Hi,
I'm afraid that the line 16 of your PKGBUILD file isn't needed and causes the next error:
* PKGBUILD:
...
15 conflicts=('initscripts')
16 install=initscripts-splash.install
17 source=(ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/other/initscripts/initscripts-${pkgver}-${pkgrel}.tar.gz
...
* ERROR:
==> ERROR: Install scriptlet (initscripts-splash.install) does not exist.
Please, fix it as soon as possible, if it turns out I'm right, or tell me what I've done wrong, otherwise.
Best regards! :-)
This is not needed anymore. No need for asking updates
See here: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27916
The md5sums seem to be incorrect and gave me an error. I ran makepkg -g first to redo the md5sums. Then pasted the THREE md5sums in the PKGBUILD over the two that are currently there. Problem solved, it installed fine.
please updated to 2009.07-3, this is very important for filesystem (2009.07-1), udev (141-5) and syslog-ng (3.0.3-2) - will be breakage
following up on my last comment, i've posted a working PKGBUILD of splashy that does not need this separate initscripts package.
http://mess.iphitus.org/splashy.tar.gz
There is no need to repackage the entire initscripts. Note how the initscripts are repackaged, totally unchanged. The whole point of allowing sourcable function scripts is so that you don't need to repackage the initscripts.
Add the "splash" and "splash.conf" files to the splashy PKGBUILD - it'll still work perfectly. That way you don't need to update it for every initscripts change.
Wouldn't it be better to simply use the line: replaces=('initscripts')? Rather than having to pacman -Rd and then pacman -U the built package manually.
initscripts-splashy 2009.03-2 ChangeLog:
- Update from upstream
Did a manually update of this package myself and it works fine with initscripts-2009.03-2 but shutdown still shows the same behaviour.
Regards
André
Any chance for an update anytime soon?

André
OK, so the splash screen at shutdown works again?
Regards
André
new initscripts fixes my "GDM Failed" errors on shutdown.
New initscripts again 2009-03.
Thanks for the update :). Shutdown is still a problem though.
Regards
André
Release 2009.01:
- Update from upstream
New initscripts 2009.01 is out.
Regards
André
I can confirm that with the shutdown. In my case I see the shutdown screen for like half second and then the screen goes black for a few seconds and then my machine reboots. With the 2008.08 the screen was there all the time and just before reboot I saw the shutdown list (terminal).

André
shutdown/reboot dont work
Release 2008.09-2:
- Update from upstream
