Any one managed to install Atom (text editor) from AUR?

I tried 3 versions in AUR
atom-editor
atom-editor-bin (but it's only for 64bit)
atom-editor-git-tagged
none of them would build for me - there were too many errors for me to make sense of.

You can just add this repository to your pacman.conf file and just install it as a normal package.

There are 4 versions: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/?O=0&K=atom-editor
I've just installed atom-editor on my 32-bit Arch with [testing] repos enabled.
