Hi all,
My Google-fu has turned up nothing on this this. Is there a preferred standard for naming packages of Apache mods? I see everything in [extra] is just "mod_name" but some AUR packages are "apache-mod_name"
Personally I prefer the "apache-mod_name" form, but I take the format of [extra] to be the official word? It doesn't seem to have been discussed before (as best I can find in my searching) so thought I would raise it.
I have packages in AUR using both formats and I want to bring them in line with "the right way", whichever that is ;)
Cheers, ~p
Hi Phillip, I'm not aware of any official recommendation. I prefer "apache-mod_name" because it's consistent with other recommended module naming schemes. In the absence of a better argument I recommend that you go with that. I wouldn't place too much weight on the naming scheme in [extra]. There are many examples of packages in the official repos that clearly break conventions. Regards, Xyne
