# ** For anyone wanting to build a modularised Sugar for Arch **
#
# Note that one can always use just jhbuild, and provide the
# resulting project as a bundle. This means you would have to take
# care of _conflicting with_ and _providing for_ the dependencies
# that are pulled in by jhbuild. This is NOT "modularised".
#
# In the spirit of KISS, if we need to do that, then might as well
# just provide a modular group of packages. If you're finding it hard
# to digest, consider the easy-e17 package to be a likely analogy:
#
# http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22793
#
# However, we don't have the luxury of a pre-existing group (since
# nobody has created a buildscript for anything sugar-related) like
# "e" or "e-svn", so we have to deal with dependencies individually.
#
# Syntax: pkgname .. location (NA="not available") .. comments
#
# If you don't see any of the missing packages or sugar-related ones
# surfacing as PKGBUILD buildscripts or binary packages, then I
# obviously haven't had the time. You're encouraged to continue
# independently from here ;)
#
# If I do end up finishing up porting the entire Sugar environment,
# you will not find it on AUR. I will most probably be opening up
# a google project, something like "archlinux-sugar", as it's pretty
# big altogether (plus I don't have my own space to host them).
# Placing them in AUR first would (1) give me a headache, and (2) give
# YOU a headache as well.
#
# And yeah.. [unsupported]="AUR"
