Don't take this personally... you're just the one who happened to bring it up. Do we _really_ need all this duplication? Does every kernel in the AUR needs its own _from_ _source_ instructions to build kernel modules? Really, these should all be about 3-4 lines to change in the extra/nvidia PKGBUILD. Instead, we have... nvidia-apparmor nvidia-bede nvidia-bfs nvidia-bl nvidia-ck nvidia-custom nvidia-fbcondecor nvidia-ice nvidia-ll nvidia-lqx nvidia-mainline nvidia-pae nvidia-pf nvidia-rifs nvidia-rt nvidia-uksm nvidia-zen I'm sure these are all unique and beautiful in their own way, but really, they're all duplicates as far as I'm concerned. nvidia is the biggest offender of this, but it certainly applies to other modules as well. </rant> dave
