Correct me if I'm wrong, but current Ubuntu packages ( http://debian.sflphone.org/dists/jaunty/universe/source/) are already split between -commn, -gnome and -kde. What am I missing? Because they are all inter-related (i.e. you need matching versions), it's > quite convenient to have them all in the same source package in my > opinion. Then it gets built into 4 different binary packages (-daemon, > -data, -gnome and -kde). I agree with you, but I was thinking about how could I build easily two separate "gnome-only" and "kde-only" binary packages from my pkgsrc without downloading the official source package more than once: splitting source packages would be the most obvious solution. By now I think I'll opt for the "dumb" way of downloading the same source multiple times, hoping that support for split packages will be added soon to official Arch packaging tools.
