are having issues seemingly unrelated to Aura. Do you have any insight here? Were you able to get this installed?

When I tried to build it myself, everything went smoothly until it reached the final internal pacman stage where it applies pacman -U to built tarballs. It failed at that step, saying:

==> Finished making: eclipse 2:4.17-3 (Thu 22 Oct 2020 02:55:07 PM PDT)

I suppose I could --hotedit the uneeded sources away in the mean time.

Yes, that worked. I used --hotedit to remove the unneeded extra packages and their checksums from the PKGBUILD.
