Evolvotron - application not present anymore in AUR :(

Hi guys,

the application in subject (Evolvotron) was present in AUR, as reported by its web site http://www.bottlenose.net/share/evolvotron/download.htm.
But now, if I search for it in AUR it seems not present anymore Is there a reason for that? Can we put it again in AUR?

I also tried to compile the last version (0.6.3) from sources, downloaded from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/evolvotron/ but I have this error, can you help please to run Evolvotron in Arch Linux?

[saverio@home evolvotron]$

Here's the old PKGBUILD file from AUR3. It builds fine on my end and you can upload it back to AUR if you want to maintain it.

Re: Evolvotron - application not present anymore in AUR :(

Hi metak,

using your PKGBUILD and the command makepkg I was able to discover that there was a missing package (boost) on my system, for this reason the build process failed. After that I installed boost and then launched makepkg again, the build succeeded and the binary package was created.

I want to better understand the PKGBUILD system, then I'll try to maintain evolvotron in AUR (considering also the AUR rules).

Thanks a lot!
