yaourt gtox-gitCheck "How to build" and make install
No idea. Somehow get dependencies installed. Good luck.
First read https://github.com/irungentoo/toxcore/blob/master/INSTALL.md.
This project will need toxcore.
git clone https://github.com/KoKuToru/gTox.git
cd gTox
git submodule init
git submodule update
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../Source
makegtkmm3, libnotifymm, librsvg, sqlite, gettext, libcanberra, gstreamermm
