Regards, Robert [1] https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/op/openttd-ttdwin/openttd-ttdwin.tar.gz Ah, sorry, i'm new to these things. In that case is there any point in having the package at all if it just contains the PKGBUILD file? Installation instructions are clearly documented on OpenTTDs wiki.. http://wiki.openttd.org/Installation#Choosing_TTD_for_base_graphics (I know they are put in different folders, but they do the same thing...) Well, all PKGBUILDs are only a kind of installation instructions, readable for machines. Normally, there are URLs to the sources in the PKGBUILD and they get automatically downloaded when you run makepkg. The problem here is that the files aren't (legally) available in the internet, so makepkg can't get these files. It is not really a fancy solution, but there is no alternative and there is a note in the PKGBUILD that you need to get the files from TTD before creating the package, so normally there should be no problem, because (in my opinion) everybody should take a look at the PKGBUILD before installing a package.
