linux-libre in arch?

Hi, there's possible to get quelinux-libre kernel in arch?

I have search but i only find ways to use linux-libre in debian and sons with their repositories. There is a way to use that free kernel in arch? cos i didn't find it in aur.

and i don't know how to compile a kernel.

Thanks a lot

Probably as simple as making your own PKGBUILD from it by modifying the kernel26 one.

linux-libre in the AUR. Eventhough it's out of date, it should be easy enough to update the PKGBUILD.
