Your package fails to build for me on x86_64. ==> Unpacking data.tar.xz (Debian package files) tar: data.tar.xz: Cannot open: No such file or directory Seems like either deb is not found or makepkg fails to unpack it. Not sure which.

Yes, my mistake. Rewrote part of the PKGBUILD and got confused between values used by $CARCH and architecture names used upstream. Thanks, fixed.

I believe there's a small type in the PKGBUILD: ;; - "amd64") + "x86_64") _arch="amd64" sha256sums=('75f3379b8bf3998f9875270a12219263ee25ab3e97a511f37137c199b1f8c40a') ;; At least, I had to change it so it worked for me! Thanks! Scott

Hi all, package has been updated to 0.12.2

Thanks @psytoolkit, I'd like to list the advantages in the description field, but there's such a massive list of advantages. Some other key advantages: * <h1> through <h6> tags are transformed into a hierarchy of PDF headings so you can expand/collapse sections/chapters in your reader and use the headings as anchors. * IIRC, links don't work in the dynamically-linked version in the official repos.

It is important to point out the advantage of this static version over the standard version on pacman (wkhtmltopdf). This version works really headless (e.g., as part of a crontab), whereas the normal version seems to need a running X server (or Xvfb).

Ta, that's just as I thought.
