Modifying the PKGBUILD android-sdk to install to a user's home directo
Hello all Arch users.
I want the way how to do it
"Note: As an alternative to a global install with the AUR packages, the SDK can be installed to a user's home directory via the upstream instructions."
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/An … components
Because I have little space in / opt.
I thought about using hard links but I think this is not good.

"via the upstream instructions" means install it directly without making a package - so no PKGBUILD is required.
More generally, pacman never touches any user's home directory.

Thx tomk.
I need to have the android-sdk (/opt/android-sdk) since it depends on eclipse-android? I can not remove it?

Install the eclipse plugin in your home directory too:

You mean, it never touches usually (=by convention) or that it cannot, in any way, do it?
