Guys,

I'm obviously doing something wrong. I set up abs, then copied the tightvnc 
package to my build dir, then I built it with makepkg -s (built clean - no 
errors), then I went to install it and it bombed.

03:24 dcrgx2:~/arch/abs/tightvnc> sudo pacman -U 
tightvnc-1.3.10_unixsrc.tar.bz2
loading package data...
error: missing package metadata in tightvnc-1.3.10_unixsrc.tar.bz2
error: 'tightvnc-1.3.10_unixsrc.tar.bz2': invalid or corrupted package

What metadata am I missing? What did I do wrong?
