Package fontship needs to be rebuild for libgit2 version 1.4.

[cionx]

I installed fontship from the provided Pacman repository, but the program crashes.

$ fontship --help
fontship: error while loading shared libraries: libgit2.so.1.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The current version of the package has been built on December 15 and seems to search for version 1.3 of libgit2, which was the current version at the time. But it has since then been replaced by version 1.4 in the official repositories (first 1.4.1 and then the current version 1.4.2).

$ pacman -Ql libgit2 | grep libgit2.so
libgit2 /usr/lib/libgit2.so
libgit2 /usr/lib/libgit2.so.1.4
libgit2 /usr/lib/libgit2.so.1.4.0

Rebuilding the packages seems to fix the problem: I did so using the PKGBUILD provided on the AUR, and the problem disappears.

(I’m not sure if this is the right place to report this problem, given that the PKGBUILD itself seems to be okay. But this repository is the only place mentioned in the ArchWiki.)

Thanks for the heads up. A rebuild is running now and should be in the repo in o few minutes.

And done.
