Arch Linux User Repository

Upstream is dead, last commit was from 2016... There's another fork https://github.com/kenorb-contrib/tg that looks promising and this should probably switch to, but it doesn't look like that's being updated either. Significant number of PRs and Issues on the upstream repo.

@annmuor: Worked like a charm, thanks!

@doragasu just add

LDFLAGS="-Wl,--allow-multiple-definition"

to configure line in PKGBUILD

Doesn't build:

Thanks for the suggestion. I updated the source to the fork by kenorb-contrib.

As mentioned in this issue, there is a fork that is more up-to-date than the source used for this package. The sources for this package have not seen any commit in years. Maybe we can use the fork as source?

In ./cofigure :

checking mach/mach.h usability... no checking mach/mach.h presence... no checking for mach/mach.h... no

In make :

You should add this patch. Build fails otherwise:

https://github.com/vysheng/tg/pull/1483

Edit: Forgot to mention that I had to build with clang instead of gcc...

I got it working by replacing ./configure with ./configure CFLAGS="-w". Might not be the best solution, since this will ignore all compiler warnings

@hamidzr Thanks for your help, but:

Assuming a patch file called 'patch', how do I patch?

$telegram-cli-git/src/telegram-cli-git/tgl

$patch -p1 <patch

??
