Work in progress.. Need to investigate, why libprotothread isn't found by the build process of the latest version

Even though the pkg built, it doesn't seem to work.. :( First, it said it could not find any modules.. vwm's INSTALL file says "/usr/lib/vwm/modules" is "hard-coded" and needs to be created. So, I changed the PKBUILD: # In the package_vwm-modules-sysmon() section: # "$pkgdir/usr/lib/$pkgname/modules/sysmon.so" "$pkgdir/usr/lib/${pkgname%%-*}/modules/sysmon.so" # In the package_vwm-modules-vwmterm3() section: # "$pkgdir/usr/lib/$pkgname/modules/vwmterm3.so" "$pkgdir/usr/lib/${pkgname%%-*}/modules/vwmterm3.so" # So, it changed $pkgname TO ${pkgname%%-*} in both sections to try to put them into "/usr/lib/vwm/modules" instead of "/usr/lib/vwm-modules-sysmon/modules" and "/usr/lib/vwm-modules-vwmterm3/modules" That fixed the problem for it not finding modules..... But... ..after running the program, there's still no way to do anything.. no terminal, etc.. And, the screen gets weird after trying to select the menu and exits with a lot of repeated text, which ends with "Aborted (core dumped)". Does anyone have any ideas? :(

Hi~ At first I got this error: make[1]: Entering directory '/builds/vwm/src/vwm/modules/vwmterm3' rm -f *.o rm -f *.so gcc -Wall -std=gnu99 -O2 -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE `pkg-config --cflags glib-2.0 gmodule-2.0` -I/usr/include -I../.. -c -fpic *.c events.c:5:19: fatal error: vterm.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. init.c:24:19: fatal error: vterm.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. psthread.c:31:19: fatal error: vterm.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. Makefile:22: recipe for target 'vwmterm3' failed make[1]: *** [vwmterm3] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/builds/vwm/src/vwm/modules/vwmterm3' Makefile:30: recipe for target 'vwmterm' failed make: *** [vwmterm] Error 2 ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting... Before that, I already built and installed the other dependencies: libpseudo, libviper, and libvterm-vwm Later, I found out it was because libvterm-vwm's PKBUILD did not actually install any files. I modified it to install them, allowing this pkg to build. :) I left a comment in that pkg as well. Thank you for this package~:)

Please note that the libvterm dependency is now https://aur4.archlinux.org/packages/libvterm-vwm/ There will be a different libvterm at the old location, see https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2015-June/031037.html for the reason.

I posted a diff to fix the libvterm breakage. It was caused due to a change in makepkg that made the package not build properly.

I have no issues with `makepkg -sr' http://sprunge.us/ihed
