We may use single backup. I do not think that the same file should be
backuped in one package and should not be in another. More over it
means these are conflicting packages splitted from one.

about desc and group:

subpackages=(dev doc)
pkgdesc = "qweqwe"
pkgdesc_dev="asdasd"
pkgdesc_doc="zxczxc"
...
groups=()
groups_dev=()
groups_doc=()
...

may be replace subpackages with
pkgname=(foo foo-dev foo-doc)
?
