Arch Linux User Repository

Patches etc. are very welcome at https://gitlab.archlinux.org/freso/java-openjfx (java21-openjfx branch) if you have any suggestions for how to fix the package. :)

Disabling the building of WebKit seems to unbreak the build. I’m not sure how essential the WebKit parts are to JavaFX overall, so a bit wary about changing this part of the PKGBUILD here. For anyone who wants to try it out, you can grab the package from this branch: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/freso/java-openjfx/-/tree/java21-openjfx-no-webkit

It would be much better if JavaFX could use the system/AUR libraries/packages instead bringing its own version and compiling them locally. It elongates the build time a lot, also the build process could contain errors/issues that are potentially fixed in the system packages / other PKGBUILDs.

I'm getting build error:

I have perl v5.40.0 installed.

Any suggestions?

Please change options=(!lto) to options+=('!lto'), so that !lto is appended but other options set by the user (e.g. in /etc/makepkg.conf) stay in effect.

Regards and thanks for maintaining!

With up to date GCC 14.1.1, you need to add the following (or code with similar effect) to build():

  _FIXWERROR_GCC14="-Wno-error=incompatible-pointer-types -Wno-error=sign-compare -Wno-error=int-conversion"   _SILENCEWARNINGS="-Wno-incompatible-pointer-types -Wno-sign-compare -Wno-int-conversion -Wno-missing-field-initializers -Wno-cast-function-type -Wno-discarded-qualifiers -Wno-deprecated-copy -Wno-missing-field-initializers -Wno-stringop-truncation -Wno-return-local-addr -Wno-dangling-pointer -Wno-address -Wno-switch -Wno-deprecated-declarations -Wno-stringop-overread -Wno-expansion-to-defined -Wno-array-bounds"   _CFLAGSADDITIONS=" ${_FIXWERROR_GCC14} ${_SILENCEWARNINGS}"   CFLAGS+="${_CFLAGSADDITIONS}"   CXXFLAGS+="${_CFLAGSADDITIONS}"   export CFLAGS   export CXXFLAGS 

(_SILENCEWARNINGS is optional, it also silences the printing of some compiler warnings.)

Otherwise build fails with
freetype.c:523:33: error: initialization of ‘jbyte *’ {aka ‘signed char *’} from incompatible pointer type ‘jfloat *’ {aka ‘float *’} [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
and

Regards!

Another small change: Can you please add --no-daemon to your gradle command? We generally don't want to daemonize gradle when building packages.

Patches etc. are very welcome at https://gitlab.archlinux.org/freso/java-openjfx (java21-openjfx branch) if you have any suggestions for how to fix the package. :)

Disabling the building of WebKit seems to unbreak the build. I’m not sure how essential the WebKit parts are to JavaFX overall, so a bit wary about changing this part of the PKGBUILD here. For anyone who wants to try it out, you can grab the package from this branch: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/freso/java-openjfx/-/tree/java21-openjfx-no-webkit

Patch to fix issues:

• Fix wrong provides.
• Add LDFLAGS work around, it won't compile without it.
• Move conflicting files with java-openjfx package.
• Disable webkit, it doesn't compile, same problem as java-openjfx.

Also, can you please bump pkgrel instead of adding a .u to pkgver? That's what pkgrel is for.
