[aur-general] About PKGBUILD of the automatic nightly builds
Recently,I was attracted by the songbird and nightingage media player based on Mozilla Tech.And I noticed these to nightly build PKGBUILD in AUR whose pkgver is part of a shell command string,and I want to do something to make that pkgver recognised by the AUR interface. Anyone who can tell me how to write a automatic nightly build PKGBUILD?Or,is there any standard on nightly build PKGBUILD? Thanks! bin32-songbird-nightly:https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=44366 songbird-nightly-bin:https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=32932

Short answer: Please don't do this sort of magical garbage. As an AUR helper author, I send apples full of razor blades to people who do this. Long answer: If you insist, you can probably fool the AUR with a redefinition, in the same way that split packages are done, e.g. pkgver=2011.12.19 : && pkgver=$(<<<cat sed statement) The first definition of the pkgver will still be the one that remains as the AUR's recognized version, though. dave

dave I under stand what you saying,I found these orphaned PKGBIULDs in AUR with what your said magical garbage and made the AUR looks aweful.So I adopted them and trying to correct that,but I didn't know what exaclty should be done to these nightly build kind of PKGBUILD whith automatic detecting pkgver tricks,that why this mail came to the list?
I will update them with the removing of all that tricks.
