Hi, I maintain audacious-git and audacious-plugins-git and have a question:
audacious-plugins-git should be a dependency of audacious-git.
On the other side audacious-git should be a makedependency of audacious-git.
This is the case for the packages from [extra] (of course without -git)
How is it now possible to compile audacious / audacious-plugins if both packages are not installed?
And how should I handle this in the PKGBUILD?
Thanks for an answer

The audacious-plugins package need only be a dependency of audacious for usability reasons: it is not required to build it. So it is easy to "manually" bootstrap by first compiling an audacious PKGBUILD without the audacious-plugins dependency. In the AUR, of course, that's not so handy, and I believe the best solution to your issue is to have audacious-plugins-git as an optdepends (not a depends) in the audacious-git PKGBUILD, and remind your users that they very likely want to install it.

I added an information to the install-file and found out that 'audacious-plugins' was added as dependency with version 2.1.
Marking as solved.
