 pkgrel=1 
 pkgdesc="A roll your own python wm" 
 url="http://pywm.sourceforge.net" 
 depends=('python' 'x-server' 'fltk')
 makepedpends=('pyrex' 'python')
 source=(http://dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/pywm/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz) 
md5sums=('8266aa28be39c773b62b5f90c33e7b6f')

 
 build() { 
   cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
python setup.py install --prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr 
 }
