Strange. I just tried to reproduce this error but to no avail. It was failing for me in January and I added a patch back then. But when I was updating the package in March it built just fine (and still does) so I assumed the problem was solved and removed it. The patch seems superfluous (the missing option is already declared elsewhere as I pointed out in their bugtracker: https://github.com/brianb/mdbtools/issues/37#issuecomment-31742729) and I guess it's not really a bug in mdbtools but something in autotools or gnome-doc-utils or elsewhere in the system that's broken on some systems (is your system up to date?). But anyway, since I can't trace it (any hints?) I have restored the patch. I'll keep it in until they either merge it or find a better workaround. I have also changed the way pkgver is constructed to include 'r' before revision number as the wiki currently suggests. Pacman thinks it's an older version and treats it as a downgrade. I suspect that this may cause some wrappers (like yaourt) not to report that the new version is availab.e

I get the same error as @natrio See here for fix: https://github.com/brianb/mdbtools/issues/37#issuecomment-29264591 You need to put the patch into the pkgbuild before it runs autoconf (just patching the file will be overwritten).

mdbtools-git 0.7.147.g95cf90d-1 > configure: error: conditional "ENABLE_SK" was never defined. > Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally. The options --disable-gmdb2 --disable-scrollkeeper ended with same error.

pkg-config is in base-devel group, which, according to the wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/makepkg#Usage) is assumed to be installed on your system if you're using makepkg. Even official packages do not list stuff from base and base-devel as explicit dependencies. But thanks for letting us know. It might help others missing this package for whatever reason.

I needed to install pkg-config to get it to work, as I had compilation due to the lack of the necessary macros like https://github.com/brianb/mdbtools/issues/48 and as explained in http://www.coffeecode.net/archives/208-PKG_CHECK_MODULES-syntax-error-near-unexpected-token-DEPS,.html

.desktop file added. If anyone needs anything else, let me know in comments. This package is missing some stuff with respect to non-git one - like unixodbc support - because I didn't need it myself.
