Difficulty compiling zen-browser

Hi,

I'm having problems with the patches for zen-browser. I've downloaded the file several times but I still get all the errors. Can someone please let me know where i'm going wrong? I'm using the following commands;

git clone [url]https://aur.archlinux.org/zen-browser.git[/url]
cd zen-browser/
makepkg

Re: Difficulty compiling zen-browser

The package contains some patches, bumped the version to the latest zen-browser but didn't update the patches. They fail to apply, prepare() fails and therefore building isn't even attempted.
=> Contact the AUR package maintainer via the packages comments and please use [code][/code] tags. Edit your post in this regard.
