@gonzo2028: There are 2 alternative ways: 1. @aaronfischer splits the package into 25 different ones and whenever there is an update he will have to update 25 individual packages; good for the useres, not so good for the maintainer. 2. @aaronfischer "merges" all the files from the split packages into a single package. This will result in installing binaries, udev rules and .desktop files for 25 devices for every user. Less work for the maintainer, not practical for the users. As is it, the maintainer maintains one single "split-package" and users that use an AUR helper such as yaourt, can uninstall the packages they don't need. This way users get to keep only the files they need to support their own device and the maintainer does not have to modify and commit 25 packages every time there is an update. Hope this helps clear it.

@edward_81: Please read the previous comments here. I've talked to Stefan about this. Every version of roccat-tools need a specific version of libgaminggear to work correctly. There are two options here: Consistent/reliable package and a little bit of hasle on upgrades -- or easy upgrade process and the chance of a broken package with weird bugs everywhere. I've choosen the first option.

Is possible to change the dependency line for libgaminggear from: libgaminggear=0.11.1 to: libgaminggear>=0.11.1 Because every time i try to upgrade the system with yaourt/aur, it complain that roccat-tool-common need that exactly version of libgaminggear.

@aaronfischer: thanks, this fixed it. Is there any way to avoid having all those keyboard-specific packages installed? I assume i only need the roccat-tools-ryosmk and the roccat-tools-common. Updating it means to rebuild all those packages -> this takes ages with yaourt. Thanks in advance.

@aaronfischer Please look at the follow up regarding uhid here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=221441 I let a small bug slip into the package. Sorry about that.

@aaronfischer Thank you! That worked.

@frederick_monk, @Gonzo2028: You need to reinstall the libgaminggear package. cmake changes the directory from cmake-3.6 to cmake-3.7. The definition files for libgaminggear still sit on cmake-3.6 and due to this fact, cmake can't find the it. So, reinstalling libgaminggear fixes the problem.

It does not build for me: CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:84 (FIND_PACKAGE): By not providing "FindGAMINGGEAR0.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "GAMINGGEAR0", but CMake did not find one. Could not find a package configuration file provided by "GAMINGGEAR0" (requested version 0.15.0) with any of the following names: GAMINGGEAR0Config.cmake gaminggear0-config.cmake Add the installation prefix of "GAMINGGEAR0" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "GAMINGGEAR0_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "GAMINGGEAR0" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.

Thanks Francisco for your investigation and the PKGBUILD. I've made several changes on it so it will fit nicely into the package (and will remove after uninstalling the package). roccat-rools.install will take care of reloading the rules after update/install/remove.

Stunts commented on 2017-01-03 00:48 (UTC)

After dealing with the problem described [here](https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=221441), I have provided the PKGBUILD with the required changes to automate the process [here](https://gist.github.com/StuntsPT/cd3ef67a5ac30e168cb6774ea939f55f). It should solve similar problems to mine. Please let me know if it looks acceptable for you.
