You should already have that installed, as it's a member of base-devel: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR#Prerequisites

Hi, Today I tried to build the package and got the following error: ./configure: line 4319: syntax error near unexpected token `0.24' ./configure: line 4319: `PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG(0.24)' I googled it [1], and it seems that `pkg-config' package is required for the build. So, you should probably add it to makedepends. [1] http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16147491/configure-make-install-failed

For those who are unable to upgrade openxcom because of the error "yaml-cpp and yaml-cpp0.3 are in conflict" you can uninstall yaml-cpp0.3 using: pacman -Rdd yaml-cpp0.3 And then the upgrade should run without a problem. The -Rdd allows for removing a package even though it is a dependency of another package (which is this case is the old version of openxcom). As Dalrik stated below, it is also possible to manually uninstall and then reinstall openxcom. I didn't want to do this because I made a bunch of changes to the openxcom files that I didn't want risk messing up. So I found the -Rdd way, and thought I would share because it seems like a cleaner solution.

That was a superfast update! :D A couple of points: * You can drop the timidity++ dependency as it's no longer needed by default. (though I believe people can still use it if they want to) * The manpage generation is a lot better nowadays too, so you may want to consider re-enabling it (just remove the --without-man and add xmlto, docbook-xml, and docbook-xsl to the makedepends). Good luck with your alien hunting!

Due to Openxcom switching to a new version of yaml-cpp, you will need to manually uninstall openxcom before upgrading to v1.0.

Please add timidity++ to the dependencies

Thanks for the feedback SNCPlay42. I've updated the package to include the .desktop and its associated files.

Two small nitpicks: - The install script says to copy the XCOM files to /usr/share/openxcom, but the correct destination is /usr/share/openxcom/data. - The package still doesn't include a .desktop file - there is one with the necessary icons in the source repository's res/linux.

This is an AUR package, which means it is supported by the community, not pacman or the Arch developers. To install AUR packages, you either need to build manually (look up 'AUR' on the wiki), or use an AUR helper such as yaourt to build/install it automatically.
