Details

Because of scrollkeeper's interesting use of .h header files, the resulting C program can try to access ${prefix}/var/log/scrollkeeper.log.

Attached is a patch to fix it.

Problem with the patch is that the old scrollkeeper kept files in /usr/var/lib/scrollkeeper and the new on keeps them in /var/lib/scrollkeeper. Pacman doesn't know these are the same files and says there are conflicts. This is bad.
