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?
