Gopass: Source for v1.10.0 is broken

Created on 24 Aug 2020 · 7Comments · Source: gopasspw/gopass

Summary

Hello, the official Arch package which compiles from the archived source here is broken and still references version 1.10.0-rc.1:

https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-community/blob/packages/gopass/trunk/PKGBUILD

Additionally, gopass-jsonapi and the other tools are broken as well and simply run the compiled gopass binary. They appear to be working in the compiled releases.

Hi! Is this the same cause of the following error that I've started seeing today?

$> gopass --version
Failed to load config *config.Config. unknown fields: [root]
gopass 1.10.0-rc.1 (2020-08-23 18:46:22) go1.15 linux amd64

@petobens Yes, that is the same cause.

The error message is actually only a warning. We tried to be more helpful, but actually this might be more confusing than helpful.

The Makefile is just broken for the external binaries.
Our binary releases don't rely on the Makefile so these should be fine.
But anything using the Makefile will be affected.

Is there any plan to fix the Makefile in the near future? What do your binary releases rely on? Can you share the build instructions? Thanks!

yes please fix the makefile is bad systems engineering to install things from source(out of OS packaging) unless you are going to develop on the app or there is a new feature that you need and the OS repo is behind.
