starting to collect them here packages which require icu69 (and have thus not been rebuilt
for icu 71 yet):

libreoffice-fresh

Wait unfortunately i found a patch through which chromium would compile on x86

please try to build chromium using those patches

When running qtile I get the following error message:

[qtile] importlib.metadata.PackageNotFoundError: No package metadata was found for qtile

Running qtile on Arch Linux works as expected.

libprotobuf=28 is a mumble (package) dependency, but protobuf package has libprotobuf=32.

I needed to downgrade to protobuf-3.17.3-1.3-pentium4.pkg.tar.zst (from the archive) to install mumble.

on fresh install file /usr/lib/libbfd.so lacks header “/* GNU ld script */” so I see complains on terminal

Starting terminus gives following error:

from ._cairo import *  # noqa: F401,F403
ImportError: /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/cairo/_cairo.cpython-310-i386-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: cairo_tee_surface_index

Bug seens to be related to

https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/77367

There is generall mess on cairo related files for different architectures (pentium4, i486, i686) - some packages for one architecture are outdated, while for other archictectures are up to date, for instance:

• python-cairo i486/extra : 1.21.0-1.0
• python-cairo i686/extra : 1.23.0-3.0
• python-cairo pentium4/extra : 1.23.0-3.0

This is pentium4 related problem. Firefox crashes on startup with following messages:

ExceptionHandler::GenerateDump cloned child 814
ExceptionHandler::SendContinueSignalToChild sent continue signal to child
ExceptionHandler::WaitForContinueSignal waiting for continue signal...

Screenshot. Firefox folder after crash.

Temporary solution is to change in /etc/pacman/conf

Architecture=i686

, delete firefox for pentium4 from pacman cache and reinstall firefox

firefox-106.0.3.1.1-i686

gcompris-qt 3.0-1.0 is missing a dependency on llvm14 (or maybe it needs a rebuild for llvm) and thus it doesn’t show any game in the menu.

The current version of sddm (0.19.0-9.0) depends on the previous version of Qt (5.15.8). After updating Qt, sddm crashes with an incompatible Qt library error.

The latest version of calibre is 6.16.

The version in the repositories is 6.11.0-1.0 and unfortunately will no longer start.

python-setuptools-scm 7.1.0-4.1 as found in the repo is missing the dependencies python-packaging and python-setuptools, which breaks the build of many other packages.

just wanted to get this one on the board - i am unable to build ‘python-pyqt5’ which many other packages depend on, such as ‘qutebrowser’

the current ‘python-pyqt5’ PKGBUILD, which builds fine for x86_64 and arm, has unspecified dependencies in the i686 repos - not sure why that is

ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘jaraco.functools’
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘jaraco.context’

that is easily fixed by requiring them explicitly:
> makedepends_i686=(’python-jaraco.context’ ‘python-jaraco.functools’)

however, after that, it gives a more fatal error:

sip-build: Unable to import ‘project.py’: No module named ‘pyqtbuild’

that module is in the ‘pyqt-builder’ package, i beleive - ‘pyqt-builder’ is installed as a build dependency; but it was built for python 3.9 - so probably that is why the build could not find the module
