Re: [aur-general] question about git package as a dependency

Hi,

I was wondering if it would be ok to let my package (non-daw-git) depend on the ntk-git package instead of ntk. The package ntk is not yet available in AUR, but ntk-git is. I think technically, ntk-git should provide ntk, and non-daw-git should depend on some git-release of ntk. The downside for the user is that helpers like yaourt won't find the dependency.

BTW, I just did a small test here and yaourt does find the ntk-git dependency through AUR.

I was wondering what you guys think about this...

Greetings,
