So I'm trying to install a GUI Frontend for pacman, either guzuta or gtkpacman. I tried pacman -S guzuta (gtkpacman). I also have the community repositories open. Is there something else I need to do to get these?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

they in aur, not community http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php
or install via yaourt or aurbuild [search forums]

Okay, I think I figured out all this AUR stuff. Now, I've come to another snag. I started the PKGBUILD for Guzuta, and I needed pynealpm, so I found it and AUR and started to do that. But I need libalpm for Pynealpm, and I have no idea what that is. It is in neither pacman nor AUR and all I can find through google is some vague references to it, but nothing on what it is or how to get it.

Try makepkg -s next time...it should grab all dependencies through pacman.
Try man makepkg for more.

It still can't resolve the dependency for libalpm.

Reading the comments on AUR, it seems like both projects are outdated, and might be dead.
There is no such thing as a libalpm package, since libalpm is included in the pacman package.
> pacman -Ql pacman |grep -E "(lib|include)/"
pacman /usr/include/alpm.h
pacman /usr/include/alpm_list.h
pacman /usr/lib/libalpm.a
pacman /usr/lib/libalpm.so
pacman /usr/lib/libalpm.so.1
pacman /usr/lib/libalpm.so.1.0.0
pacman roulette : pacman -S $(pacman -Slq | LANG=C sort -R | head -n $((RANDOM % 10)))

So you may be finde, removing those dependencies from the PKGBUILD?
Hail to the thief!

I might be having a different problem all together. I tried doing makepkg -S for aurbuild. I am still having the same kind of problem. It's missing a dependency, then it checks Buildtime Dependencies. Then I get an error, could not resolve all dependencies.

-s, not -S .. install yaourt
pacman -U http://repo.archlinux.fr/i686/yaourt-0.8.3-1.pkg.tar.gz
then use yaourt liek you would pacman ... like, yaourt -S pkgname

It's makepkg -s (lower-case 's')
