Installing nntpgrab from the AUR

Hi guys

I hope you can help me. I tried to install nntpgrab from the AUR using pacaur. However, after some compiling process I get the following error:

mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/-gtk-target’: Permission denied
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package_nntpgrab-cli().
    Aborting...
:: nntpgrab cleaned

How to fix that? I noticed that the package is not maintained any more. Is there anything wrong with the install script?

Re: Installing nntpgrab from the AUR

The package have not been updated for years and needs some major work. I suggest you write a new PKGBUILD

Edit: Upstream seems to be pretty dead too
