Yes, thanks @cmounce! Just fixed that. Won't push a new pkgrel for that.

FYI, I see in the Git log that you renamed some patch files, but it looks like they got duplicated instead of getting renamed?

Here's the current tree. There are two identical copies of the 001- patch, as well as of the 002- patch. It showed up in my Git diff as a bunch of added lines of code, and it took me a minute to figure out what was going on.

Based on the sources that are actually being used, I think we just need to delete 001-kill-pangox.patch and 002-gtk2.20.patch.

No worries. I have added the gnome.org source as well. You can choose which one to use by editing the PKGBUILD. I pkgdiff'ed them and there are no changes on this date. Fedora and consorts use gnome.org as a source (while many other distro's use SourceForge, as can be traced via repology).

Thanks for checking and making sure things are in order.

Ah, okay if that was the original source for the version in the official repos, then my concerns are gone. I do see that Sourceforge was the original source according to https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/gtkglext/-/blob/main/PKGBUILD?ref_type=heads

No need to change if that's been working fine, I was just being cautious whenever I install a new AUR package. Thanks for the clarification @lquidfire!

I copied the PKGBUILD that had been used on official Archlinux repos before it was orphaned. Not sure what source other distro's use, but I do see sourceforge referenced there as well gnome.org. Could have a look to see if there is any difference between the sources. Thanks for bringing this up.

Is there a reason why this package is using Sourceforge as a source and not an official Gnome repo like https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gtkglext

Is Sourceforge even an official source for gtkglext? I can't find any reference to Sourceforge from the Web Archives of the defunct gtkglext page: https://projects.gnome.org/gtkglext/

This just makes it harder to verify whether this AUR package is grabbing from correct sources and not some random repo.

Hi MarsSeed,

Thanks, and thank you for the suggestions.

I've added glib2, but not yet uploaded.

Question 1: pango was dropped 16 years ago. Not sure why. I have re-added it in the meantime.

Question 2: What is this libgl? I can't find it. libglvnd is the vendor-neutral version that will use whichever driver is in use?

Thank you for your reply! Cheers!

Hm, also please kindly change the depends=libglvnd to the interface name depends=libgl (declaring a virtually provided name of the former package).

This is the established packaging convention on Arch.

Hi, thank you for this fine PKGBUILD.

Please kindly add the following needed direct dependencies, as per reported by the official Arch namcap package analysis tool:

Thanks in advance!
