Re: [PD] compiling pd-extended on arch linux

Salut,

I've just installed archlinux through Manjaro and tried pdx aur package.

Which one ? pdx gives nothing :).

pacman -U pd-extended.tar.gz command line outputs errors like this:

error: missing package metadata in pd-extended.tar.gz

did you build pd-extended with makepkg ?

Fast track:

• add archlinuxfr in your pacman.conf :

[archlinuxfr] SigLevel = PackageOptional Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/$arch

• then install yaourt :

pacman -S yaourt

• then get pd-extended source from AUR, build and install :

yaourt -S pd-extended

Note: if you want, you can separatare the download and build parts.

yaourt -G pd-extended cd pd-extended makepkg pacman -U pd-extended-version.tar.xz

What can I do to solve this?

I think you're trying to install the source, not the built package. rtfm :)

Enjoy archlinux !
