hello,

why do we need package splitting ? personnaly i dont want to have a
complete package like gambas installed because i only need its runtime
and this goes for very other packages.

i was messing with makepkg latly to find a way to add spliting packages ability,
i like the rpm way but ithink it doesnt share the arch goals.

the way ithink about is having a global PKGNFO file and a
PKGBUILD_subpkg-name for every sub package wich contains the build
scripts for it.

i think this way it will always be KISS and also doesn need so much
messing on makepkg script.

Virtually,
Elyess
