FreeRIDE Ruby IDE

Question

This is actually three packages: FXScintilla, FXRuby, then FreeRIDE. You must have Ruby and FOX installed first.
pkgname=fxscintilla
pkgver=1.62
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="scintilla support for FOX Toolkit"
url="http://www.nongnu.org/fxscintilla/"
license="LGPL"
depends=('ruby' 'fox')
makedepends=()

source=(http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/fxscintilla/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=('c4cb1b9d954b92e1e1fdcb75597662c6')
build() {
cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
./configure --prefix=/usr
make || return 1
make DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg install
pkgname=fxruby
pkgver=1.2.2
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="FOX bindings for Ruby"
url="http://www.fxruby.org/"
license="LGPL"
depends=('ruby' 'fox')
makedepends=('ruby' 'fox' 'fxscintilla')
conflicts=()

source=(http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/1612/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=('1c899d20b8072396dce69c215bcc9c4e')
build() {
cd $startdir/src/FXRuby-$pkgver
ruby install.rb config -- --with-fxscintilla-include=/usr/include/fxscintilla --with-fxscintilla-lib=/usr/lib
ruby install.rb setup
ruby install.rb install --prefix=$startdir/pkg
Those are pretty straight forward. FreeRIDE was different because there's no compile or install step, there's no shell script to execute, and there's no desktop shortcut for full WM environments like Gnome or KDE.
I wrote a short little shell script to be the executable:
#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/share/freeride
ruby freeride.rb
Then I wrote a desktop shortcut:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Version=1.0
Type=Application
Exec=freeride
Icon=freeride.xpm
X-GNOME-DocPath=
Terminal=false
Name=FreerIDE
GenericName=freeride
Comment=IDE for Ruby
Categories=Application;Development;
Then I opened the BULLSEYE.ico icon file in GIMP 2.2 and exported it as freeride.xpm.
Now here's the PKGBUILD:
pkgname=freeride
pkgver=0.9.2
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="First-class cross-platform IDE for Ruby"
url="http://freeride.rubyforge.org/"
license="Ruby"
depends=('fxruby')
makedepends=('fxruby')
conflicts=()
replaces=()
backup=()
install=
source=(http://rubyforge.org/frs/download.php/2185/$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz)
md5sums=('04a9802f712074085349eac6d0d1483d')
build() {
#cd $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver
install -d -m755 $startdir/pkg/usr/bin
install -d -m755 $startdir/pkg/usr/share/pixmaps
install -d -m755 $startdir/pkg/usr/share/applications
cp -R $startdir/src/$pkgname-$pkgver $startdir/pkg/usr/share/$pkgname
install -m755 $startdir/freeride $startdir/pkg/usr/bin
install -m644 $startdir/freeride.xpm $startdir/pkg/usr/share/pixmaps
install -m755 $startdir/freeride.desktop $startdir/pkg/usr/share/applications
Enjoy!

just add the dependencies to the AUR
btw, this script
#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/share/freeride
ruby freeride.rb
should be created in the pkgbuild like this
mkdir -p $startdir/pkg/usr/bin
echo "#!/bin/bash" > $startdir/pkg/usr/bin/freeride
echo "cd /usr/share/freeride" >> $startdir/pkg/usr/bin/freeride
..... etc ...
chgrp users $startdir/pkg/usr/bin/freeride
chmod 775 $startdir/pkg/usr/bin/freeride
