Arch Linux

There is a makedep for parted missing.

Correct me if I'm misreading this (english is not my native language), but I "may choose to do so" if I want to update the package "just to accommodate a revision bump" according to the guidelines. It's good for users of automated tools (eg yaourt). I wish all VCS package maintainers could do the same.

You should not so often to update the version number. When you build it makepkg automatically checks new revisions in svn. See http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VCS_PKGBUILD_Guidelines

I don't particularly like the notion of .desktop launchers for this kind of administrative tools. But if that's what it takes... At least I fixed the broken build. PKBUILD updated to 572-2. Added desktop entry and icons.

I would like to include icons in the build process. Perhaps it is not justified and there is another way.
In any case, I proposed the idea to improve PKGBUILD. You should decide implement it or not.

In README writen:
43 The icons need to be placed into appropriate directories and renamed

45 For example:
46
47 /usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/apps/kvpm.png
48 /usr/share/icons/oxygen/16x16/apps/kvpm.png
49 /usr/share/icons/oxygen/64x64/apps/kvpm.png
But useing the hicolor is more correctly.

Final PKGBUILD, which I've made for yourself: http://pastebin.com/TjpEXCV0

@unikum: Hi, what's the point of copying the whole source tree over just to build it? I don't care too much as I use ccache, but if I wouldn't, it would rebuild the whole thing on every makepkg -ef.

I made some changes in PKGBUILD: http://pastebin.com/Q3VFU1AW
Patch for PKGBUILD: http://pastebin.com/rRm61a9W

I hope it will be usefull.

@unikum: Thanks for the suggestion.

You should add subversion to makedepends.
