Updated, uses a new mirror from http://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html , and conflicts with screen.

I had trouble with that source location; there are plenty of mirrors though, and I just downloaded the tarball manually from elsewhere. ;)

Will add conflicts=('screen') soon.

This update should fix that. If you've already installed, no need to upgrade.

1/1) checking for file conflicts [-----------------------------] 100%

rya@bsix:screen-vs $ pacman -Qo /usr/share/info/dir.gz
/usr/share/info/dir.gz is owned by gnupg 1.4.9-4

I am pretty clueless when it comes to man/info files so no idea whats going on, also i think the install script is missing a line to remove the info file.

See the newest screen package in [extra].
Screen doesnt depend on gpm, and libelf use should be avoided.

I couldn't find vertical split in screen-git, so I'm using this and it works very well - it should remain..

Btw, it works on x86_64, so you can add the flag to PKGBUILD.. Could you also add 'patch' to the dependencies. Thanks.

Thanks for pointing that out.

With that in mind, I'll request removal of this package whenever that patchset hits an official release.

Until then, screen-vs should probably remain available for those who want the vsplit function, but who for whatever reason do not wish to use the development version.

Since vertical spliting is part of screen-git i would propose using that one instaed if you need that feature. This patch is not actively maintained. See http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/screen-users/2009-01/msg00026.html and subsequent mails.

Re: an x86_64 flag; I don't have an x86_64 install to test on, but will gladly add one if someone verifies that it does, indeed, work on an x86_64 machine (just the request doesn't tell me anything about whether it works or not.) I don't see any reason it *shouldn't* build, however.

x86_64 flag please?
Comment by: joyfulgirl on Tue, 14 Oct 2008 00:25:05 +0000
Cleaned up the PKGBUILD some.

Also, now with an undefined percentage of more info! (The info file is now included; (1-0)/0 = [undefined; can't divide by 0])

link to source code doesn\'t work. Maybe due the server down.
