Hey! https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnome-printing someone can help me fix up this PKGBUILD or know how to make a PKGBUILD that only unpacks files in a specific folder or if it should be a PKGBUILD at all? //Luna <on behalf of Ole>
Hi Luna, I'm unable to test manually now but please find some info, I hope it helps: 1- Such request belongs only to aur-general. aur-dev is for development of the AURweb, aur-requests is for submitting orphan requests, delete requests etc. 2- Next time, please only submit a PKGBUILD to AUR when it is working, otherwise you might trap other users into a broken package. I may email the aur-general mailing list with the PKGBUILD attached. 3- No need to uncompress the tarball listed in the sources array. They are uncompressed already so you can go straight to other tasks (patching, building...) 4- In build() function, you are missing configure and build statements (e.g. configure and make if project is set with GNU autotools) 5- depends() and makedepends() are empty, and you will need to figure out what are the dependency required by this project. My preferred way is to use a clean chroot [1], as a missing pkg name in the (make)depends in the array causes an error of missing dependency when building. 6- license also empty, remember to fill in later.
