Hello,

 

I made a Pkgfile with this contents.

 

# Description : muffin the window manager of the Cinnamon Desktop

# Url : http://cinnamon.linuxmint.com/

# Maintainer : Roelof Wobben, rwobben at hotmail dot nl

# Depends on : intltool

 

name=muffin

version=1.1.12

release=1

source=(https://github.com/linuxmint/$name/archive/$version.tar.gz

 

build() {

  cd $name-version

  ./configure --prefix=/usr

  make

  make  DESTDIR=$pkg install

}

 

So I thought that the depencies are also build when I do pkgmk -d

But I still see a message that the build-script cannot find intltool.

 

How to solve this one.
