Building samplecat-git from AUR

Post by roithamer »

Hello
Recently I wanted to try out Samplecat sample browser, which, thanks to milk, is available for arch users via AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/samplecat-git/

Unfortunately building process gives me this error. I'm not the only one, as another user of Ardour forum has identical problem:
https://discourse.ardour.org/t/file-sam ... /101643/36
Any hints how to fix this?

Code: Select all

fontmap.c:44:18: error: field ‘parent_instance’ has incomplete type
   44 |   PangoFcFontMap parent_instance;
      |                  ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

There is a fair chance that the state of samplecat is broken as it stands on GH as the developer has previously pushed in a state that doesn't build. The last time I reported such an error, I also suggested they set up CI so it is known quicker that this is the case, but I guess they have had other priorities. Don't let that stop you filing an issue, they have been responsive enough to fix such issues, I've just personally gotten a bit burnt out by the process.
