[PRQ#51406] Merge Request for gnucash-docs-git
MarsSeed [1] filed a request to merge gnucash-docs-git [2] into gnucash-git [3]: Not useful to keep the broken pkgbase=gnucash-docs-git. It was last changed in 2015, and has been failing to build since at least 2020 due to makedepends=rarian's reported FTBFS that year, which persists to this day. But no one noticed. gnucash-docs-git has only 2 votes, and 1 comment from maintainer made in 2017. Extra repo has the latest stable gnucash and gnucash-docs. If the rolling 'git' docs is needed, it is best to enable it in the main gnucash-git's PKGBUILD. With this merge, it will become possible in the latter to create a split package with the same 'gnucash-docs- git' name.

This should remain separate much as the gnucash version release and gnucash-docs version release are separate in the extra repos. FURTHER, it is up to date and does compile and work, as does gnucash-git. Best regards - Not_Anonymous On Fri, Nov 17, 2023 at 6:48 AM <notify@aur.archlinux.org> wrote:

It is not useful to keep a package that fails to build due to (make)depending on deprecated, unmaintained, broken package(s). On 19 December 2023 21:04:28 GMT+01:00, nmlibertarian@gmail.com wrote:

But it DOES build !!! Just now did same. Really. Honest 'injun. truly. AND it DOES supply the "docs" package to the main program; gnucash-git. (Which also builds and runs too.) On Tue, Dec 19, 2023 at 3:46 PM Marcell Meszaros <marcell.meszaros@runbox.eu> wrote:

Just built both gnucash-git and gnucash-docs-git THRICE over the past two days....Not sure what problem you are experiencing,but perhaps IO can help you with some kind of feedback from you. On Wed, Dec 20, 2023 at 6:40 PM Marcell Meszaros <marcell.meszaros@runbox.eu> wrote:
