Details

Boinc's built-in screensaver utility (boincscr) does not appear to be built into the boinc package available on the community repo. If I try to run the boincscr command on a system with community/boinc installed it just outputs "command not found". I previously raised it here https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=242217 (sorry I'm a bit late of the bug report).

In the forum thread one of the replies mentions the libxcb and xcb-util packages as make dependencies for the boincscr utility. Without them boincscr isn't built but it doesn't fail.

After building the pkgbuild on my own system using "pkgbase=boinc makepkg -sri" I was able to use the boincscr command which suggests that there is a build issue.

I did capture the build log and it does have two checks for XCB and XCBATOM. I've attached it to this task.
