@jpkotta,

This package fails to compile because of some "old-style" c issues that no longer work with the current version of gcc (14+). Providing a patch for the effected source files below (dclock.c, Dclock.c):

Paste the above into a file and push to the repo along with the following change to the PKGBUILD file:

Add prepare() with the following:

patch -p1 dclock.patch

This worked for me, hopefully it will help.

Doesn't build anymore.
