Note: The license identifier needs to be updated to be SPDX compliant:

epstool E: GPL is not a valid SPDX license identifier. See https://spdx.org/licenses/ for valid identifiers, or prefix the identifier with 'LicenseRef-', if it is custom.

Regards and thanks for the package!

Updated, but I had to steel the Makefile from epstool 3.08. The new one apparently was made for gsview.

Sorry, fixed.

In your PKGBUILD, you have "prepare" listed twice. The second one should be "package."

You're welcome!

The install directory was not specified correctly. It is probably better to use "${pkgdir}" as the prefix. I uploaded a working PKGBUILD to PasteBin: http://pastebin.com/QYmUw4DR

The download link is broken again. One could use the original source package from the debian repository: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/e/epstool/epstool_3.08+repack.orig.tar.gz Updated and tested PKGBUILD (ready to use) can be found here: http://pastebin.com/xq1m5FMA

The download link is fixed. Thanks, Ambrevar

Download link seems to be broken. Anyway, you can still get the sources from CTAN: http://mirrors.ctan.org/support/ghostscript/ghostgum/epstool-3.08.tar.gz

Thank you, Ambrevar! I've included a (Gentoo) patch.
