Ok, I was gonna try and update this seemingly simple AUR package and adopt it. I wanted to make it a daily snapshot for kernels >= 2.6.27. But it seems I am in over my head. First problem is I can't for the life of me figure out how this diff -u *.patch file I made won't work? Secondly even if I use makepkg -e with the modified Makefile I still get an error about permissions. So here is my updated PKGBUILD, and patch I created.
(the old PKGBUILD is still on the AUR)
Upated PKGBUILD The one I wish to use.

You need to talk to arew264 - he says he has it working: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=66061

Well, I will ask one more time. Can anyone help me to explain why this PKGBUILD is giving me so much trouble? I would appreciate even the slightest bit of help, you don't have to use compat-wireless to offer PKGBUILD/makepkg advice. I apparently don't know enough about Makfiles to edit them correctly so the source will compile. So if you know anything about Makefile don't hesitate to point out my errors.
This is my modified Makefile, you can grab the original from the source. What is so wrong?

I suppose I will just drop the package and let someone else worry about it.

forget it, I fixed my issue. Orphaned, have at it.

usually when you fix your issue... you post about how you fixed it so others who may have a similiar problem and can search and find the answer.
