Re: [arch-multilib] common variables in PKGBUILD

Thomas,

The AUR was never able to handle more complex PKGBUILDs, everything it parses (pkgname, pkgver, pkgrel, source, and so on) must be a string with no variable substitutions in it.

The PKGBUILDs we use for binary packages are very often not AUR-compatible.

But how should someone uploading to AUR handle this? Does the wiki still reflect the opinion of the developers? Harvey -- Linux is like a wigwam: No Gates, no Windows and an Apache inside
