Thats another story... I agree that the PKGBUILD is huge. There is probably a reason for that. It is true it is not the easiest one to read. Maybe another bug report?
Here i must give a -1 because first the only one who need to understand what happens is the kernel maintainer and second i must say instead i'm not a dev the PKGBUILD of the kernel26 package is from my view understandable enough. I think there is even room to write some things in another way because you can use this pkgname=kernel26-eee _kernelname=${pkgname:8} or this _modname=eee pkgname=kernel26-${_modname} which is what i use in my own kernel package (in the lines later is use ${_modname} nearly in the same way as you). But before you missunderstood me i'm more joking than starting a serious discussion about that there be such different ways to do nearly the same.-) See you, Attila
