Many AUR helpers attempt to download the source before installing build dependencies, of which
breezy
is one. This results in the build failing despite the
PKGBUILD
being fine.
Please do not make comments about this, flag this package as out-of-date, or send support requests for this topic. If your build fails for this reason you should install
breezy
manually, re-run your AUR helper, and then uninstall it afterwards. Alternatively, clone the AUR repository (optionally into a clean
chroot
) and run
makepkg
on it.

@zomgugoff Your error appears to be related to a different package, namely
, which is currently orphaned and thus not being maintained. I'd suggest looking there for assistance.
Off the top of my head, though, based on your error you seem to be missing dependencies.

Now ok. And i installed package "perl-xml-libxml" for correct build.

Ah, I see. Breezy is declared but because of how
yay
works it's trying to grab the source ahead of calling
makepkg
. Not great but once I resolve that I do get a similar error to others.

I get a wildly different error message from anyone else.

Looks like it depends on some kind of source control tool that is not declared in the dependencies? I agree with @quest, this is poor form. If I can get it building I will adopt and push up a fixed version.

This stack trace is a little different than the one below. Mine is without
gtk-sharp-2
and @dpvpro has that package installed.
