[aur-general] python-rst2beamer
I guess the package name needs to be edited to python2-rst2beamer to conform to Arch package naming convention. -- mon site web: hack-libre.org
sinma, rst2beamer appears to be intended for use by end users on the command line. [1] Thus, the package should be called "rst2beamer", not python{,2}-rst2beamer. The package should also install a simple wrapper script at /usr/bin/rst2beamer. There's a couple other issues with the package, too: variables are not properly quoted, "|| return 1" is included in the script, and an md5sums array is used instead of a sha256sums array. Have you contacted the maintainer about this? They may be happy to upload a new package named rst2beamer with the appropriate fixes. If that is done, a merge request can be made to the new aur-requests mailing list. — Jeremy "Ichimonji10" Audet

His/er e-mail seems invalid. <https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/py/python-rst2beamer/PKGBUILD> I don’t know about the other issues, I just wanted to report the package naming issue, I’m not using the package nor I am going to. -- mon site web: hack-libre.org
