AUR fails to build due to missing include.

When attempting to install ninfs from the AUR, the following error will be encountered:

Adding #include <string> to ninfs/hac/_crypto.cpp solved all of those for me; this should probably be added to the AUR version if not update the AUR version.

This is most likely the result of the AUR version not being updated with the 2.0 "alpha" releases (1.6.1 is from May 2019). I thought I would get around to updating it for 2.0 eventually but that's taken me years...

Most likely what I will do is just drop the "alpha" tag so the last stable release isn't very old. Then that will give me an excuse to update the AUR.

I made the 2.0 release and have fixed the PKGBUILD locally. But it is missing haccrypto now which is a separate dependency, so a new AUR package needs to be made for it.

Wait it already is, somehow I missed it in my search... https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-haccrypto

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ninfs http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ninfs-git should work now

This seems to be working now, tested on two arch machines. Please re-open if it’s still broken.
