I scratched an itch and would now like feedback on my first PKGBUILD. I enabled the features I need (which are all basic), plus all those that did not pull in too many additional dependencies and compiled without fuss. I split out syncevo-http-server because it depends on many Python packages, and many users won't need it. The patch (not included) replaces python by python2, fixes two minor compilation issues, and applies a hack to get it to work with libical2. (Upstream is aware.) (There are obsolete syncevolution packages in the AUR Archive, but I decided to start from scratch.)
