[SOLVED] Problems installing gtk-engine-murrine-git from the AUR

Hi there, I'm rather new to Arch.
Today I tried to install the gtk-engine-murrine-git package from the AUR. Upon compiling with

makepkg -s -i --asroot

I received this error:

You must have automake 1.7.x installed to compile .
Install the appropriate package for your distribution,
or get the source tarball at http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/automake/
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

So I went and installed automake-1.7 from the AUR. When I tried to compile it after that I got another error:

I scrolled through the comments and saw that there was a fix:

I solved the error that stackptr described by adding a patch for automake-1.14 just like the other two patches and adding it to the PKGBUILD. Here is a copy of these files:

automake-1.14.patch : http://pastebin.com/D5anhe8v
PKGBUILD : http://pastebin.com/ngMW8v53

I went and did everything like he said, only to receive another error:

    murrine ... Skipped
    automake-1.12.patch ... Passed
    automake-1.13.patch ... Passed
    automake-1.14.patch ... FAILED
==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check!

After a little googling I found out that I can regenerate the md5sums like that:

makepkg -g >> PKGBUILD --asroot

After doing that I again tried to compile it and it threw this error:

patching file autogen.sh
patching file autogen.sh
(Patch is indented 4 spaces.)
patching file autogen.sh
Hunk #1 FAILED at 16.
1 out of 1 hunk FAILED -- saving rejects to file autogen.sh.rej
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

I really don't know what this should even mean. I hope someone in here can help me with this.

Re: [SOLVED] Problems installing gtk-engine-murrine-git from the AUR

Why are you using '--asroot'?

Post a link to this thread in the comments https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gtk- … rrine-git/

Re: [SOLVED] Problems installing gtk-engine-murrine-git from the AUR

I'm using --asroot because I am using su while I compile because I have my AUR packages in /pkgs/ and the root is the only one that has power there.
Edit: I posted the comment.

Re: [SOLVED] Problems installing gtk-engine-murrine-git from the AUR

i think i'm missing something here.
why are you compiling gtk murrine engine from aur?
it's in community.

also i'd recommend using some aur helper. i've been rather happy with yaourt though i heard it belittled many times.

Oh man, you are right. I didn't expect it to be in the official repos because the name sounded so special. I now install it and everything works fine.
Thank you.
