Description

Xyne sent me a message asking about ABS

The message reads as follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Daenyth,

Could you please include the arch-games.abs.tar.gz file in the Arch Linux Gaming Repository? If you check the official repos you will find that each one contains a $repo.abs.tar.gz file that contains all of the PKGBUILDs and local source files for packages in that repo. Adding such an archive to [arch-games] would make it possible to build its packages from source using Bauerbill (check my site or the community contributions section of the forum for more info).

Thanks.

I'm not sure how this would work. I think the official repos have a script scan SVN to generate that. We'd have to do it by hand because we don't have our version control locked in sync with the repo.

Any ideas?

We should clean up our master branch to reflect the packages of our repo. Simply setup another branch for all other PKGBUILD's. This way we can automate the abs stuff
