Hi,

A contributor running Archlinux did look into the package and
reported how to compile on this distribution. Here it is, for
the record:

 ./autogen.sh || return 1
 ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --enable-httpserv-plugin --enable-image-websearch-plugin || return 1
 sed -i s/-Wl,--as-needed// config.status || return 1
 make || return 1
 make DESTDIR=$pkgdir install || return 1
 mkdir -p $pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/seeks && cp COPYING $pkgdir/usr/share/licenses/seeks || return 1
 cd $pkgdir/usr/share/seeks/plugins && ln -s websearch img_websearch || return 1

Note that the compilation above requires that you compile OpenCV on your machine.
Let us know if this works for you.

Em.
