Hi,
I have created first version of proj-svn package for PROJ.4, a cartographic projections library hosted at http://proj.osgeo.org
I attached two files, PKGBUILD and ChangeLog. I'd like to ask for review and comments.
Do these files look OK? Can I pack these files into proj-svn.tar.gz and submit to AUR?
Not that way. You should do `makepkg --source` in the directory with your PKGBUILD file. And in terms of your PKGBUILD: * set description to “Cartographic Projections library, SVN version.” so it is like the upstream package. * arch=('i686' 'x86_64') * remove empty entries. * ${srcdir}, ${pkgdir} * you don't need the ChangeLog file, and you didn't show us any COPYING, but you install one.
Note, there are a few related or similar packages available:
* proj - stable version of PROJ.4 https://www.archlinux.org/packages/?name=proj
* proj-old - old version of PROJ.4 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=59040
* libproj4 - is a different library to PROJ.4 https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21666 Homepage: http://home.comcast.net/~gevenden56/proj/ Historically, it is related to PROJ.4, names are similar, but they are distinct projects.
So, proj-svn is not a duplicate of any existing package.
No need to tell that.
