Arch Linux

The updated package is on aur4.

I dont' know what's the best practice reagard this point, panth0r.
If you tell me that this is the best thing to do, for me it's ok and i proceed to add ruby-coderay in the dependencies, even tought makepkg fails.
According to this:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=149313
You're right, so i'll proceed.
Thanks for pointing this out.

I may not be understanding you correctly, but you certainly can add packages from the AUR to the PKGBUILD's dependencies array; makepkg will simply fail if dependencies aren't found (and, to me, this sounds like a "Good Thing," I'd like to have a package's dependencies met so I'm not installing something that won't work).

Moreover, if you're using at least one popular pacman wrapper/AUR helper, you'll be asked to install unmet dependencies before moving forward with an installation, for example (snipped output follows and I know I'm the worst kind of Arch user to use Yaourt):

==> iowolfet-hg dependencies:
- mesa (already installed)
- libxext (already installed)
- enemy-territory (building from AUR)
- mercurial (package found)

Yes, it is normal.
ruby-coderay is found only in AUR, and you have to install it by hand, since i cannot add it to dependencis.
You should "yaourt -S ruby-coderay" in order to get arcadia work.
I'm going to add this note in post-install.

Arcadia isn't starting for me.

I did:

yaourt -S arcadia

and it properly installed arcadia and ruby.

Yet when I attempt to start arcadia it complains that it cannot find 'coderay'.

Whatever you did worked! Thanks!

Fixed compilation.

I get the error when trying to install. I enter:

yaourt -S arcadia

The build starts, then the error happens. See the following:

Hi mrunion.
Sorry, but i'm not sure i've understand your question.
When exactly do you get this error?

Sorry for my "noobishness", but how do you get past the error message:

ERROR: Use --install-dir or --user-install but not both
