[aur-general] Updating PKGBUILD tarballs
Hey, guys... I'm a newbie with a question. Presuming I've already uploaded example-4.5-1.src.tar.gz to AUR, when I later make maintenance changes, do I just upload my example-4.6-1.src.tar.gz the same way? That is, will AUR just smartly figure out that it's an update of an existing package? (I'm guessing it'll key off packagename/myname...?) Thanks! -Beej
Yes, you assumed right. You ought to have read http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR_User_Guidelines and http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Packaging_Standards (:

Cool.

Already have done, so I was quite hoping I didn't just miss this detail about how uploading new revisions worked. (Or else it would look like I hadn't read the docs!) :) -Beej, long-time Slacker dabbling in what seems to be another promising distro

Please add a note to the wiki page if you think it might be of benefit to new users. Thanks!
