Hi,
The main thing I need to do to finish the package splitting work (apart from documentation...) is to fix the repackaging. So this is what I intend to do:
1) Old style PKGBUILD [no package() function or splitpkg]: Behaviour unchanged. 2) With package() function or split packages: The package() function or package_*() functions are run.
With split packages, the package_*() functions have to be run as that is where all the pkgname, pkgdesc, etc are overridden. I think it makes sense to do so with the package() function too. And I could see that being a lot more helpful as I could fix a broken install line etc while packaging.
Comments?
+1 from me if you didn't do this already. :) -Dan
