Compiling is platform specific. Do not use 'any' for packages which
include compiled code.

They also use the aur packages afaik.

If you feel uncomfortable with including an unoffical architecture,
you could talk to upstream if they do anything platform specific and
if not just use "any" in the arch() array.
But I agree with wormzy tykashi and would just include armv*.

Packages in the AUR are unsupported by definition. I can't see anyone
reaching for their pitchforks over the inclusion of an architecture in
someone's arch array. I'd feel a bit uncomfortable adding an architecture
that I can't test myself, but if endusers say it works, then that's good
enough in my opinion.

I think you perhaps not to do so.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pkgbuild#arch
ArchLinux ARM Edition seems not to use AUR?Or actually ArchLinux ARM also
use the same AUR as i686/x86_64 ?

[aur-general] architecture question

2013-10-24 Thread Kuba Serafinowski 
Hi,

I recently got several requests to include armv7h in arch() of my
PKGBUILDs, is it okay to do it even though it's not officially supported?

Cheers,
Kuba
