I had similar discussion before. Putting the whole build script in one file is a very simple and convenient design. If we want to ensure safety and don't want to duplicate meta data, splitting PKGBUILD file is required. On Mon, May 25, 2015 at 8:56 PM, Kyle <kyle@gmx.ca> wrote:
I can see that .SRCINFO is completely different from the fields in PKGBUILD after all. It isn't just the spaces left and right of the = sign as I first thought. Apparently it doesn't show arrays in the same way either, instead putting the same key on multiple lines with one value per key. So this isn't exactly as trivial as I thought, although I still think there would have to be a way to keep from having to duplicate metadata, but as long as there is something that can take the info from the PKGBUILD and generate the file, it isn't really a big problem.
