I have the same problem as hippieben. I modified the PKGBUILD to build from the release tarball, using the provided configure script instead of generating one with autogen:

https://0x0.st/8NAd.txt

It builds and runs in a clean chroot for me. There's a missing icon assertion when running the binary but otherwise appears to function as normal.

EDIT: I bumped the version of gettext to 0.23 in configure.ac and the build succeeded. Run this before running autogen.sh in the PKGBUILD:

sed -i 's/AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION(\[0.21\])/AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION([0.23])/' configure.ac

Still getting those wxWidgets assertion errors though.

Does not build. The solution posted by rgambord did not help.

fix for @d2a2's issue,

edit the PKGBUILD to re-gettextize the package,

build() {
    cd "$srcdir/$pkgname"
    expect -c 'spawn gettextize --force; send "\r"; expect eof'
    autoreconf -ivf
    ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr
    make
}

Note, the gettextize script explicitly polls for user input via /dev/tty. I used `expect' to handle that non-interactively.

Building both this package and spek-git in a chroot fails with the same error:

I checked out the install guide on the upstream repo and building from the git repo fails too, but not building from the tarball. The last commit was two years ago so maybe it's a problem with upstream?

Any package that's a part of base-devel should be omitted from make dependencies since it's assumed you have it installed when building anything from AUR. (Or pacman packages in general.)

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#makedepends

Everyone getting errors regarding autoconf/automake: these are very fundamental packages for building *nix software. They are also part of base-devel, a package you should probably have around if you are using the AUR.

In other words: this package is not out of date. At best, it needs to have more dependencies in the makedepends array.

To resolve the error it is necessary to install autoconf. $ sudo pacman -Syu autoconf
