@sacarde I'm not sure why you'd need the "hd" binary from this package (which symlinks to hexdump), because it's already part of util-linux. If you edit the PKGBUILD I uploaded, you can have it install that utility as well. Pay careful attention to the comments in build().

hi, is possible to have program: "hd" in this package? tanks

Hi, I'm really addicted to the ncal command, so I was a bit disappointed in not finding it. The "install" target makes a symbolic link to "cal" (and this is a problem), I wrote a patch to remove only these instructions: this way the standard "cal" can happily cohabit together with the "ncal" on my installation. I put this patch in the same directory of PKGBUILD: === archlinux-ncal.diff ======================================================================= diff -Naur ubuntubsdmainutils/usr.bin/ncal/Makefile archlinuxbsdmainutils/usr.bin/ncal/Makefile --- ubuntubsdmainutils/usr.bin/ncal/Makefile 2010-11-28 14:23:02.000000000 +0100 +++ archlinuxbsdmainutils/usr.bin/ncal/Makefile 2011-08-20 00:24:28.634337652 +0200 @@ -6,6 +6,3 @@ topdir=../.. include $(topdir)/config.mk -install-2: - (cd $(bindir); ln -sf ncal cal) - (cd $(mandir); ln -sf ncal.1 cal.1) =============================================================================================== and I changed the PKGBUILD to use it: === PKGBUILD ================================================================================== # Contributor: Tusooa Zhu <tusooa@gmail.com> pkgname=bsdmainutils pkgver=8.2.2 pkgrel=3 pkgdesc="Some BSD-style programs." arch=('i686' 'x86_64') url="http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/bsdmainutils" license=('GPL') depends=() makedepends=(make) source=(http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/b/$pkgname/${pkgname}_$pkgver.tar.gz archlinux-ncal.diff) build() { cd "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver" msg "Starting make..." for i in debian/patches/* ; do patch -Np1 < "$i" ; done || return 1 patch -Np1 < ../../archlinux-ncal.diff for i in col colcrt colrm column hexdump look ul ; do rm -rf usr.bin/"$i" ; done || return 1 make && make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install || return 1 } md5sums=('e884ca823d4d04efa1de596446ecb65f' '1c32a629d33fa4c5ca9f1ddccce717b4') ===============================================================================================
