I usually don't use pgp on my aur packages because people tend to complain a lot about building issues. They fail to handle the keys and start complaining to the packager, and this is a big stress. When dealing with repository packages this is another story, of course. Since this was raised as a main issue, I'll be adding the pgp checks back again.
I know that we should not use msg2 because it's makepkg internal. But it helps to diagnose user problems by helping to identify at which stage a build error is happening. For sure I can remove it if required to. ;)
You're not helping your case. The pgp issue has well been covered, so I'll skip that for now. For msg2, the response that you know you're not supposed to use it but decided to anyway doesn't inspire confidence. printf or echo would have done the job just as well, but you used something you knew you weren't supposed to? To clarify, as I originally said, your PKGBUILDs that I spot checked are generally good and I think you could make a good TU. You seem to be willing to work with people, and that's a good sign. There's just some things that make me wonder if now is the time. Doug
