aasaver not building

I tried building aasaver using PKGBUILD from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16522 but I am getting following error:

==> Entering fakeroot environment...
==> Starting build()...
  File "./configure", line 27
    '''.replace('%s', PROGRAM_NAME)
      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

I tried removing the '.' at this line in src/aasaver-0.3.2/configure file but it keeps coming back since the tar file is untarred everytime. Also I am not sure if removing '.' will work. Please help.

Re: aasaver not building

That package is rather old and intended for KDE3 .

from aasaver homepage

NOTE This content is the KDE 3 version of the screensaver. I have not uploaded the KDE 4 port here because it is now included with KDE 4 in the kdeartwork module.

Edit :

While it may be interesting / a learning experience to solve the problem, if all you want is the functionality using the native kde4 aasaver would be  much easier.

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.


(A works at time B)  && (time C > time B ) ≠  (A works at time C)

Re: aasaver not building

Thanks for this important information. I agree that there is no point in persuing this package.
