[AML S905x] Manjaro Linux Desktop Kodi Compiling Issue

[spikerguy]

Hello All,
I am new to this forum and I have been experimenting with the Amlogic S905x SBC from Khadas, VIM1 device. After I was able to build Manjaro Linux for the device I tried installing Kodi to test if that would work but as I see kodi-c2 was the only one available for Amlogix s905x SBC, this failed as i was getting stuck with this error

then I tried to compile kodi using the similar PKGBUILD of kodi-c2 using the same repo used in this PKGBUILD, this got me stuck with another failed attempt.

I tried using balbes kodi repo also and the Latest xbmc core repo also had problem with patch or sometime CheckFunction Error.

Had posting the same on Khadas Forum but I think asking in Kodi forum is a better option to get support.
For the mods if this Post is not in the correct Category then please move it or advice me on this.
I have tried posting the same in Kodi forum but didnt get any reply. I hope someone from the Arch Team and advice me on something regarding these issues.

Thanks
