Sounds good. Though, if I build a couple variants from a single PKGBUILD (which I think is what split-package means), wouldn't users need to have dependencies installed sufficient to build all of them? In that case, should I have separate PKGBUILD files? Thanks again. -hossbeast On Sun, Oct 17, 2021 at 4:00 AM Jonathon Fernyhough via aur-general <aur-general@lists.archlinux.org> wrote:

Very likely. I'd probably package them as $pkgname-wayland and $pkgname-xorg and have them both provide $pkgname.
(Though, if one backend was the upstream default then I might package that as $pkgname and the alternative as e.g. $pkgname-xorg)
