Package Groups

Just a quick question...how do you create your own package groups? I don't wanna create a metapackage, ya know, one that just installs other package as dependencies, but a group, like arch has for 'xorg' or 'gnome'

Re: Package Groups

You dont need a metapackage. Just use group=('foo') in the PKGBUILDS you want
