[SOLVED] Stumpwm ERROR: Missing package() function

When installing stumpwm
I installed the following packages from AUR in this order:
- sbcl
- clx-git
- cl-ppcre

When I go to install stumpwm-git

$ makepkg -sri
==> ERROR: Missing package() function in ~/build-repos/stumpwm-git/PKGBUILD

Yes, it's a horribly outdated PKGBUILD which should never have been uploaded to the new AUR in it's current form. That "maintainer" has a few few packages like that.

You will need to fix the PKGBUILD if you want to use it.

See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Creating_packages for a guide on writing PKGBUILDs.

I meant to post back here, there is a much better PKGBUILD on the pre-AUR4 archive.

http://pkgbuild.com/git/aur-mirror.git/tree/stumpwm-git

You may have better luck with that.

I have no idea why the current "maintainer" opted to upload such an old PKGBUILD instead.
