Wrong paths on Arch Linux / AUR

[plntyk]

Installing on Arch Linux via AUR (kmscon-patched-git, libtsm-patched-git) now does not work anymore
after latest change #9

running kmscon does not work because /usr/bin/kmscon contains the wrong path

AUR package creates a

/usr/lib/kmscon/kmscon/kmscon

Editing AUR configure options and/or kmscon shellscript that calls the binary manually fixed the situation so that for example systemctl start kmscon works again

Can confirm, and it's not just from those PKGBUILDs:

This was caused by 188a960 -- the commit before it (3f8b688) works just fine. It looks to me like the patch was pushed in without including a modified scripts/kmscon.

@Aetf it should be a simple fix, if your local version works. I can't imagine this is working for anyone but you, right now.

[Aetf]

Sorry for the careless fix :P

I've updated both the PKGBUILD and scripts/kmscon to be consistent with the path change.

Could both of you @plntyk @PegasusEpsilon test before I close this?

[LChris314]

Not those two users but I've just updated and it worked fine. File list shown by pacman -Ql shows correct path.

[plntyk]

Uninstalled and reinstalled kmscon-patched-git via AUR and it works.

[Aetf]

Okay. I'm closing this then. Fixed in d2c0134

[PegasusEpsilon]

Sorry for the delay, can confirm that this has been fixed. Thanks, @Aetf!

[Aetf]

@PegasusEpsilon Cool!
