I think for overall purposes, it’s convenient that your Makefile can install to local (~.local/) directories, and patch supplied here makes the Makefile adhere to Arch packaging guidelines without changes to your source code.

npm install MUST stay in the PKGBUILD:

These files would also be outside of the package manager’s control

Sorry, I just only now saw that you want to keep a directory in /usr/share/ at 0777 and make the user write files to there. That’s not a good idea.

@Rafostar: that works! great work!

the only small issue is that nautilus-cast-to-tv.py should go into "${pkgdir}/usr/share/nautilus-python/extensions/

@peippo Thanks for clarifying. Can you check if install would now be OK with latest git master and something like:

make install PKGDIR="${pkgdir}" CUSTOMPATH="${pkgdir}/usr/share/gnome-shell/extensions"

peippo commented on 2020-03-13 11:10 (UTC)

@Rafostar: but everything must go in ${pkgdir}

@peippo This is not true. When CUSTOMPATH is defined the Makefile will install to that path, automatically compile and install gschemas and translations to system global dirs (/usr/share) and set correct permissions to node_modules folder which makes the prefs terminal work correctly (see lines 70-82). I specially made it to do so to allow global installs without any mods and custom code. I am not an Arch user. Does arch require other paths than '/usr/share' in Makefile?

peippo commented on 2020-03-13 08:54 (UTC)

@Rafostar: no, that’s not possible, because the Makefile still installs into hard-coded global paths (lines 66-74)
