error trying to build kernel26zen-git

I get this message when i try to build kernel26zen-git.

Failed... Your source tree might be broken. Run 'make mrproper' in src/zen-sources to clean it up

However, I follow the instructions and run make mrproper in the zen-sources directory, re-run the kernel26zen package and still get the same error. Is there something I must do that I am not aware of to make it compile properly? I had this kernel working once before. Thanks ahead of time.

Did you try to switch to master branch ?

I no i just used the standard downloaded the package in AUR via yaourt, and let it run. I dont think it switched to the master branch.

Then you may want to try the master branch, I had better results in the past with this one.

Simply edit the PKGBUILD:

_branch="v2.6.24-rc6-zen0"
#_branch="master"

to become:

#_branch="v2.6.24-rc6-zen0"
_branch="master"

do you try to do it by yourself?
if so just do
"git clone git://repo.or.cz/linux-2.6/zen-sources.git"
and you'll have the current version
2.6.24-rc6 is old and i dont know if it is possible to download it

That's what switching to master branch is supposed to do...
