Hi guys!

In the last days i have experienced some problems with kernel26-bfs and relative nvidia drivers. I don't think it's packagers' fault. But the only way I used to make the kernel package  work it out is to use the PKGBUILD from the arch repository adapted to my needs.PKGBUILD for splitted packages is the main difference. I guess that could reduce maintainers' workload. I read we can't use this way to make packages, but why?

Thanks! Bye

The AUR doen't support split PKGBUILD.

Voted! Hope this will be fixed in the near future!

Thank you!

So....I'm gonna find out why these PKGBUILDs fail!

Simply because AUR can't handle split packages. See and vote here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16394?project=2

But in the meantime it's not that hard to revert the kernel26 split package to a single package.
