I'm in the same boat, taken up 'maintaining' two orphaned packages the other day but nothing complicated. Go for it if you want to have a go!

I'll give it a try then but i doubt it will amount to much..don't know the first thing about pkgbuild so ima have to read the wiki alot and look at a bunch of examples before i could start

I can assure you that no one was born with the knowledge how to create a PKGBUILD :-)
Have a look at this one for minecraft: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mi/m … t/PKGBUILD It doesn't look very complex, does it?

Let me know if there's any issues, it seems to work fine here! My first PKGBUILD that's needed more than a simple one line install command, anyone can feel free to suggest improvements!

well the first time i ran it i had some sort of strip error? i can't really say cause i don't know what it was and when i came back after i finished some work to repeat the process it seemed you updated the package and now lib32-glibc is a depedency...i use a 32bit system though...do we need to  make a 32 and 64bit pkgbuild?

Okay so out of curiousity i downloaded your pkgbuild as i can't install it with packer with that lib32 dep. and i commented that out and got this

seems this pkgbuild is really only for x86_64 and i only have x686 anyways this is pretty much all foriegn to me..

Re: Minecraft and World Painter AUR suggestion

didn't get  a chance to do much but i did find the source code...would it be better to build it with that?
