oops, makedepends must be global.

@timofonic Why? What's the problem with you?

@quininer Can you please fix dependencies on this package? As it is now, I consider this package both broken and outdated.

Can we add rust as dependency as discussed here: https://github.com/jwilm/alacritty/issues/718? Rust is now official package in Community repo and it contains cargo too. Maybe change makedepends=('cargo' 'cmake' 'git') to makedepends=('rust' 'cmake' 'git')?

@mmlb It should be in this package. I'll submit a merge request.

It be nice if the termino file was compiled and installed as part of this package and avoid the need for https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/alacritty-terminfo-git/. Is there a reason for it not being in this package?

Users of -git packages are expected to follow upstream development. This is probably especially important when the "software is considered to be at an alpha level of readiness".

Is there a need for these files? If so, why aren't they distributed with alacritty-git? Why aren't they mentioned in the readme? If not, what is their purpose? Excuse my ignorance, I just don't know what is their purpose, even after googling. Because other terminals don't ship them, I suppose?

I also maintain a -git package and honeslty - bumping a version once in a while, as soon as an important feature arrives is good for everyone and not really hard. Even if guidelines (IIRC) tell that there's no need to update such packages, I personally prefer to just to make life a bit easier for everyone else. So, thank you, quininer, for keeping it up to date.
