[new] Jacman 0.1 - Java GUI front-end to Pacman

Hi,

The PKGBUILD is now uploaded. For more info about Jacman, see:

I hope it's ok.

I don't know if it's only me, but when I run jacman I get sth like this:

initialized
realize

Hmm... I know that some people have got this working. Perhaps they didn't use the pkgbuild and went straight for the prebuilt package.

I'd recommend the latter. Goto http://www.comp.leeds.ac.uk/andyr/software/jacman and install the jacman-0.1-1.pkg.tar.gz with pacman. Should work fine.

Used pkgbuild here with no problems.

Ok. The package works as it should. Please fix a typo on your page where it says to download jacman-0.1-1.tar.gz instead of jacman-0.1-1.pkg.tar.gz.

If it was written in C/C++ and GTK then I'd probably still be writing the damn thing!
