[aur-general] unparseable PKGBUILD
hello list, Sorry if i post on the wrong list. I have several PKGBUILDs that were parsed OK by the AUR website but are not anymore. The error given is 'unknown file format'. I re-read the PKGBUILD rules on the wiki but did not found were was the issue. Attached is a PKGBUILD giving such an error. Thanks for comments. - ben # Contributor: Benoit Rouits <brouits@free.fr> pkgname=nall pkgver=0.8 pkgrel=1 pkgdesc="a user script-based everything notifier on the systray" arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://herewe.servebeer.com/nall" license=('GPL') depends=('gtk2' 'glib2') optdepends=('nagios-plugins' 'telnet' 'ssh' 'python') makedepends=('make' 'gcc' 'pkgconfig') source=(http://herewe.servebeer.com/nall/releases/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar) build() { cd "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver" make PREFIX=/usr || return 1 make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" PREFIX=/usr install } md5sums=('d4adbe6815371821b11630cbad16a07f')

Hi Ben, This may be a silly question, but are you submitting a gzipped tarball (*.tar.gz) which contains your PKGBUILD in the root directory? Regards, Xyne
