How do install mkzftree

I am trying to make my own version of geexbox but the iso creation script requires a program called "mkzftree".  I can't seem to find any information on how to install this for arch.  Is it part of some package?

Re: How do install mkzftree

Took a quick look at the forums... found a thread that might be of some use to you: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=2206

Judging from the thread, you need to make a change in the PKGBUILD file, and I think in the end it should look like this:

pkgname=zisofs-tools 
pkgver=1.0.6 
pkgrel=1 
pkgdesc="Utilities for creating compressed CD-ROM filesystems." 
pkgurl="http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/fs/zisofs" 
depends=('glibc') 
source=($pkgurl/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz) 

build() { 
   cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver 
   ./configure --prefix=/usr 
   make || return 1 
   make INSTALLROOT=$startdir/pkg install 
}

I changed what needed to be changed as per that thread and also updated the version. Just make the package with that PKGBUILD and you should be set!

Thanks go to rasat for this PKGBUILD!
