Cant compile truecrypt module from AUR with 2.6.18 kernel.

Hi, I've been using truecrypt with 2.6.17-ARCH kernel before and was going to recompile it after upgrading to 2.6.18-ARCH but it wont compile.

I'm using this PKGBUILD
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … =1&ID=4298

I've changed the kernver variable to 2.6.18-ARCH and even tried to download the kernel from kernel.org and compile using those headers (setting kernver to 2.6.18)

I hope someone could patch this PKGBUILD soon? Not sure how to get in touch with the person making the build if the first place.

not sure what the problem could be, but the last lines of the output while running makepkg looks like this.

You just did. smile The usual and more reliable way to communicate with an AUR packager is via AUR comments, but the forum generally works too.

Thanks for letting me know - I'll look into it straight away.

Hey, thanks! :-)

I was going to write a reply on the AUR page, but I had to register and I got the feeling nobody was watching that page regulary anyway.

OK, it's now working again. Thanks to senneth on the Truecrypt forum for the patch.
