Those are in 'base-devel' and are implied to be available to all arch packages.

Missing build dependencies autoconf and automake.

Missing dosbox-file-utils as makedep (otherwise fails with desktop-file-install not found)

@Vaporeon: That worked, thank you! Appreciate your work.

Just run makepkg again, vcs packages on the AUR always pull the latest source.

Can this package be updated to the latest SVN? Commit 4177 (https://sourceforge.net/p/dosbox/code-0/4177/tree/) fixes a mouse locking problem that many people are getting with DosBox and X.org 1.20.1+. Thanks!
