  Anyone have experience building monero through xbps-src? I am apparently missing something called "monotonic" but I can't seem to find a place to get it from.

  <s​yntheticbird:monero.social> I never met a void linux user before, i'm afraid no one here ever used it

  I see, thank you.

  <s​yntheticbird:monero.social> You can still wait as i don't see a lot of read receipts on the Matrix side.

  <j​effro256:monero.social> Guest75: It's a python package. If you have pip, try `pip install monotonic`

  <j​effro256:monero.social> Or `python3 -m pip install monotonic`

  Guest75
  alright

  m-relay
  <j​effro256:monero.social> You only need the Python dependencies for testing btw

  I mean it refused to even attempt the build without gtest present

  is there a flag for explicitly skipping tests?
• 16:30
  m-relay
  <v​tnerd:monero.social> There's `-DBUILD_TESTS=Off`
• 16:31
  m-relay
  <v​tnerd:monero.social> It should skip all of that, and if not it's arguably worth a pr to update that

  Well that solved the python issue, thanks for the help

  There is -D EXPECT_FUNCTIONAL_TESTS=OFF, which will let it go ahead and just skip python tests that need monotonic (and a couple others) if not found.

  Ah wait, it's not in the actual monero tree, guess I did not PR.
