Fails to build with following errors:

/usr/bin/ld: ttfautohintGUI-maingui.o: file not recognized: file truncated
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Any advice?

please add help2man as makedep

Why is noto-fonts-alpha needed? Is it only a makedepends as mentioned below?

Here's the PKGBUILD I'm using to build it without docs: https://gist.github.com/undu/2f3a09209ddda603c2a77f58d9f6b252

I had this error, using pandoc 2.2.1, and with 2.2.3.2:

/bin/sh ./strip-comments.sh ttfautohint-1.pandoc ttfautohint-2.pandoc ttfautohint-3.pandoc ttfautohint-4.pandoc ../NEWS > ttfautohint.txt
pandoc --smart \
            --template=./template.html \
            --default-image-extension=".svg" \
            --variable="version:1.8.1" \
            --toc \
            --include-in-header=./ttfautohint-css.html \
            --include-in-header=./ttfautohint-js.html \
            --standalone \
            --output=ttfautohint.html ttfautohint.txt
--smart/-S has been removed.  Use +smart or -smart extension instead.
For example: pandoc -f markdown+smart -t markdown-smart.
Try pandoc --help for more information.
make[2]: *** [Makefile:1327: ttfautohint.html] Error 2

Looks like it’s from upstream, sigh...

@starlight thanks that seems to work. I've updated the pkgbuild

char101 commented on 2018-03-30 08:07

Failed when building the documentation because there are several obsolete pandoc parameters. If you just want to install this package quickly add

--without-doc

to the configure line when editing the PKGBUILD.

Can the noto-fonts-alpha be moved to makedepends array instead of being a runtime dependency? (and so should pandoc and other packages needed for documentation)

help2man should also be included into the makedepends array.

Something like this: https://gist.github.com/undu/296b2ec54977fd0b5be4fef4d5693197

For some reason for me pandoc fails spectacularly when trying to build the docs, so I had to disable doc generation anyway.

@vertebrate This is a bug in ttfautohint: it can only build is Qt version only has single-digit components, so it chokes on the 10 in the current Qt version (5.10.0).
