Arch Linux User Repository

I haven't looked at the major differences between this package and janet-lang-git, but the git version seems to place the header files correctly in my file system, while this package creates symlinks pointing to the build directory location.

Looks like "JANET_BUILD" is just a constant used to print in the repl, shouldn't make much difference since this specific error is ignored if happens

I think I'll let static for now, I'll look into making id dynamic with 1.0 release (looks like that will be soon)

Can be done with git + version tag I think

Installing this package, I had some errors because the makefile assumes that it will be run in a clone of the janet-lang repo; but the script runs it in just a copy of the tree. The patch below resolves these errors, but would be better if the short commit hash associated with the version tag could be computed instead of hard-coded.
