deps array question - needs either 'foo' or 'bar'
I wrote a little script that uses HandBrakeCLI for video conversion. The problem is that users can have installed one of several packages to source /usr/bin/HandBrakeCLI
extra/handbrake-cli
AUR/handbrake-cli-svn
At a minimum, my package needs extra/handbrake-cli but it can optionally use AUR/handbrake-svn. How can I write this into the deps array as either 'handbrake-cli' or 'handbrake-cli-svn' ... or is it just better to have the maintainer of the AUR package add a provides=handbrake-cli to his package?

The -svn package should have the provides entry added

Not something that I thought of doing because I didn't expect anything to depend on handbrake but I've added provides entries to the handbrake-svn PKGBUILD and will upload it when AUR comes back on line.
