2) split package support
Currently the PKGBUILD is only found in /var/abs/$repo/$pkgbase.  This
would make it difficult to find a split package directly.  Should the
db-scripts add symlinks from $pkgbase to ${pkgna...@]}?  That would have
a bonus effect of reserving at the split package names.

Where should that symlink be? In the users /var/abs dir? And how could db-
scripts do that?

My idea was symlinks in SVN. When db-scripts find a package with pkgbase set, it should create symlinks for each of ${pkgname[*]} to $pkgbase (provided $pkgname[?] != $pkgbase). If the symlink exists, they should check that it is already pointing to the right folder or otherwise there could be multiple packages with the same name.
