[network : internet relay chat] eggdrop-1.6.16

Here is the PKGBUILD I wrote for the latest version of Eggdrop:

# Contributor: Rensel <rensel@email.it>

pkgname=eggdrop
pkgver=1.6.16
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="An IRC bot that supports TCL scripts"
url="ftp://ftp.eggheads.org/pub/eggdrop/source/1.6"
license="GPL"
depends=('tcl')
backup=()
source=($url/$pkgname$pkgver.tar.bz2)
md5sums=('bbbb77f9a1a28398f05ae433b482f4ac')
install=eggdrop.install

build() {
      cd $startdir/src/$pkgname$pkgver
      ./configure --prefix=/usr/share/$pkgname
    make config || return 1
      make || return 1
      make DEST=$startdir/pkg/usr/share/$pkgname install
    rm -rf $startdir/pkg/usr/share/$pkgname/doc/
}

...and the eggdrop.install:

# arg 1:  the new package version
post_install() {
  ln -sf /usr/share/eggdrop/eggdrop /usr/bin/eggdrop
  echo ''
  echo 'You MUST ensure that you edit/verify your configuration file.'
  echo 'An example configuration file, eggdrop.conf, is distributed with Eggdrop.'
  echo 'Remember to change directory to /usr/share/eggdrop before you proceed.'
  echo ''
}

# arg 1:  the new package version
# arg 2:  the old package version
post_upgrade() {
 /bin/true
}

# arg 1:  the old package version
pre_remove() {
  rm -f /usr/bin/eggdrop
}

op=$1
shift

$op $*

I uploaded the archive with the PKGBUILD, the package, the filelist and the eggdrop.install file as ftp://ftp.archlinux.org/incoming/eggdrop-1.6.16.tar.bz2 , I hope I didn't make mistakes!

A few things:
1. Why are you installing it to /usr/share/? /usr is the standard.
2. On Make Install, you should use DESTDIR=$startdir/pkg.
3. You can do the symlinking of `eggdrop` inside the PKGBUILD. Just do "ln -s /usr/share/eggdrop/eggdrop $startdir/pkg/usr/bin/eggdrop. It's obviously a broken symlink, but it'll work fine once the pkg is installed. This way you can get rid of the .install.

This program does not install the binaries in bin/, the manpages in man/ etc., but it uses his own directory... the default is /usr/local/eggdrop, but as Arch doesn't use /usr/local I thought /usr/share/eggdrop would be the right one. An alternative could be /opt/eggdrop, should I install it there?
