Questions about pkgbuild: checkout source from svn, using scons, ...

Hi all, I want to provide a PKGBUILD for the SuperCollider3 music software, and I have some questions:
1) the project needs to be checked out from sourceforge svn. Is this possible with a pkgbuild?
2) the project builds with Scons instead of the usual ./configure && make && make install. Can I just scons commands `scons && scons install` here, or will that lead to problems?
3) the project can use emacs as an interface; for this emacs needs to be installed at compile time. It will work without emacs when that isn't installed, but a parameter to scons needs to be given in that case. I could try if the emacs binary is available and if it isn't, add the extra option, or is there a better/preferred way to handle this?

Thanks!

Hi...

At the moment I only can answer you number one:
Yes, that's possible...
BUT: make sure that your PKGBUILD follows the Arch CVS & SVN PKGBUILD guidelines (see here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=14058)
If you want an example PKGBUILD that checks out sources from svn, take a look at one of my PKGBUILD's: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?d … =1&ID=8134

Have a nice day...
