The OP already pointed out that yaourt is installed, this is the reason
why I gave hints how to use yaourt and that I mentioned that yaourt is
neither an official supported, nor a recommended tool.

I'm not against yaourt, I'm a yaourt user myself, but it is essential
to understand a few things.

It doesn't harm to read comments and to take a look at the PKGBUILD when
using yaourt. When not using yaourt there anyway is no need to install
dependencies manually, see

  man makepkg

and
