Hi! I just started playing around with making my own PKGBUILDs and just
made one for the "*remarkable*" markdown editor. The problem with
*remarkable* is that it uses webkitgtk. I was able to find a PR to the
official project fixing this and I used this patch in my PKGBUILD. I

I don't think you need to be a programmer in order to maintain a package.
Don't adopt it unless you are willing to maintain it. If it's dated, then
flag it or adopt it and update it. As long as an package is out of date,
it's not a problem that it's orphaned really. It just means no one takes
respo
Depends on the project, but upstream usually has a list of dependencies in
the build instructions or somewhere at the development page.
What package are you trying to make a PKGBUILD for specifically?

In the documentation FAQ there's a "Is there a package for my Operating
System?" topic. From there there's a link to install instructions. Look
there. Otherwise it seems like they are happy to help you if you ask them.

I just made a merge-request for a package I maintain. But I'm curious
about what this actually means in practice when it's merged.
Will current users be notified in some way? Will they be redirected to
the new package? Or is it just about the votes?
If users are not notified, is there a smart way

A tip is to add something like this to .git/hooks/pre-commit in your local
repo:
```
makepkg --printsrcinfo > /tmp/.SRCINFO
diff -q .SRCINFO /tmp/.SRCINFO
```
git will then stop you from committing when .SRCINFO isn't up to date.
Cheers,
Mikael
