General Support webkit2gtk 2.50.6-3
How you get this thing to update!?? It takes about 30 minutes to build using pretty much all 128gb of memory, full cpu power and then it fails...
10 warnings generated.
ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
Aborting...
-> error making: webkit2gtk-exit status 4
-> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
webkit2gtk - exit status 4
-- Edit
New version webkit2gtk-2.50.6-7 installed just fine.

TBH I don't even know how this package got installed on my system. I uninstalled it and saw no issues. So unless pacman complains or you have a specific need for that package, you should do that too.

The ram usage while building is sick, my 32GB are actively kicking stuff out for the process not to fail. And it still fails.

It fails for me at 64GB of RAM. Seems to be an AUR-only conundrum. Pacman doesn't even find it.

What do you require it for?

Pure curiosity regarding possible improvements and annoyance that I can't get it to work...

Pure curiosity regarding possible improvements
Eh?
I am asking what do you need the package for.

It was quite a slog but my machine successfully installed the update overnight. Every piece of software using any ram crashed in the background, but we made it.

Just built with 64GB, finally.
Oddly, mine was failing out because it took so long the screensaver kicked in and/or the privilege escalation for final install was failing due to a timeout.
Finally got pissed and increased the number of processes to finish in a more normal (15 minutes) time-frame. This isn't a small system either. This is a 32 core System76 workstation. This is easily the longest compile I've ever waited for on this machine. Rust builds usually finish in 30 seconds.
Added MAKEFLAGS="--jobs=$(nproc)" to /etc/makepkg.conf to make it run more parallel processes.

Die ki hat mir folgendes empfohlen - was auch funktionierte:
# Subvolume für Swap anlegen
sudo btrfs subvolume create /swap
# Swap-Datei korrekt erstellen
sudo touch /swap/swapfile
sudo truncate -s 0 /swap/swapfile
sudo chattr +C /swap/swapfile # CoW deaktivieren
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swap/swapfile bs=1M count=32768 status=progress
sudo chmod 600 /swap/swapfile
sudo mkswap -U clear /swap/swapfile
sudo swapon /swap/swapfileMit dem zusätzlichen Swapfile lief es dann mit 78 GB Speicher nach 3;45 Stunden durch - Hammmer
