You'll have to read the PKGBUILD (remember that we checkout that specific commit), but if you only have a snapshot it's quite hard. I think this is a pretty nice solution: http://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/cairo-compmgr/trunk/PKGBUILD?id=3e3c7a8dad3d8acc5111eb306bef65f484cb1161 -- Florian Pritz -- {flo,bluewind}@server-speed.net
