Hi to all!
I followed this instructions but I cannot install splashy.
If I try:
yaourt -S splashy-full
it needs automake 1.10 and I get:
=> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build automake1.10.
What should I do?

It will help to know the actual error(s) you received in the lines preceding:
=> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build automake1.10.
Mu Empire.

checking whether autoconf is installed... no
configure: error: Autoconf 2.60 or better is required.
Please make sure it is installed and in your PATH.
But I have 2.69-1 autoconf.

do you have "base-devel" package installed ?

I've just installed it. What now happens:
/usr/bin/makepkg: line 1293: xz: command not found
bsdtar: Write error
==> ERROR: Unable to create package file.
==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build automake1.10.
==> Restart building automake1.10 ? [y/N]

What happens when you try and download the tarball and install without using yaourt?

It says that it require automake1.10.
When I try install automake1.10 from tarball:
/usr/bin/makepkg: line 1293: xz: command not found
bsdtar: Write error
==> ERROR: Unable to create package file.
I have exactly the same error.

You mean "build with makepkg", not "install", right?
In general, installing directly without makepkg/pacman is a *bad* idea.

Yes that's what I meant. Make and then pacman -U *.pkg.tar.gz

It even doesn't creates package.

Modify the PKGBUILD so it doesn't look for that specific version of automake.
Instead of
pkgname=splashy-full
pkgver=20120224
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A boot splashing system"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=splashy/splashy.git;a=summary"
license=('GPL')
depends=('glib2' 'directfb')
makedepends=('automake1.10' 'git')
make it
pkgname=splashy-full
pkgver=20120224
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="A boot splashing system"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=splashy/splashy.git;a=summary"
license=('GPL')
depends=('glib2' 'directfb')
makedepends=('automake' 'git')

Have you installed xz ?

Gamer, yes.
chamber, I get this:
checking for pkg-config >= 0.14.0...
testing pkg-config... found 0.27
./autogen.sh: line 154: --print-ac-dir: command not found.
Checking for required M4 macros...
libtool.m4 not found

pkg.m4 not found
Checking for forbidden M4 macros...
***Error***: some autoconf macros required to build Package
were not found in your aclocal path, or some forbidden

ACLOCAL_FLAGS?
What does it means?

It means that the AUR package is out of sync and orphaned, ie has not been updated in a while.
In work at the minute so I cannot do any testing, someone else will have to chip in.

This seems to replace splashy-full http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=58779
I have already installed and configured it following this guide https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Splashy
I got no errors in any of the steps, but the splash just don't show up.
Any ideas?
