@al3hex Hmm, glances -v shows 1.7.2a so I guess that is an unreleased alpha because they don't have a release yet https://github.com/nicolargo/glances/releases nor is it in NEWS. Sorry about that!

Well, my PKGBUILD is 1,5 years old! Just use the PKGBUILD provided here, it works very well.

Evenafter applying Army's PKGBUILD, I get the error:
./autogen.sh: No such file or directory

Looks like this is a bug which has to be dealt with upstream. Would you mind reporting it?

FIXED license -- should have been LGPL
ADDED PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2

Not sure what to do about the docs part. --docdir= is not working even if I specify --datadir= first

Please change the license line from gpl to GPL.
Please change ./configure --prefix=/usr to ./configure --prefix=/usr --docdir=/usr/share (hm, this doesn't seem to have any effect thou). That way docs are supposed to be installed into /usr/share/doc which is default in Archlinux.

It can cause some confusing when compiling glances and the test fails because it's using Python3 instead of Python2 but glances will still work with the changing of the #! line. A quick fix for the tests to pass is to point configure to use python2. I changed the configure like in PKGBUILD like so and the error is appeared as Python2 was used by configure.

./configure --prefix=/usr PYTHON=/usr/bin/python2 || return 1

Again not a huge need but it just makes things a little cleaner.

Francois_B:

I just fixed both of the problems that you described. I also changed the self-reference within the script itself to show the appropriate script name.

glances is installed in /usr/local/bin instead of /usr/bin which is more appropriate.
Moreover, I would rather see glances as executable name instead of glances.py.

Thanks.
