@madeiros they are just make dependencies, so you can uninstall them after building (tip: use -r with makepkg). Also, these dependencies are overall quite small (each is an individual haskell package), so it should download pretty quickly without occupying much space. IMO, it's better to have a lot of small dependencies that each do a single thing (UNIX philosophy) than having one massive dependency that bundles a lot of unused cruft.

That said, it's up to you. Do whatever you want with your system.

autotrash needs now 226 new haskell dependencies...just for one man page ! It's crazy... I stay with previous version.

autotrash has a man page, could you add it to the package? You'll need to add pandoc to the makedepends.

You're right, but I figured we could "kill two birds with one stone", as they say. Thanks for the quick fix!

The only difference between v0.4.2 (current) and v0.4.3 is some metadata for pypi (see https://github.com/bneijt/autotrash/compare/0.4.2...0.4.3 ), so I didn't think an update was necessary for AUR, but I'm updating anyways for the dependency fix.

Also, v0.4.3 is available.

python-setuptools needs to be a hard-dependency (depends, not makedepends) otherwise autotrash doesn't work:

    from pkg_resources import get_distribution, DistributionNotFound

This is also documented in the wiki:

If the resulting package includes executables which import the pkg_resources module, then setuptools must be additionally specified as a depends in the split package_*() functions; alternatively, if the PKGBUILD only installs the Python package for a single version of Python, setuptools should be moved from makedepends to depends.
