Bump to version 3.11.0 and add the new GPG key from Ralph Hoffmann (See http://www.boomerangsworld.de/cms/about.html for details). If you have issues with the verification process, double check if you have imported and signed the gpg key.

Looks like it doesn't want to build right now with the following errors:

~I haven't had time to look into it yet. Sorry.~

EDIT: the configure script seems to correctly detect Imlib2 support : no but the sources seem to be missing some macros.
It builds fine with imlib2 installed and enabled. @aaron: You could add imlib2 to the (optional) dependencies in the PKGBUILD.

If you want to get this working, here is a diff for PKGBUILD:

I don't think the .asc file was needed. The checksum and pgp key should be enough.

Hope this helps someone.

I tried adding the GPG key using the commands in the pinned comment but I still got an error, not sure what to do.

That's very generous of you, thank you.

aaronfischer commented on 2021-02-24 20:15 (UTC)

Thanks @frankspace! I've removed the workaround and add you to the list of contributors.

frankspace commented on 2021-02-24 04:41 (UTC)

The workaround added in 2014 to deal with a pthread bug does not appear to be necessary anymore. Compilation works just fine for me stripping all that out and just going with ./configure --enable-xft --prefix=/usr.
