Hello again XD I'm trying to upload the language pack for iceweasel, but when I try (https://aur.archlinux.org/pkgsubmit.php) I get an error which tells me It is only allowed to use small letters :S the pkbuild is the following: http://pastebin.com/bT4fdtPE It's taken from the parabolalinux official PKGBUILD ( https://projects.parabolagnulinux.org/abslibre.git/tree/libre/iceweasel-i18n ) Could you tell me why do I get this error?

The AUR does not accept split PKGBUILDs. There's no shortage of examples of how to work around this.

Mmm... could you explain that a little please? :S If I make a single PKGBUILD for any language, will it work?

You put a black magic inside "pkgname=" and AUR won't parse that. If you make a single PKGBUILD, it will work for sure.

Fix: I meant sigle PKGBUILD for *each* language.

here's a slightly more readable version that doesn't make my eyes bleed [1]. I can also assist you in dynamically creating those language PKGBUILDs if you can wait a couple of hours until I get up. Write me on irc if you have questions. cheers! mar77i [1] http://pastebin.com/KDvCKZpp

Thanks to the both two :D Of course I can wait, in fact I'm going to sleep right now (4:10 am) so we can talk later :) Rafael... :S what a pitty :S but there's another way to set the pkgname? :S

This will do [1]. Tested the first one, it builds. You could also script updating the pkgbuilds, once they are in place. Also it requires burp to be present on the system for uploading. For the raw paste, remove the /bash postfix. cheers! mar77i [1] http://ix.io/2Ij/bash

oh, line 5 -f is missing after the exclamation mark. it should tests if it's executed in place... +if ! [[ -f ./metaPKBUILD ]]; then sorry if that is clear and/or of too little importance. cheers! mar77i

mmm it works! but, it makes individual packages, depending on the first language on the line 'for lang in af ak ar as ast be bg bn-BD bn-IN br bs ca cs csb cy da de el en-GB en-ZA eo es-AR es-CL es-ES es-MX et eu fa ff fi fr fy-NL ga-IE gd gl gu-IN he hi-IN hr hu hy-AM id is it ja kk km kn ko ku lg lij lt lv mai mk ml mr nb-NO nl nn-NO nso or pa-IN pl pt-BR pt-PT rm ro ru si sk sl son sq sr sv-SE ta-LK ta te th tr uk vi zh-CN zh-TW zu; do' I've erased iceweasel in the line 11 because it forced me to have iceweasel installed and my pc nowadays can't install iceweasel (power... it fails compiling) Anyway, after that I added pkgver pkgrel and arch after pkgname (makepkg --source asked me for them) and now it makes the src.tar.gz of the last language, and creates a folder with independent PKGBUILD's for any language... I think I'll use that to make makepkg --source in any directory individually now ;) thanks :D

sorry, just a correction, the change that made makepkg --source to autocompile the last and not the first was commenting the last lines (the ones of burp)

Sorry for remailing... I think the problem it's on the function ((i++)) After doing the EOF for the first, it returns to the PKGBUILD directory, then it fails with a "User defined exit 1" message
