Hi, The two packages use different sources, as GNOME and GNOME Flashback require different sets of session files and other, peripheral configuration. That is, these packages aren't just different in their PKGBUILD files. Thanks, Alex On Sat, 19 Oct, 2019 at 15:30, notify@aur.archlinux.org wrote:

These packages are identical except this one adds gnome-flashback as a dependency. The project at least requires it as an optional dependency, but there's no reason for two packages.
