If you encounter dependency break when updating the system, you can try building the package in clean chroot and using a local repository to resolve this issue.

There is a breaking change with SVT-AV1 causing new builds to fail. You need to get 0001-unbreak-svt-av1-4-build.patch from Arch FFMPEG sources, and update PKGBUILD accordingly. Builds and installs fine for me after.

Replacing the libglslang with libshaderc in PKGBUILD worked for me. I'm not even going to pretend I know why

ffmpeg 8 adds Whisper for subtitle generation:

https://web.archive.org/web/20251002085956/https://ivo.palli.nl/2025/09/18/subtitles-using-ffmpeg/

I couldn't say for sure that this is the reason, but it's plausible. There are also some codecs that make more use of available GPUs for decoding and/or encoding.

zotan commented on 2025-10-13 11:49 (UTC)

Apologies for the delay, updated to 8.0-3, libglslang build errors should be resolved.

@salfter

Replacing the libglslang with libshaderc in PKGBUILD worked for me. I'm not even going to pretend I know why (wild guess would be transient dependencies), so ymmv.

The current version is throwing this error when I try to build:

==> Starting prepare()...
Applied patch to 'libavformat/avformat.h' cleanly.
Applied patch to 'libavformat/mux_utils.c' cleanly.
==> Starting pkgver()...
==> Starting build()...
ERROR: spirv_compiler not found

If you think configure made a mistake, make sure you are using the latest
version from Git.  If the latest version fails, report the problem to the
[email protected] mailing list or IRC #ffmpeg on irc.libera.chat.
Include the log file "ffbuild/config.log" produced by configure as this will help
solve the problem.
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
==> ERROR: Build failed, check /var/lib/archbuild/extra-x86_64/salfter-1/build

This even occurs in a clean chroot.

spirv-tools is installed. Does it need spirv-tools-git instead?

Update: spirv-tools-git didn't fix the problem.

@zotan
it still doesnt work, stuck at the same place :(
i'll try to find a chance to reboot the whole system, thank you all the same :)
Update:
A system-wide rebooting does not help, and I can't recall any modification has been done since the last update of this package (except system update)
I have omitted the flag "--enable-librsvg", and the rest compiles successfully

zotan commented on 2025-10-08 17:40 (UTC)

@rAYz hm, that's really strange. what happens if you modify the PKGBUILD, replacing /usr/lib/mbedtls2/pkgconfig with /usr/lib/mbedtls2/pkgconfig:/usr/lib/pkgconfig?

rAYz commented on 2025-10-08 17:38 (UTC)

@zotan

rm -rf ~/.cache/yay/ffmpeg-libfdk_aac

this removes the entire folder, which contains the src and the pkg dirs, then

$ yay -S ffmpeg-libfdk_aac
AUR Explicit (1): ffmpeg-libfdk_aac-2:8.0-2
:: (1/1) Downloaded PKGBUILD: ffmpeg-libfdk_aac
  1 ffmpeg-libfdk_aac                        (Installed) (Build Files Exist)
==> Packages to cleanBuild?
==> [N]one [A]ll [Ab]ort [I]nstalled [No]tInstalled or (1 2 3, 1-3, ^4)
==> A
...

gets the same result log

zotan commented on 2025-10-08 17:26 (UTC)

@rAYz can you try rebuilding the package after clearing the srcdir & pkgdir? your logs show a non-clean build
