Thanks. I am well aware of AUR packaging. I just hadn't built a package with a dependency that is in AUR, not in the repos.
This package is not for me, but for uploading to AUR. So you are suggesting I use the PKGBUILD of the depdency package as a template in my own PKBUILD to build it, then? Thanks!
