ArchLinux development

Hey All, Recently I've migrated my homeserver from Fedora to ArchLinux. Which gives me the headache of installing Cockpit (since i like it a lot :) ) on Archlinux. I've seen the AUR package, but it has an insane amount of dependencies and i don't understand some of them. (Compiling from source gives the same dependencies, so the're not wrong...) Is there some kind of dependency tree/graph for *all* components needed for compiling Cockpit from source (and maybe why they are needed) ? Some of the components that I didn't like that one way or another were needed as a dependency: - Cairo - PCP - Systemtap - libmesa - Qt4 - some LateX stuff All the help/info is welcome! - Thijs
