Hi Michael,

When I built pakfire I just installed the programs that were flagged up 
as missing during the configure section.

I have now gone through the filenames you listed from debian and 
eventually found what the equivalent packages that contain those are 
called in Arch Linux (most were easy but a few were convoluted to find).

Everything was already installed on my laptop except for liblzma-dev 
which is lzlib in Arch Linux.

Just to check, I installed lzlib and re-did the make check and the same 
problems occurred.

Regards,

Adolf.
