JDS definitely needs consideration however, as it still delivers SVR4

JDS upstream uses new versions of pkgbuild/pkgtool to create IPS packages
directly - all the spec files should have all the metadata needed for that.

Perhaps you just need to update to newer pkgbuild and add the --ips flag
and
set PKGBUILD_IPS_SERVER ?

That's exceptionally helpful to know - thanks! That is going to make things much much easier.

Unfortunately, it's IPS support is a bit behind and hasn't kept up with
things
like file:// repos and *.p5p archives, but it should be better than
distro-import. (You'll note distro-import for current snv builds doesn't
import JDS,
but that happened post-151 if I recall correctly.)

That's not too much of an issue.

Thanks again,

Alasdair
