this simple addition makes it easy to implement split package support in our db-scripts.
But it might be a quite useful information anyway and thus not Arch related.
Sorry for pushing this, but it would be nice to know if there is a chance that a patch like this would be accepted or not. If there is anything I can do, let me know.
I'd say this is very likely to go in. I'd say definitely if we going to include this in -S/Qi output, which I think is very justified. But there is already a lot of "None" entries...
pacman -Si | wc -l 80913
pacman -Si | grep "None" | wc -l 19179
19179/80913 = 23% Between this and the makedepends inclusion (I'd say less likely to go in...), we really need to have a general discussion about what we want included in the the .PKGINFO file and pacman database files. Allan
