Actually I couldn't install using this pkgbuild or the main one but I managed to build it from upstream using some valuable information from this thread: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=237689

Package gperf should also be added as a dependency.

libnsutils=0.0.5-4 prevents libnsutils from upgrading.

Update (2020-12-27). Also needs perl-html-parser as a dependency.

I have the same problem as mattf : multiple definition of fb_italic_section_table and so on.

Adding -fcommon to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS didn't work. Also tried to add --allow-multiple-definition to LDFLAGS but this option isn't recognized.

Also tried it with the latest source by modifying the netsurf community package's PKGBUILD. It builds the GTK frontend but not the framebuffer one.

Thanks @novns it worked!

@mattf, -fno-common became default in newer GCC.

Try to add -fcommon to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS in /etc/makepkg.conf

@FabioLolix, thanks for showing me the need to clear that up. I will add that to the description.

@FabioLolix this package builds for the framebuffer :

_makeopts="-C $_makedir PREFIX=/usr TARGET=framebuffer"

while the official package is a Gtk app; from the PKGBUILD :

    TARGET=gtk \

What is the difference with netsurf from community?
