yochananmarqos fixes this and explains the current issues

(I have the base-devel packages for building and curl)

As non root I did

  1. cd ~/Downloads
  2. git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/hdsentinel_gui.git
  3. cd hdsentinel_gui
  4. Then I just replaced the PKGBUILD file for yochananmarqos' https://pastebin.com/4qcbi5im
  5. makepkg -si

I think you can just

  1. mkdir build
  2. cd build
  3. Copy his PKGBUILD into the folder
  4. makepkg -si

I just listed the way I did it.

Got the same problem as emduff.

for some kind of reason it asks for my sudo password, but after typing it carefully it still says it's wrong.

Thank you your feedback. I fixed these problems.

  • The pkgrel should always start with 1.
  • Missing dependency on gtk2.
  • unzip is not needed, use bsdtar (part of libarchive, required by pacman) instead. If unzip were needed, it would be in makedepends(), not depends().
  • The downloaded source filename must be unique because the SRCDEST directory can be the same for all packages.
  • Wrong permissions are set on the non-executable files.
  • The desktop file is broken as it looks for the binary in /usr/share/bin/.
