Failure "prepare / patch" on update / install youplay

Since I couple of months I had youpla installed from AUR. Yetserday an update fro 43 → 44 has been provided. An error occured so I removed it temporarily. Now:

$ pamac install youplay
...

==> FEHLER: Ein Fehler geschah in prepare().
    Breche ab...

Line 18 is:

	patch -p1 -i ${srcdir}/0001-Change-paths-for-packaging.patch

How can I fix this? Thank you.

Thank you, worked! I had nothing before concernig “base-devel”; any background for this change?

The base-devel package group was always required for using the AUR. Recently was converted to a meta package.
