wmii-3.1 - need help building

japetto · 2007-11-16 19:01:33

So I am a long time dwm user and I want to try ruby-wmii which works with wmii-3.1. I modified the current PKGBUILD for wmii-3.5 but when run I get errors (linker couldn't find a library call?). I wasn't sure if it had to do with the current version libixp I have installed, so I also tried an older package as well (libixp-0.1) but same error. Any help would be very appreciated!

PKGBUILD:

use the devel package in AUR. 3.1 is VERY old

or better yet wait a while http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=39053

Hi dolby,

I have already built the devel package, but it does not work with ruby-wmii. All the research that I have done tells me that ruby-wmii only works with wmii-3.1. That's why I am trying to build wmii-3.1.

as codemac said on the node on my previous post wmii devs seem to break backwards compatibility from release to release. maybe try asking in #wmii on oftc. i dont think there are many ppl left around here using wmii...
