It's running on the latest Arch now.

Thanks, is fixed!

Hi, could I please ask about adding opensp as a dependency? I see it was mentioned in the past, and on a fresh Arch Linux container it appears to still be required. I got a build error suggesting I install ONSGMLS.

Is fixed :)

One of the patche soes no longer apply.

Hello, I changed the dependencies to use mksh instead of the original ksh (the build is not a big mess, and it's compatible).

@bbaovanc: Yes, I can rename the sh script.

Update: it works for me now on the latest commit. Another thing I noticed: can /usr/bin/startxsession.sh be renamed to something less general, like maybe startcdesession?

I had to install opensp just like strangeautomaton said (it should be a git dependency probably). But then I got another error near the end:

Has anyone else seen this? What should I do?

Cknight70: I don't have onsgmis on my build system at all as far as I can tell... but if it requires it ( perhaps a new dependency in the git sources??? ) you shouldn't need to install openjade, you should be able to get away with just the opensp package which is the part of it that contains onsgmis.

When trying to build it said onsgmls was missing, installing OpenJade from the Arch repos it built
