Caveats first:
I know the package I'm referring to is from the aur -- the linux-pf kernel.
I'm asking here rather than file a needless bug report for someone to have

I also realize not everyone's whims can be considered or satisfied and
don't expect such.
However since the pkgbuild is crafted from the mainline pkgbuild this
trivial change would, imho, make the pkgbuild more flexible. Below is the
section I'm referring to.
# http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/11194
mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr/src/linux-${_kernver}/include/config/dvb/"
cp include/config/dvb/*.h
"${pkgdir}/usr/src/linux-${_kernver}/include/config/dvb/"
I understand the need for this as the main kernel builds the modules but
would like to request one small change.
# http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/11194
mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr/src/linux-${_kernver}/include/config/dvb/"
if [ -a include/config/dvb/*.h ] ; then
cp include/config/dvb/*.h
"${pkgdir}/usr/src/linux-${_kernver}/include/config/dvb/"
fi
This allows one to build the kernel without having to build the dvb modules
if they are not required. My build went fine so I think my bash is correct,
but I haven't tested it with the dvb modules being built.

What about posting it as a comment on the AUR page or as a reply on the
linux-pf forum thread [1] as they seem a better place for that kind of
request?
