Why not use the PKGBUILD in the AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=41362

Edit:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:306 (message):
  pkg-config tool not found

That is the first error... "pacman -S base-devel" will get you the basic tools for building things.

If you used makepkg you would already be informed of missing dependancies. Start building packages properly.

leercrak · 2010-12-15 04:11:27

i cant see why

[leercrak@leercrak ~]$ cd awesome
[leercrak@leercrak awesome]$ ls
awesome.desktop awesome.install PKGBUILD
[leercrak@leercrak awesome]$ sudo makepkg --asroot
==> Making package: awesome 3.4.8-2 (Tue Dec 14 20:09:20 PST 2010)

==> Checking Buildtime Dependencies...
==> ERROR: Could not resolve all dependencies.
[leercrak@leercrak awesome]$

i just downloaded cairo off the aur tarred it made all the packages then cd'd to the tar pachage it made and did sudo make sudo make install ./autogen.sh

do i need to restart >.>

umm... what...

Read the wiki article on how to build and install packages from the AUR.

Short version
1) download the source files from the AUR
2) makepkg (note no sudo there, that is bad...)
3) sudo pacman -U <built package file>

Done. Then pacman will actually know about the files on your system. Running "sudo make install" just put a bunch of files onto your system that are unknown to pacman probably overwrote files that pacman did know about...

leercrak · 2010-12-15 04:39:50

yoy. its going perfectly atm and the problem was i remember pacman -U whatnot but i forget which situations/packages i use these terms. Thank you for your help

edit: probably the last problem

for this i would just go and read the README in cairo-xcb and enable some things?

could i be missing some font packages for the the draw_text_extents/draw_font_new but that doesnt make sense since it would have told me if i was missing them.i have not configured anything custom yet.

anrxc · 2010-12-15 17:08:53

You need cairo-xcb, like makepkg told you. You obviously didn't install it right.

well see i said the steps i took to install it but i must have missed something and i have tried installing it again so i was wondering if there were any configuration problems i had to do during its install.

leercrak · 2010-12-16 05:07:34

Well i think the problem is i did ./autogen.sh instead of ./configure. I deleted everything manually by ls -R /* | grep cairo. And from there started deleting cairo directories and whatnot but to no avail. Aw well kde is still great

You really should try following the advice that people here proffer:
