@mooshmooshme, thanks, package updated.

Thanks for maintaining this package. J seems to use pcre2 for the built in regular expression package instead of pcre. I also think pcre2 should be a dependency of j9-git.

The command: echo "'\w*' rxmatch 'hello'" | j9 -c should output 0 5.

Here is a patch of what I changed to get it working: https://pastebin.com/RDN4nhUh

Oh, my mistake. I thought I had clean built but I have just retried and it went smoothly. I must have inadvertently selected a different option. Thanks, works great. (unflagging)

@Lukalot, have you tried a clean build?

EDIT: Asking, because new PKGBUILD doesn't create jsource-master directory anymore.

Lukalot commented on 2020-12-30 01:09

Hm, @tomeil's new PKGBUILD works great. This AUR package is still encountering the same cannot stat error though. It may have not been entirely updated?

You are right. When I've created the package, some years ago, I've put all customization in jenv.tar.gz just to simplify the PKGBUILD. jenv contains the two main J addons, ide/jqt and ide/jhs (coming from the official addons repository), in order to have a J package providing "out of the box" the most important J IDE. Then, I added the j9hsd.service to allow enabling jhs server at system level by means of systemd. The other important custom file is profilex.ijs, which allows J updates at user level (in ~/.config/j9) by means of J package manager. Finally, there are some .desktop files and icons to launch J from develop menu of desktop environments.

I've incorporated update from tomeil and changed the versioning scheme/package structure to better reflect the nature of the package.

Please check it out and confirm it works.

I also have in plans to remove external dependency on the jenv.tar.gz that's coming from a third party. Ideally, package should only depend on official sources, or files we build ourselves.

I'm no longer the package maintainer. Anyway, here is my updated PKGBUILD: https://www.databaserossoverde.it/jsoftware/j9-git-9.03.01.20201225.src.tar.gz

Sorry for the inconvenience, but I'm flagging this package again- there's at least one other changed file location (previous message).

Lukalot commented on 2020-12-21 23:29

No problem, thanks a bunch for maintaining this package.

EDIT: I'm not sure if you got a chance to test the compile but there's another issue after the one you just fixed. Either they made yet another structure change or this is just another separate issue.

Issue: ==> Entering fakeroot environment... ==> Starting package()... cp: cannot stat 'jsource-master/jlibrary/bin/libj.so': No such file or directory ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package(). Aborting... error making: j9-git
