DetailsDescription:
Arch package of recent mtr 0.93 does not print version when --version option is used. Something in Arch build is going wrong with autotools ./configure AC_INIT([mtr], [m4_esyscmd([build-aux/git-version-gen .tarball-version])], [...]. When trying 'make distcheck' I can see project tests not working, but version number is fine. With these things in mind I have a hunch something in PKGBUILD file or makepkg is going wrong. Additional info: * package version: 0.93 * I compiled mtr from git clone without issues in version printing. * Compilation using tar file from upstream ftp site had no issues with version printing. Steps to reproduce: # mtr --version | cat -vet mtr $ |
This task depends upon

Removing autoreconf from the PKGBUILD should fix this. autoreconf likely only works with git clones of mtr and the released tarballs are missing the version generation script ("sh: build-aux/git-version-gen: No such file or directory").
