It would appear that the PKGBUILD is trying to extract an .rpm package which it cannot find, so best is to contact the maintainer of that AUR package. Sadly enough, octopi does not list any contact details for them. :man_shrugging:

Note: You can install the package manually with the instructions on the official website. :arrow_down:

Ok, i’ve written directly to the AUR maya mantainer meepzh.

I’ll try manually, but which one do you suggest for manjaro? using the installation wizard or the RPM utility?

Manjaro does not use .rpm and has no native utility for installing such packages. Such a utility does exist, but it too is an AUR package, and as such, it is not officially supported.

The PKGBUILD for maya in the AUR probably pulls in the .rpm package converter as a dependency, so then you’re back to square one. I would therefore suggest using the other method. :man_shrugging:

Please edit your first post to format the terminal output properly.

In the future, please prepend the command with LC_ALL=C to display the output in English. Either that or post in our #languages:espanol section if you want to post in Spanish instead of English.

It’s probably best to use makepkg -
(and that is what you’ll be told to do when they see you using pamac)

or use pamac build
and no package name - just pamac build

from within the directory where you have placed the package that you yourself need to download and unpack
before the process can work

See the pinned comment on the AUR page

AUR (en) - maya

and also prepend
LANG=C
before your command, so that the output will be in english
like:

LANG=C pamac build

All Autodesk products are now subscription based offers, even the trial versions. You can download them by accepting their agreement and providing an email aka creating an account on their platform either for Business or for Education purposes.

Now the AUR PKGBUILD has a disclaimer too in it:

Please download the package manually from the official website ...
