@x11tete11x: yep, the patch had a redundant #include statement that referenced a package not in depends. Fixed, please try again.

@SammysHP, @parkerlreed, anyone: thanks for PKGBUILD and VFS495 patches and sorry for the latencies. Fixes applied, package updated.

Please replace "gdk-pixbuf2" dependency with "pixman" as written in the changelog: > 2015-02-03: v0.6.0 release > > […] > > * Library: > - Always use Pixman for image manipulation, gdk-pixbuf and ImageMagick > are not supported any more. Also the build() function is broken. autogen.sh does not replace configure. All options passed to autogen are useless. Here is a working PKGBUILD: https://gist.github.com/SammysHP/fad9909b4c7895b986ca40eacd522a17

@skyeplus Thanks for the update. Sadly I don't have the laptop with that reader in it anymore but hope that helps some other people out there.

Hi, I adapted patch for latest lib version. libfprint interacts with vcsFPService through dynamic library via dlopen, so I guess it should gracefully fail if driver is not present. http://ix.io/1eh0

@dreamingincode: sorry, totally missed your comment. Package is updated now.

Please update pkgver in PKGBUILD, yaourt is notifying me of new update of this package every time, because 1:0.5.1.r13.g35e356f-1 is taken to be greater than 1:V.0.6.0.r32.g487dae0-1 (notice the "V"). Also per Arch Wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VCS_package_guidelines#The_pkgver.28.29_function): "maintainers should favor a pkgver that makes sense. To use pkgver(), you still need to declare the pkgver variable with the most recent value."

openssl098 currently has a pgp issue bypassed by --skipinteg I got a package created for the userspace driver. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vfs495-daemon/ Not sure how easily that patch could be updated. If you are able to port that to newer libfprint, I would be happy to help test it.

@parkerlreed: As I have said, this patch utilizes a proprietary user-space daemon driver which is not packaged for Arch. If somebody packages it, then I will add the patch (provided that libfprint won't crash if the proprietary daemon is not available) and add the daemon to optdepends.
