This is a program to use and access Webshots where I among many store and display photos online and can find same.
I have tried compiling myself but just not working.

What errors were you getting?

bump.
Edit: found a PKGBUILD on the site http://www.webilder.org/static/download … r/PKGBUILD
I keep getting positively surprised to see more and more Archlinux PKGBUILDS on sites.

I expect that's the same one that's in the AUR already:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … =1&ID=3708
Orphaned at the moment - maybe you'd like to maintain it?

Hi,
I'm the developer of Webilder and happen to be Arch user myself. I prepare PKGBUILDs anyway, so I can maintain it.
How do I get the permission?

Well, since it is an orphaned package, it is quite easy. Just sign into the AUR, search for "webilder", and click the "Adopt Package" button.

I have never made a PKGBUILD before, so... anyone would like to give me some hints?

I've updated the PKGBUILDs in the download page:

Thank you very much!
Would you like to update the PKGBUILD in AUR?
Offline
Oh!
Could you please tell me how to set it up to automatically change my wallpaper, if I am using XFCE4?
I guess it would look like...
ln -s <the newly downloaded wallpaper> wallpaper.tmp
xfdesktop --reload
(if the XFCE4 wallpaper is configured to "wallpaper.tmp")
Offline
not sure how to start daemon to get background to change?

okay.
after almost 1 year later, I have come to the answer for xfce to work with webilder finally.
you should first install the following packages:
a. webilder-applet
b. xfce4-xfapplet-plugin
c. realpath
and then:
1. "Add New Item" on xfce's panel, select "XfApplet"
2. now XfApplet will ask you to choose an applet. choose "Webilder Desktop Applet"
3. now the icon should change to a camera, right click on it and setup its "Preferences"
4. after that, right click on it again and select "Download Photos"
make sure everything goes fine. you may try to "Browse Collection"
5. create a symbolic link to one of those downloaded photos, and setup your wallpaper to this symbolic link.
6. now, create a shell script with execute permission as follows:
#!/bin/sh
LINK="change this to the absolute path to the symbolic link you just created to the photo"
current=$(realpath $LINK)
dir=$(dirname $current)
next=$(ls $dir/*.jpg | grep -A 1 $current | tail -n 1)
if [ "$next" = "$current" ]; then
next=$(ls $dir/*.jpg | head -n 1)
fi
/bin/rm $LINK
ln -s $next $LINK
# refresh
xfdesktop -reload
7. execute the above script, you should see the wallpaper changes
8. the last step, change "Wallpaper Settings" to "Set a wallpaper by running" in "Advanced" in "Webilder Preferences", and input the absolute path to the script into the text field
9. now you can select "Next Photo" in Webilder's context menu, and see the wallpaper changes
Note that, I can NOT correctly setup Webilder's preferences by its UI, so I edit it directly.
(it's in ~/.webilder/webilder.conf)
