@Lutrim It's not the case that I "do not want to distribute the binary version". It's simply because this package is not for using pre-compiled binaries, but for building from source. It's the package objective, simple like that. A package with pre-compiled binaries would need to be a separated one, with a different name, a different PKGBUILD, and so on. Regarding to the semantic terms that you used, please remember that the AUR do not distribute pre-compiled binaries (even on '-bin' packages), but it only provides build scripts (recipe files) for the user to create an Arch Linux package by his own for using with pacman, so the term "distribute the binary" does not apply to the AUR as a whole.

@dbermond, I heard you, however it is a pity that you do not want to distribute the binary version.

@Lutrim This package is for building from source. If you want pre-compiled binaries you need to look for another package. As the kernel is a critical and configure-specific software, it would be better to use a build specific for Arch Linux, which upstream does not provide.

@dbermond, These are packages that do not require assembly, as they are already completely ready for installation. For example, the librewolf packages and its binary version librewolf-bin.
