I don't if I'm right in this forum, but i'm trying to compile xawtv on arch, but I keep on getting this error:
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/greg/xawtv-3.81/arch-i686-linux'

make[1]: *** [console/fbtv] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/greg/xawtv-3.81/arch-i686-linux'

Anyone an idea why?

well from my recent experiance compiling or trying to compile 300+ packages _ctype_b errors relate to some sort of code error in the application. you have to track down the error in the source code and patch. unfortunately i cannot help you in this respect as i am a coding idiot for the most part.

Make a fresh copy of Xfree86 and all your problems are gone.
These errors are all Xfree86 related. See my kde3.1 thread.
apt-get install arch

wiith regards to the errors that one gets when rebuilding xfree86 can you elaborate on where the ";" would go? I am not a script person at all so i need a better idea of where i would put the ";"'s.
if you have an example that would help. I am interested to see if a few more of the packages i had to put aside would build after rebuilding xfree.

If you can piont me to the errors (I have a freshly build Xfree86, non pacman style) I can send them or try to make patches out of it.
It's strange that Arch does have the new bison ánd a working Xfree ...
apt-get install arch

this will fix the problems, it's a patch. Maybe a good idea to use this patch in the current tree/official version?

wow thank you! i will have to grab the patch when i get home.
Yeah i think it is odd that arch has the new bison and a functioning xfree without patches. I will have to talk to apeiro about this.
also i noticed some kde packages you made in /incoming. could you provide the PKGBUILD(s) for those? Thanks.

will upload them (and the rest of the kde3.1 packages) when my arch box likes the internet again ...
