The script is not outdated so much as incomplete. It merrily assumed that the final component of the Archlinux release number was a counter, but I now suspect it's actually the day-of-month. Most months the ISO is cut on the first day of the month, but this month it was cut on the third. You may override the release number without modifying the script by exporting the following environment variable before building: export ARCHLINUX_REL_VERSION=2016.09.03 This is, of course, not at all clear to the casual user and a legitimate bug. Secondly, as you note, the autoreconf command is missing from the build chroot. autoreconf is a component of autoconf, and it is sufficient to add "autoconf" and "automake" or, more succinctly, "base-devel" to the "pkgs" variable in prepare-chroot-builder. I've not investigated what changed here, but presumably base-devel used to be present by default or as a dependency of something else, but ceased to be some time in the last 9 months (when I last built the Qubes Archlinux template). I've submitted a trivial pull request to integrate this: https://github.com/marmarek/qubes-builder-archlinux/pull/12 Alas, having cleared these obstacles, you'll hit another issue noted a couple of weeks ago in the thread to which Foppe pointed you. This one was precipitated by the Archlinux update to glibc 2.24 in early August. 2.24 deprecated readlink_r, which is used by (at least) Xen 4.6; meanwhile, Xen builds with deprecation warnings treated as compilation errors. The fix went into Xen 4.7 a few months back, but has not been backported to 4.6. The work-around reported by Jovan in the other thread involves pointing at the Xen 4.7 branch of a couple of marmarek's development repos with a custom builder.conf. I don't know enough about Xen to say whether this risks weird and wonderful interactions between the client libraries and the host Xen, but I think the balance of probability is that is should be okay to talk to an older host with a newer client of the same major version number.
