[SOLVED] TigerVNC PKGBUILD broken?

Hi, I wanted to install TigerVNC because the normal VNC (TightVNC) cannot relay games in fullscreen, instead it will just display the desktop.
So I went here

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=29633

and downloaded the PKGBUILD file and did

makepkg -s PKGBUILD

but I got this error:

==> Making package: tigervnc 1.1.90-3 (Tue Jan 24 23:34:27 CET 2012)
==> Checking runtime dependencies...
==> Checking buildtime dependencies...
==> Retrieving Sources...
  -> Found tigervnc-1.1.90.tar.gz
  -> Found xorg-server-1.11.3.tar.bz2
==> ERROR: xorg111.patch was not found in the build directory and is not a URL.

and I suspect the cmakelists.patch file is also missing because it's also "greyed out" on the AUR website mentioned above. Any ideas why those files aren't linked and where they can be downloaded from?

You should download the tarball, not just the PKGBUILD.

Re: [SOLVED] TigerVNC PKGBUILD broken?

Oh thanks, I see.
I basically took the instructions from

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_User_Guidelines#Getting_started

which says
Users can search and download PKGBUILDs from the AUR Web Interface. These PKGBUILDs can be built into installable packages using makepkg, then installed using pacman.
Hence I assumed I only needed to download the PKGBUILD file.

Well, the tarball worked fine, thanks.
