Problem building Openbox

I just reintalled Arch and when I tried building openbox-cvs with the PKGBUILD from the AUR I got this error.

./configure: line 21108: syntax error near unexpected token `GLIB,'
./configure: line 21108: `PKG_CHECK_MODULES(GLIB, glib-2.0)'
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

Any ideas of what may be causing it?  :?

Re: Problem building Openbox

check if you have every file (you need: PKGBUILD, gtkcolors.diff, openbox.install and patchy.patch, place them in /var/abs/local/openbox-cvs/ ) look here: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/openb … enbox-cvs/  for the files.

Or maybe there's something wrong with glib or gcc :] but the former is most likely the solution to your problem. 

(ps. I used the same pkgbuild from the aur and it built just fine )

Re: Problem building Openbox

you need to install glib2 to build it, i will update the depends on the PKGBUILD in AUR now.

[...] i will update the depends on the PKGBUILD in AUR now.

No need to do so. You already have gtk2 in there as a dependency which depends on atk which in turn depends on glib2...

Re: Problem building Openbox

I already have glib2 installed and I'm building it the correct way and it still doesn't work. 
Before I reinstalled Arch it built just fine.  :?

EDIT: Here's the complete log.

Thank you. That's what was missing.
