Hey,
I built a few packages using makepkg, etc., and I created a repository for my own personal use. I was just wondering, how are meta-packages, like "gnome" and "gnome-extra", created?
I've looked through the wiki, forums, etc. and nothing mentions it. I've also looked through abs, and the ftp, and none of the meta-packages seem to appear, yet they work?
I tried a PKGBUILD with a bunch of dependencies, but that doesn't seem to do it either (it requires a build(), etc.)
Any clues?

Those are called groups in Arch - just add the field groups=('mygroupname') to every package that belongs in that group.
