0.2.0 flutter dependency resolution fails

[Bitals]

Describe the bug I am trying to build 0.2.0 on Arch. I tried to use both flutter and flutter-beta, neither succeeds.

To Reproduce PKGBUILD:

pkgname=tachidesk-sorayomi
__pkgname="$pkgname"
__PkgName="$(echo "$__pkgname" | sed -e "s/\b./\u\0/g")"
__binname="$(echo "$__pkgname" | tr - _)"
pkgver=0.2.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc='A free and open source manga reader to read manga from a Tachidesk-Server instance'
arch=('x86_64')
url="https://github.com/Suwayomi/$__PkgName"
license=('MPL2')
depends=('zenity')
optdepends=('tachidesk-server')
makedepends=_('flutter')/('flutter-beta')_
source=("$url/archive/refs/tags/$pkgver.tar.gz")
sha256sums=('87fbe79777accb71c7d67792f1efb0f5d8cbf31fdd530b5679646861b35ff1e0')

build() {
    cd "$__PkgName-$pkgver/"
    flutter config --enable-linux-desktop
    flutter pub get
    flutter build linux --release
}

Expected behavior Build succeeds.

Logs flutter (2.10.4-1):

ERR : Because every version of flutter_test from sdk depends on path 1.8.0 and tachidesk_sorayomi depends on path ^1.8.1, flutter_test from sdk is forbidden.
So, because tachidesk_sorayomi depends on flutter_test from sdk, version solving failed.

flutter-beta (2.13.0_0.1.pre-2):

ERR : Because scrollable_positioned_list 0.2.3 requires Flutter SDK version >=1.13.8 and no versions of scrollable_positioned_list match >0.2.3 <0.3.0, scrollable_positioned_list ^0.2.3 is forbidden.
So, because tachidesk_sorayomi depends on scrollable_positioned_list ^0.2.3, version solving failed.

Build environment

• Docker container
• Arch Linux
• jdk17-openjdk 17.0.3.u7-2
• jre17-openjdk 17.0.3.u7-2

Sorry, @Bitals I wasn't able to reproduce your error. but if you want to try then can you change depends in PKGBUILD to:

depends=('zenity' 'cmake' 'ninja')

CMake and ninja are required to build flutter apps in Linux.

If you face an error even after that maybe we need to wait for an update to the scrollable_positioned_list package.

Until then you can install Tachidesk-Sorayomi-bin.

Can you share me your output for

flutter doctor

 channel unknown and version 0.0.0-unknown

May be the reason for error. Cause scrollable_positioned_list have an explicit condition to check for flutter SDK >1.13

[Bitals]

May be the reason for error.

Yes, I mentioned that on the AUR page, but I have no experience with Flutter and I am not sure if that's the normal way flutter-beta reports its version number, or if it's a problem with the AUR package.

Then do you need to build it?. You can directly install it using Tachidesk-Sorayomi-bin

[DattatreyaReddy]

its the binary version and don't need flutter or cmake

[Bitals]

Then do you need to build it?.

I don't need to, but I want to. I am using the -bin package now.

This is something that need research. Don't have any idea about it. Also, I'm new to Flutter 😅

[Bitals]

Seems like flutter uses git under the hood to find out its own version, and git didn't like that /opt/flutter was owned by root. So in addition to adding yourself to flutterusers group one also needs to run

git config --global --add safe.directory /opt/flutter

after installing flutter-beta, or just build as root (not the best idea).

And clang needs to me mentioned as a make-dependency too, my docker environment didn't have it and failed. Though clang is just the default for cmake with standard config, I guess llvm or other C/C++ compiler should be fine. Not sure if PKGBUILD supports multiple options for dependencies and if it's not a cmake problem.

All good after that anyway.
