Re: [aur-general] How to depend a pkg on two alternative packages?

* Damian Nowak <enwukaer@gmail.com> [2015-03-14 12:50:32 -0500]:

If you maintain "pyaudio" package, you could add provides=(pygame) to it.

Then the package that you're now creating would just need to have depends=(pygame).

That's a bad idea. Then everything depending on pygame would consider that dependency satisfied when pyaudio is installed, and thus break.
