gperf makedepends needed.

Thanks, fixed.

I had problems to download things from translationproject.org due to an untrusted certificate. I circumvented this with some pretty unclean tricks. But you should download gnulib-stuff the way it is done here (that part is not unclean):

Apparently I needed flex to generate said files. But I need bison to install flex. What?! I managed though by installing binary-only version of flex core/flex.

Thanks! Fixed now.

This doesn't seem to build for me:

If I comment out the patch line in prepare(), I get these errors (so wget and help2man should be in build dep):

This doesn't seem to build for me: configure.ac:176: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_GNU_M4 If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1 ./bootstrap: autoreconf failed
