Trouble Submitting to AUR

I'm trying to upload a package I created to the AUR and for some reason the process won't complete. Whenever I try to upload the file, the page pauses for a moment and then goes completely white. This can sit there for a while, but nothing ever happens. The tar ball that I'm uploading was created by pacman --source and only contains a PKGBUILD and a .desktop file. Has anybody ever experience this behavior? Any ideas what might be causing it?

Thanks!

Re: Trouble Submitting to AUR

Did you mean makepkg --source?

Re: Trouble Submitting to AUR

Your right I meant makepkg --source, sorry!

The PKGBUILD is for loxodo:

pkgname=loxodo-git
pkgver=20100825
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Password Safe V3 compatible Password Vault"
arch=(any)
url="http://www.christoph-sommer.de/loxodo/"
license=('GPL')
depends=('python')
optdepends=('wxpython: for Wx GUI')
makedepends=('git')
source=("loxodo.desktop") 
md5sums=("f0508bd30c1fb235d1fc7165f2c97f63" )

_gitroot="http://github.com/sommer/loxodo.git"
_gitname="loxodo-src"

build() {
  cd ${srcdir}
  msg "Connecting to GIT server...."

  if [ -d "${srcdir}/${_gitname}" ] ; then
    cd ${_gitname} && git pull --rebase
  else
    git clone ${_gitroot} ${_gitname}
  fi

  msg "GIT checkout done or server timeout"

  msg "Starting make..."

  rm -rf "$srcdir/$_gitname-build"
  git clone "$srcdir/$_gitname" "$srcdir/$_gitname-build"

}
package() {

  _PYVER=`python -V 2>&1`
  _PYVER=${_PYVER##*\ } 
  _PYVER=${_PYVER%.*}
  
  _DESTDIR=/usr/lib/python$_PYVER/site-packages/$pkgname
  cd "$srcdir/$_gitname-build"
  
  mkdir -p $pkgdir/$_DESTDIR
  cp -r ${srcdir}/$_gitname-build/* ${pkgdir}/$_DESTDIR
  install -D -m755 ${srcdir}/loxodo.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/loxodo.desktop || return 1

  mkdir ${pkgdir}/usr/bin
  echo "python $_DESTDIR/loxodo.py" > ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/loxodo
  chmod +x ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/loxodo
  rm  -rf  $startdir/src/$_gitname-build
}

Re: Trouble Submitting to AUR

I can't see anything there that would make AUR barf... Perhaps an AUR affectionado may need to weigh in. You might get better help on the AUR mailing list.
