pkgbase/pkgname distinction (pbget --resolve-pkgbases)

asp / official repositories

1. Query by pkgbase
◇ OK, retrieved from refs/heads/packages/* (svntogit, TTL=3600)
2. Query by pkgname
◇ OK, there exists pkgbase such that pkgname == pkgbase
◇ RESOLVE, otherwise
☐ archweb interface

Queries done element-wise (git targets)

aur-fetch / AUR

1. Query by pkgbase
◇ OK, retrieved from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages (or pkgbase.gz)
2. Query by pkgname
◇ OK, there exists pkgbase such that pkgname == pkgbase
◇ RESOLVE, otherwise
☐ aurweb interface: aur query -t info target

Queries done element-wise (git targets)

Combined

Check in order:
1. Official repositories
2. AUR

Worst-case no. requests per package: 4 (svntogit/packages, archweb, aur/packages, aurweb)

Directory structure

• aur fetch
◇ package/PKGBUILD
◇ Git repository

• asp export
◇ package/PKGBUILD
◇ Flat directory

• asp checkout
◇ package/repos/repo-arch/PKGBUILD
◇ package/trunk/PKGBUILD
◇ Git repository

As we can see there is no 1-to-1 correspondence between `aur-fetch` and `asp` in this case.
