For what it's worth, I was able to install 2.6.1 with the only PKGBUILD changes being:
- The version had to be changed
- The md5s had to be changed, of course
- The latest release extracts with an extra "carrier" directory around it, so the cd command had to take that into account

2.6.1 is out, can you update please?
Comment by: kilroo on Thu, 25 Jun 2009 03:54:40 +0000
I thought this might help when you have time to update to 2.5.7. I'm not entirely clear on whether this is a problem with Carrier that their devs need to fix or an incompatibility with makepkg that we need to keep a patch for?:

Is anyone planning on updating this? I'd really like to install carrier.
Comment by: Caprica on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 09:18:42 +0000
sorry ZachGates, didnt see your post will look into some sort of notification system, for future. I will look into your problem in the next couple of days dont have access to my arch machine until then
Comment by: Ranguvar on Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:32:42 +0000
Reporting out of date so that the maintainer will see this below :) Apologies in advance.

I have the same error as ZachGates.

Comment by: Caprica on Fri, 17 Apr 2009 00:46:51 +0000
No sorry, simple mistake. Ill fix this tomorrow when I am home
Comment by: ConnorBehan on Sat, 11 Apr 2009 00:12:26 +0000
@Caprica: Thanks for switching it to libwebkit. This is the only webkit app I use so I didn't realize that webkitgtk is out of date. However, is there a reason you made it version 2.5.0? The newest version is 2.5.5
Comment by: Ranguvar on Wed, 08 Apr 2009 02:04:53 +0000
Thanks, Caprica :) I don't use this app myself, but it's a great alterative to the rather brain-dead approach of the Pidgin devs (sorry, but true). Good luck with the maintaining :)
Comment by: Caprica on Mon, 06 Apr 2009 01:48:36 +0000
I have just taken over maintaince of the package, It is now using libwebkit as a dependecy and is up to date. Please suggest any inprovements and enjoy
Comment by: jalu on Mon, 06 Apr 2009 01:46:58 +0000
@Caprica - Great. Let's get some momentum on this one and get it into community.
Comment by: jalu on Wed, 18 Mar 2009 04:33:21 +0000
Switching wegkitgtk to libwebkit seems to have worked well for me.

This is a very important package. Would anybody be willing to sign up as a maintainer, and maybe get this into the community repository. I'll even do it myself, but I'll need some help. I've never maintained a package before.
Comment by: anadgouda on Thu, 26 Feb 2009 04:30:44 +0000
I replaced webkitgtk with libwebkit in PKGBUILD to use webkit from the extra repository.
Comment by: killajoe on Wed, 18 Feb 2009 08:37:37 +0000
libwebkit does not work, i need to build webkitgtk... but change the version to 2.5.4 works ;) Please update the PKGBUILD
Comment by: killajoe on Tue, 03 Feb 2009 11:21:28 +0000
webkitgtk-svn does not build too ....
Comment by: blasse on Thu, 29 Jan 2009 22:33:25 +0000
Also, there is no more webkitgtk-nightly pkg, only webkitgtk-svn remained.
Comment by: blasse on Sun, 04 Jan 2009 10:04:09 +0000
libwebkit from extra works fine instead of webkit-gtk. Someone could change this dependency.
Comment by: TuxToaster on Wed, 17 Sep 2008 13:37:09 +0000
Spudgun: Try installing webkitgtk-svn (or webkitgtk-nightly)
Comment by: Spudgun on Wed, 17 Sep 2008 10:22:33 +0000
Can't get the 'webkitgtk' dependency.
Comment by: TuxToaster on Fri, 25 Jul 2008 22:42:17 +0000
Package has been updated to the latest version (2.4.3), and I've included several of the fixes below.

Please comment if you have any problems building this package.
Comment by: patogen on Thu, 17 Jul 2008 12:01:07 +0000
Also, this needs the gettext package, so we should have:

depends=('startup-notification' 'gtkspell' 'libxss' 'gstreamer0.10' 'dbus-glib>=0.73' 'webkitgtk' 'gettext')

I could not get it to compile without it

AOL changes ICQ protocol.

This patch makes libpurple mimic the exact version numbers sent by the official ICQ6 client.

Comment by: hendeca on Fri, 30 May 2008 18:53:18 +0000
TuxToaster's method works. Thanks.
Comment by: TuxToaster on Fri, 30 May 2008 00:24:41 +0000
I was experiencing the same problem, but was able to get Carrier to build by adding --add-missing to the automake line as follows:

automake --add-missing || return 1

I also had to add --disable-nm to the configure flags, as I don't use NetworkManager.

HTH
Comment by: StarChox on Fri, 30 May 2008 00:10:11 +0000
Same here, i install all the dependencies, but it fail. Using both (webkitgtk-svn, webkitgtk-nightly)
Comment by: FrozenFox on Wed, 28 May 2008 22:15:47 +0000
The build fails for me as well, same message as TuxStorm. I set it to webkit svn.

No, I wrote webkitgtk so people could use either webkitgtk-svn or webkitgtk-nightly. Both of those packages provide webkitgtk.
Comment by: SickHate on Tue, 27 May 2008 00:10:24 +0000
isnt it webkitgtk-svn?

v1.6.0
