[arch-general] AUR package version
Hi, how do I know which AUR package to use if there are multiples? check last updated date? For example, there is amarok-svn and amarok2-svn, but amarok2-svn was last updated in beginning of Jun, amarok-svn yesterday. Manne

Are you sure they aren't for amarok and amarok2 respectively? update date doesn't matter for svn/cvs/git packages, they usually check out the last revision at the time you build the package. Philipp

The svn/cvs/git was a general remark, in the case of amarok there seems to be only one svn package for amarok1 and amarok2 respectively, which is ok IMHO.

Well, there is: amarok-svn amarok1 1.4.10-3 amarok2-svn I will use amarok2-svn. Manne
Each of these packages are for a different purpose. Obviously amarok-svn is to download the latest amarok from subversion, amarok2-svn is so people get the latest build of amarok2 from subversion and amarok1 would be for those people who want the 1.4.10 build of amarok because they are reluctant to upgrade to 2 (such as myself). The update dates only reflect when the owner of the package made a change to the package details, it does not reflect the application itself (especially if it is coming from svn). If you want the latest application and you're using the svn packages, new code is usually submitted every night, so run your update every night for that package.

Sorry, I am still confused. What is the difference between amarok-svn amarok2-svn. I thought the latest amarok is verson 2? Manne
as the version numbers show, amarok-svn is for amarok1 while amarok2-svn is... well, you know. On Fri, Jul 3, 2009 at 9:28 AM, Manne Merak<mannemerak@gmail.com> wrote:

That's not right. Actually, both packages build a svn version of amarok2.

Hello, I guess amarok 1 and amarok 2 are different programs. So it makes sense to have seperate developement on both branches, and so two svn branches. If thi is an upstream decision, we can reflect it in AUR by haveing two PGKBUILDs. Regards Stefan
The amarok-svn and amarok2-svn are packaging the same. And even if one of them would package svn version of amarok 1 it would not be necessary because the Amarok 1.x development was discontinued and thus amarok1 package is the only necessary for Amarok 1.4. 2009/7/3 Stefan Husmann <stefan-husmann@t-online.de>:
