There have been a lot of changes going on to the repos and ABS needs updated to reflect these. As it see it the following need fixed: 1) arch=('any') support Fix commited to git 2) split package support Currently the PKGBUILD is only found in /var/abs/$repo/$pkgbase. This would make it difficult to find a split package directly. Should the db-scripts add symlinks from $pkgbase to ${pkgname[@]}? That would have a bonus effect of reserving at the split package names. 3) community support I can see this being achieved in two ways - svn2abs is run on sigurd then rsynced to gerolde - svn2abs is run directly on gerolde (requires complete svn checkout on gerolde) The second is easier but uses a bit more resources. 4) community-testing support. Comes directly as part of #3 but will need to be added to the abs.conf file So should we do anything for #2 (requires changes to db-scripts) and which is the best way to go for #3? Allan
