Failed test in AUR

[vinoff]

I am installing syncthingtray via aur yay -S syncthingtray but it is failing a test, namely:

3 - syncthingwidgets_run_wizard_tests (Subprocess aborted)

It seems to be something that happens frequently to other people, at least according to AUR comments, though I couldn't find a fix.

Any suggestion?

I think this is the important section of the logs. Let me know if you need more:

The last questions on the AUR that actually related to this specific test are a bit older. I though I was able to iron-out those problems.

Unfortunately this isn't so easy to debug in the build environment. I usually run tests in headful mode and step though them via GDB to see what's going on.

Does this always happen or just sometimes?

The GTK-related warnings look a bit weird. They look like you're using a special platform integration plugin or Qt Widgets style. Maybe this is problematic.

By the way, you probably want to use the Qt 6 based version at this point. It would also be interesting to know whether it works to build syncthingtray-qt6 in your environment.

Note that I generally recommend to build in a clean chroot using makechrootpkg.

[vinoff]

The qt6 version installed, though I am unsure if the problem was/is with the qt5 version or with the fact that I rebuilt all dependencies. Regardless, it is installed. Thank you @Martchus!

[Martchus]

Ok, good. Then it might be really related to the platform/style plugin as you maybe use different ones with Qt 6.

I rebuilt all dependencies

Probably you can now get rid of qtutilities and qtforkawesome (because now you only need the corresponding *-qt6 variants).
