I could only make 2.5.1-1 build by changing in src/code/cde/programs/dtterm/Makefile:

tic dtterm.ti

to

sudo tic dtterm.ti

Then I rebuilt it with:

makepkg -RL

I asssume that the person doing the build checks is running make with sudo, so the permission error won't show up for them.

yay is complaining that dtterm isn't installed along with other dt programs. my understanding was installing ksh from the aur should install these?

It seems like this package requires the separate installation of the "libxpm" and "libxaw" packages in order to correctly build. Are there currently any plans to add these packages to the build dependencies?

Here's a patch to update the package to 2.5.1:

Answering myself on:

cp: cannot stat '/usr/dt/share/cde/fontaliases/mixed.alias': No such file or directory

This seems to be now fixed in cde v2.5.1

Needs xorg-mkfontscale and xorg-bdftopcf adding to build dependencies.

I got the same error @simona was mentioning:

On build, I get this error:

configure: error: Please install the following REQUIRED programs: mkfontdir bdftopcf

Which would be because I don't have xorg-font-utils installed. This should be flagged as a build dependency.

@simona please use $ LANG=C makepkg to have message error in english
