Hi,
I think we should promote the use of .AURINFO files. Currently, only a very small fraction of packages use it. A basic description of its format can be found in the commit message of AUR commit 5a11373 [1]. Regardless of whether we keep that format or use something entirely different for metadata later, it is good to have this information stored somewhere and the format is simple enough to migrate to another format later.
Hi, I read the commit info but why do we need another file? What's the purpose of overriding PKGBUILD variables in AUR? Cheers, -- Sébastien "Seblu" Luttringer https://seblu.net GPG: 0x2072D77A
