I have to ask before i understand it false: In the future it could be possible
to do at example a "makepkg --convert SPEC.FILE" to create a PKGBUILD from a
specfile or better a "makepkg --create SOURCE.src.rpm" to create a PKGBUILD
with all included patches from the rpm file? if yes, this could be a very
nice feature for coming more together in the linux world and profites from
patches which are developed and tested from redhat or suse or anyone else who
haves the money for doing this.
