Re: [aur-general] Questions from a new TU

3) Is there any way to avoid re-uploading a package when changing the PKGBUILD if the changes have no effect on the built package (e.g. appending packages to the depends array)?

Adding more depends does alter the package... But you can always alter the package in cvs and just do "cvs commit" for things that _really_ do not alter the package.

Thanks for the reply. Will a cvs commit without a binary upload (e.g. when adding a package to the depends array) result in a new binary package in the repo with the correct information? Formulated another way, does the upload server create a new .PKGINFO file and replace the old one while keeping the installable package files?
