I had a quick look at the prototype and it looked fine. Then I had a quick look at the comments I made in the previous thread, and all the issues I discussed were dealt with: 1) a way to override the package variables 2) a style close enough to the one already in use by kdemod, that is multi functions (it was my favorite style anyway) 3) usage of subdirs to allow the possibility of -R / repackage So it looks great to me. _______________________________________________ pacman-dev mailing list [email protected] http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/pacman-dev
