Hi, I have been attempting to install XFCe via your instructions for several days now. The IRC channel is no help, and the XFCE channel is basically a ghost town. I have followed your directions and found out I needed to update my version of pkgtool/pkgbuild to handle the META tag in all the .spec files. But for some reason whenever i try to run:
|pkgtool --download build -v *.spec | I get: || INFO: Copying %use'd or %include'd spec files to SPECS directory INFO: Processing spec files INFO: Processing spec file OSOLgamin.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLgtk-xfce-engine.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLlibexo.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLlibnotify.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLlibxfce4mcs.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLlibxfce4menu.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLlibxfce4util.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLlibxfcegui4.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLmousepad.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLperl-uri.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLterminal.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLthunar.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfcalendar.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce-loginmgr.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce-mcs-manager.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce-mcs-plugins.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce-utils.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce4-appfinder.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce4-dev-tools.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce4-icon-theme.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce4-mixer.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce4-panel.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce4-session.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfce4-settings.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfconf.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfdesktop.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfprint.spec INFO: Processing spec file OSOLxfwm4.spec INFO: Processing spec file SUNWpcre.spec INFO: Downloading sources for OSOLgamin INFO: Downloading sources for OSOLgtk-xfce-engine INFO: Downloading source http://www.us.xfce.org/archive/xfce-4.6.1/src/gtk-xfce-engine-2.4.2.tar.bz2 INFO: Hint: if you are behind a firewall, you need to set the http_proxy INFO: environment variable.

I am going insane because every single method that i have tried to get this installed has failed miserably with a different error. thanks.
