[arch-dev-public] drift between repo packages and ABS
Hi, I've noticed that there's a significant number of packages which show drift between the repo package and the PKGBUILD in ABS. This occurs because devs/TUs update the PKGBUILD in SVN and call archrelease (or one of its derivatives such as extrapkg) without releasing the package to the repos. I don't think we should be doing this. It's fine if you want to update trunk, but the repo directories should always match the live repo package. Here's the list with their respective mismatches. While most of them are simple metadata, there's definitely more severe cases where attributes like dependencies have drifted. I won't be tracking down individual people to fix these, but please do a pkgrel bump and fix these when you get a chance.

I was using CARCH hacks to make i686 and x86_64 having different makedepends, maybe this was the cause. Anyway, turns out the only one additional makedepend (yasm) was not needed anymore since some versions ago, so removed that line. Now it should work :) Regards, Felix Yan

As for liblightdm-qt{4,5} pkgdescs, I had mistakenly made them arrays in the split package functions, now fixed. Cheers, -- Maxime
