From d6f62ba22d5c6da484f4a7f0876b203ad545342a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Xavier Chantry Date: Sat, 23 Aug 2008 16:34:42 +0200 Subject: makepkg : allow to specify a download filename A source entry can now have the following form, to specify a different filename : "filename::http://path/to/file" Of course, the old syntax is still supported : "http://path/to/file" And as before, in the second case, the filename used is simply "file". This fixes FS#11292, because handling multiple source files with the same name is now possible (just choose a different filename). But it will also allow to deal much more nicely with funny url like this by using a sane filename (and unfortunately, there are quite a few) : http://www.vim.org/scripts/download_script.php?src_id=6992 Signed-off-by: Xavier Chantry Signed-off-by: Dan McGee --- doc/PKGBUILD.5.txt | 4 ++++ doc/makepkg.conf.5.txt | 13 +++++++------ 2 files changed, 11 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) (limited to 'doc') diff --git a/doc/PKGBUILD.5.txt b/doc/PKGBUILD.5.txt index 0b1ce649..9db10576 100644 --- a/doc/PKGBUILD.5.txt +++ b/doc/PKGBUILD.5.txt @@ -87,6 +87,10 @@ similar to `$_basekernver`. variables if possible when specifying the download location.
