[aur-general] Incorrect name when downloading from source=()
Hello, To package cellwriter, I need to download this patch[1]. But once downloaded, the name of the file is attachment?aid=-5287197620305474653name=cellwriter-1.3.4-cellwidget-dont-disable-xinput.diff instead of just cellwriter-1.3.4-cellwidget-dont-disable-xinput.diff. - Is it a big problem ? I mean if another user do not use wget will my PKGBUILD work for him ? - Is there a way to force a correct behavior ? [1] http://cellwriter.googlecode.com/issues/attachment?aid=-5287197620305474653name=cellwriter-1.3.4-cellwidget-dont-disable-xinput.diff

Btw, I'm pretty close friends with the author of cellwriter. If he needs to do a general patch upstream or something, I'm sure I can get him to. Anything up? Cheers, -AT

Cheers, -AT It seems the patch is indeed in discussion. Of course for now some are experiencing crashes, but the solution given by the patch is discussable. Well at least that's what I understood. I think the author is aware of that problem as the patch comes from is official bugtracker and he affected himself to the issue. I decided to apply the patch because if a developer can focus on what is good for its software, I think a packager should focus on usability. And from that point of view, a bad solution is temporarily better than software crashes making it unusable. And by the way, indeed, the answer was in the PKGBUILD man, I'm sorry I always forget that PKGBUILD has a man page, I usually only check wiki. I try to mark that in my head for next time ;) Cilyan
