They are formally well written IMHO. 4l: Dependency to gcc is not needed, it is in base-devel, and you have a mkdir -p which should be a install -d You can consider to replace $startdir/src with $srcdir and $startdir/pkg with $pkgdir in some PKGBUILDS. But that are minor issues. Can you please explain what EDA and GPGPU means? I did a little googling, but the pages I found go far beyond my skills in computer science. Do you have some projects for packaging in mind in that direction? Regards Stefan
