aur doesn't support split builds

That's bad because makepkg does and I'd like to build kernel26-fbcondecor on top of kernel26 because my intention is to have the stock kernel with the additional fbcondecor patch. Is there a way to add support for split packages to AUR? Greetings, Heiko

Grab the source code and write some patches. http://projects.archlinux.org/aur.git/

Make sure to read the HACKING file. If you have any other questions you can ask them on the aur-dev mailing list.

Cheers.

If anyone has the courage to do this, I suggest looking into using a PKGBUILD parsing library I wrote[1]. since this would delegate parsing to an external library, future changes like these would be much easier. [1]: http://github.com/sebnow/pkgparse

Hi, I guess the package freetype2-static can be removed from AUR. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18319 It's obsolete because freetype2 has the static library included again since a long time. And freetype2-static is out-of-date and orphaned. Greetings, Heiko

Could someone, please, delete the duplicate and orphaned package x11/libtxc_dxtn? http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15571

It's a duplicate of this unfortunately also no longer maintained package lib/libtxc_dxtn. http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=21519

Why is the older one the duplicate ?

The newer one also got the license wrong : http://homepage.hispeed.ch/rscheidegger/dri_experimental/s3tc_index.html the code itself is all BSD licensed

Other than that, the two pkgbuilds are a bit different but should do the job.

Just delete the package you want. I thought the older one had an incomplete arch array and was only for i686 while the other one was also for x86_64, but I was wrong. I don't care which one to delete. Btw., the older one has the correct package name with the _ instead of an -. Heiko
