@bigdaddy. Live patch for ccm in Manjaro is available at https://github.com/graysky2/clean-chroot-manager/issues/41

Wrong comment :)

I just tried installing on latest Manjaro and got this:
===== BUILD FAILED ======

The build failed with exit code 2. This may have been because you

- added an #include to a source/header
- added a Q_OBJECT macro to a class
- added a new resource to a qrc file

as dependencies are not automatically re-computed for local developer builds.
You may try computing dependencies manually by running 'make qmake' in:

/tmp/yaourt-tmp-yaron/aur-qtwebkit/src/qtwebkit-2.3.4/WebKitBuild/Release

or passing --makeargs="qmake" to build-webkit.

=========================

8BitSloth: Sadly there really isn't much one can do to the PKGBUILD to remedy the build issues encountered by some users. In my tests it was interactions with libxslt that lead to the build failing. While it takes some time users can successfully build this in a clean chroot. The devtools package provides scripts to automate this process. aurutils is also capable of aiding with builds of things from the AUR in a clean chroot.

This package is still unusable. WoefulDerelict, you should really request this package be orphaned then take control of it. You've done more in the last 6 months than the maintainer.

bigdaddy: You're problem is Manjaro. Like many Manjaro packages their devtools deployment is not the same as the package distributed for Arch Linux proper. You can inspect the Arch Linux package and list the included files via the web interface and see that the distributed files do not match the devtools package for Manjaro: [https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/devtools/]

I suspect the proper script when using Manjaro is 'stable-x86_64-build' given the options available; however, it may be prudent to visit the equivalent wiki entry for Manjaro's devtools package to familiarise yourself with their quirks.

Thank you really much!

Unfortunately, even though I have installed devtools, the script is not available. An excerpt from pacman -Qt devtools gives me the following:

Maybe it is worth noting that I do not run Arch but Manjaro, but usually any fixes related to Arch worked for me as well.

There are a handful of useful scripts packaged together that simplify building packages in a clean chroot. These are maintained by the distribution as a convenience for developers and end users alike. These tools are documented in the DeveloperWiki here: [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_Clean_Chroot]

A summary of the necessary steps to manually build this package in a clean chroot using 'extra-x86_64-build' from the devtools package follows.

Prerequisites: Install the devtools package from [Extra] as the script used is provided by this package.

1. Clone the qtwebkit repository or extract the snapshot archive into a clean working directory.

2. Enter the directory containing the package source. (PKGBUILD and patches.)

3. Execute the following command: extra-x86_64-build

4. Call pacman with the -U flag to install the resulting package. [https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/pacman#Additional_commands]
