Arch Linux User Repository

I just changed the PKGBUILD, hope that's good! It works for me on Antergos

@bulantoni Please update the PKGBUILD, if you don't have time, please disown it or remove it. OTHERWISE, you just give user a totally wrong installation. (which copy whole system /usr/bin files)

Modify the PKGBUILD file as following, work for me. ===================== pkgname=pick-colour-picker pkgver=1.5 pkgrel=0 pkgdesc="Pick. A colour picker that remembers where you picked colours from" arch=('any') url="http://kryogenix.org/code/pick/" license=('custom') depends=('python2-pip') source=("${pkgname}_${pkgver}-0-201702011054-ubuntu17.10.1_all.deb::https://code.launchpad.net/~sil/+archive/ubuntu/pick/+files/${pkgname}_${pkgver}-0~201702011054~ubuntu17.10.1_all.deb") md5sums=('6debb5d29903792366725131b6d082c7') prepare() { bsdtar -xJf data.tar.xz } package() { cp --preserve=mode -r usr "${pkgdir}" find "${pkgdir}" -type f -name 'pick-colour-picker' -exec sed -i "s/python/python2/g" {} \; find "${pkgdir}" -depth -type d -name "dist-packages" -execdir mv {} "site-packages" \; find "${pkgdir}" -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; install -dm755 "${pkgdir}"/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname mv "${pkgdir}"/usr/share/licenses/$pkgname . }

This PKGBUILD is invalid for the following reasons: - The `cp` statement copies every binary on your system (contents of /usr/bin) and adds it to the package - The `mv` statement only has one argument, thus the installation fails. Also, it should be ${pkgdir} instead of {$pkgdir} - .SRCINFO needs to be updated
