PSA: I've started hosting this as a prebuilt package in my repository for those that want to install it using pacman without messing around with building from the AUR.

Please update the URL for this package from http to https.

There is no package named "gitk", the program gitk belongs to the package "git".

@ayekat You're right that is kind of silly and useless. That code was leftover from a previous maintainer. I've just cleaned it up a bit.

Printing messages like "Building...", "Testing..." and "Installing..." seems a bit redundant, given that makepkg already prints the names of the executed functions (build(), check(), package(), ...).

--update-- thanks!

@ataraxy I've updated this package using the actual tagged releases, that hack to use the git head version should be obsolete. If there is a need for a git head version of this I'd be happy to maintain a package for that, but this one will track the released version.

@meantonyaharding This package should be back in business, thanks for the notification.

The mr dev took myrepos off git because they changed their TOS. The new repo location is: https://git.joeyh.name/git/myrepos.git/

I don't know if one or the other is best (or better) practice for `PKGBUILD` files but I tested both of the following modifications and they worked:

- Changing `make` in the `build()` function to `PATH="$PATH:/usr/bin/core_perl" make`.
- Adding `export PATH="$PATH:/usr/bin/core_perl"` after the initial definitions and before the function definitions.

Building fails for me because pod2man was not in the path. Adding /usr/bin/core_perl did it.
