i downloaded the tarbell files, made a build file in my /home/tevin , then rand the following command and got the following

[tevin@baxxan ~]$ ~/build

[tevin@baxxan ~]$ cd ~/build

[tevin@baxxan build]$ tar -xvzf nspulginwrapper-flash.tar.xz

tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[tevin@baxxan build]$


why is it doing this? i followed the intructions exactly?

Should be,

tar xzf nspluginwrapper-flash.tar.gz
cd nspluginwrapper-flash
makepkg -s
pacman -U nspluginwrapper-flash-10.1.53-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

Double check the file names before running the commands.

edit: Good catch Zeist.

when i typed in your correct i got this

[tevin@baxxan ~]$ tar xzf nspluginwrapper-flash.tar.gz
tar (child): nspluginwrapper-flash.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar (child): Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
[tevin@baxxan ~]$

why is this doing this to me? is my kernel broken?

Did you download the file?

EDIT:

wget http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nspluginwrapper-flash/nspluginwrapper-flash.tar.gz && tar xvf nspluginwrapper-flash.tar.gz && cd nspluginwrapper-flash && makepkg -s && sudo pacman -U nspluginwrapper-flash*.pkg.tar.xz

I'd say the user is broken if they can't read error messages that blatantly state what the problem is.

From your previous comment the file is in ~/build.
