Dependency cycles?

$ sudo aura -Akxa mingw-w64-qt5-base-static
...
aura >>= Determining dependencies...

aura >>= The following dependency cycles were detected:
mingw-w64-cairo => mingw-w64-fontconfig => mingw-w64-freetype2 => mingw-w64-harfbuzz => mingw-w64-librsvg => mingw-w64-pango => mingw-w64-poppler

What cycles is it referring to?

It shows what packages need to be installed first

[mkoloberdin]

The thing it that it does not install them after spitting out that message. It is a fatal error in other words.

Congratulations, this is actually the first time I've seen a user report this in 10 years 😆 It would be interesting to see what the new version of Aura would output for this. I will be fixing up the Aura 4 installation tomorrow (Saturday).

I don't think this is possible, there are 2 -bootstrap packages that need to be built first before attempting to build with normal packages. Unless aura would be smart enough to build these 2 first
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mingw-w64-freetype2-bootstrap
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mingw-w64-cairo-bootstrap

I haven't gotten to this yet but will soon.
