Hello all, sorry if this is not in the appropriate mailing list. I am developing an AUR package, and it says that pkgrel is a required field. Right now, I simply leave it at 1, but I want to know how I should really use it and what its purpose is.

Thanks, Yash

This mailing list is fine for any discussion about developing AUR packages, including questions about the PKGBUILD format. But I am curious -- have you read the wiki documentation at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PKGBUILD#pkgrel and if so, is there anything that was still unclear to you after reading it? -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
