paka script was made with goal to just convert Arch package to spkg format for Archpup, handlingScooby wrote:So how do you handle dependencies?simargl wrote: Important: Script does not resolve dependencies, and 2nd argument must be full package name
This is for directly installing Arch packages, I prefer to convert PKGBUILD to def and then compile package in Alpha OS,
If not using paca but convert PKGBUILD to def will this
automagically include dependencies?
dependencies there was not necessary - that script is still exactly the same.
When you convert PKGBUILD to def, dependencies will be written to def file and they will be
automatically installed with main package from the mirror.
example: if you type spkg -gi qt4 (or use gui package manager)
dependency sqlite will also be installed, because Qt depends on that package
