...snipp
#ffmpeg from cvs?
...snap

ffmpeg in testing actually is a snapshot. Even the developers of recommend using it, so I wonder why they don't release stuff. An alpha-bata-rc-whatever
tarball would even be nice.
But for you the testing package should be sifficient.

Re: [new] mlt++ [multimedia]

Heya,

same comments as for the mlt-package:

I made it a little bit more conform to archlinux packaging standards. It hopefully won't ask for a password anymore. I also changed the name of the package to "mlt-cvs". I also changed the date, so it makes a new package for each day and not for each hour.

It is not completely conform to the standard/example, but I'll notice if they like it. I've seen there is a script to automate the building of cvs-buildfiles. It may not work with my buildfile. I probably will remove the date-command. However, I like the flexibility of my cvs-variables ... I'll have to see how it compares to the archlinux-packaging standard and what comments I get about it from others.

greetings,

Michel

Re: [new] mlt++ [multimedia]

Heya,

I will probably upload this package to the AUR, but was wondering what people thought about the way I habdle cvs. It is a different than in the standard guidelines. I was wondering if I have to change it if I upload it to the AUR?

greetings,

Michel

Re: [new] mlt++ [multimedia]

You could put an underscore in front of your "home-made" variables to conform to the guidlines about that.  For the pkgver, you might want to changed it to a fixed number otherwise the AUR will garble it (see the amsn-cvs package).
