Error still exists about comskip-gui

install: cannot stat '/tmp/yaourt-tmp-roberts/aur-comskip/src/comskip/comskip-gui': No such file or directory

Package will install by deleting the following line.

install -m755 "${srcdir}/${_gitname}/comskip-gui" "$pkgdir/usr/bin/comskip-gui"

Not sure if the gui is needed, but I installed on a headless unit. I'll follow up with results.

I've fixed the version number to be inline with the source tree and added the comskip-gui binary to the package.

It would be good if the comskip-gui would be installed as well, or give the option to enable it.

My PKGBUILD with comskip-gui added, there might be a better way of providing comskip-gui optionally though.

This needs git in makedepends since the source has a git url.

The build dependencies are ffmpeg and argtable. There is no longer a requirement for ffmpeg2.8 (since Sept 2016).

To test this, I've removed ffmpeg2.8 from my system and built the package:

nickb@nickb-laptop:/usr/lib/kodi$ sudo pacman -R ffmpeg2.8 vlc sopcast-player
checking dependencies...
:: acestream-launcher optionally requires vlc

this does not currently build, get the following:-

Dependencies for `comskip' are not met, not building...

This is after having installed ffmpeg2.8 and argtable, annoyingly it doesn't tell you what dependency, anybody got a fix for this?.

Comskip does not yet build with ffmpeg 3.0.

I was able to create the package by changing the configure line to:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/ffmpeg2.8/pkgconfig ./configure --prefix=/usr

Also, to ensure that the proper ffmpeg version is installed, the dependency should be changed from ffmpeg to ffmpeg2.8
