pkgbuild error: slim login manager [SOLVED]

what i am running:
[au@arroyo1 slim]$ echo $(uname -m)
x86_64
[au@arroyo1 slim]$ yaourt -Ss gcc 4*
core/gcc 4.4.0-1 [installed] (base-devel)
     The GNU Compiler Collection
core/gcc-libs 4.4.0-1 [installed] (base)
     Runtime libraries shipped by GCC for C and C++ languages
[au@arroyo1 slim]$ yaourt -Ss kernel26
core/kernel26 2.6.29.4-1 [installed] (base)
     The Linux Kernel and modules
core/kernel26-firmware 2.6.29-1 [installed] (base)
     The included firmware files of the Linux Kernel

problem:
i was following the howto in the ABS wiki and recieved the following error when attempting to build the slim login manager using an unmodified PKGBUILD:

Re: pkgbuild error: slim login manager [SOLVED]

SLiM needs a patch to compile on gcc 4.4, I've recently added that patch to slim-cursor in the AUR (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21053)

the build you're doing seems to be lacking that patch?

*edit*

http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/*c … ch?rev=1.1

the patch.

Nothing mentionned on our own bugtracker though

And it shouldn't be since it's nothing Arch specific

Re: pkgbuild error: slim login manager [SOLVED]

thanks.  everything went just fine with the ABS in that tar.  however, i am not sure how to get the PKGBUILDs from AUR with "$ sudo abs".  i assumed that the REPOS=() in /etc/abs.conf would be defined in pacman.conf so i added some that are supposed to contain AUR packages (archlinuxfr and archstuff) which i had previously obtained packages from.  apparently this approach failed because i was unable to find slim-cursor after $ sudo updatedb and $ locate slim-cursor.

Concerning abs.conf:
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ABS … 2Fabs.conf

now the ABS tree holds PKGBUILDS for the repository packages, I don't believe it also syncs community supported PKGBUILDS in the [unsupported] repository?

slim-cursor is a patched version of slim to allow for custom cursors.

Simple way without abs is to just grab this:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/slim- … sor.tar.gz

tar -zxvf slim-cursor.tar.gz
cd slim-cursor
makepkg

and then, as root:

pacman -U slim-cursor-1.3.1-4-(i686 or x86_64).pkg.tar.gz

to use makepkg, you will need to have the base-devel group installed.

*edit* aaaaand I just totally misunderstood that you already did all this, lol. Glad to hear it still builds properly on x86_64 though

I am curious what PKGBUILD you tried to install the first time though, that package obviously needs the patch too.

*editagain*

slim from [extra] it seems, bugreport made:
