[aur-general] How to package packages with *-common?
I have a program with one gsettings schema and 2 binaries. Schema required for both, but binaries does not require each other. How packaging tech will be best?

Assuming you want to be able to install the binaries separately, i'd use a split package with 3 package_ functions package_foo-common() { # schema } package_foo-binary1() { depends = foo-common # first binary } package_foo-2binary() { depends = foo-common # other binary }
I am already done this, but I think than Arch guidelines forbids this. On Mon, Apr 13, 2015 at 5:18 PM, LoneVVolf <lonewolf@xs4all.nl> wrote:

And makedepends is very different (XFCE and some from LXDE). On Mon, Apr 13, 2015 at 5:55 PM, Konstantin P. <ria.freelander@gmail.com> wrote:

First off, please don't top post. Second, why do you think that?

What topping means? Can you explain? About second - because LO packages was joined in one.

Top posting is putting your message above the quoted text. It should be under it. LibreOffice was merged back into one package because there were all kinds of weird interdependencies. It has nothing to do with what you're talking about. Doug

"Top-posting" means to reply above the quotes, like this: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text. Q wrote: >Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

Thanks for explaining. This is an issue of mobile GMail for Android, I think. Sorry,but I do not know what to do with it. On Apr 13, 2015 11:18 PM, "Ralf Mardorf" <info.mardorf@rocketmail.com> wrote:

It's not just mobile - web Gmail is painful for mailing list replies inline as well. Google's webUI doesn't have much control, so most folks just top-post because they've made it kinda hard. And our Outlook friends, same problem -- top posting is how all these clients work. Only if you're using a traditional client (in my travels and opinion) like Thunderbird or mutt makes it easy to work with mailing lists. *shrug* </offtopic> -te

Clicking the little button on the lower left on in the reply box is hardly hard ;) -- Sincerely, Johannes Löthberg PGP Key ID: 0x50FB9B273A9D0BB5 https://theos.kyriasis.com/~kyrias/
