+# AUR Package Submission for scidCommunity
+
+This directory contains the PKGBUILD and related files for submitting scidCommunity to the Arch User Repository (AUR).
+
+## Files
+
+- **PKGBUILD** — The main build recipe for Arch Linux
+
+## Steps to Test and Submit
+
+### 1. Test the Build in Arch Distrobox
+
+First, verify the PKGBUILD works correctly in Arch:
+
+```bash
+distrobox enter Arch
+cd /path/to/scidCommunity/aur
+makepkg -si
+```
+
+This will:
+- Download the source
+- Extract it
+- Run `./configure` and `make all`
+- Install to system
+
+### 2. Identify Correct Arch Tcl/Tk Package Names
+
+Once in the Arch distrobox, check the actual package names:
+
+```bash
+pacman -Ss tcl
+pacman -Ss tk
+```
+
+Update the `depends=()` and `makedepends=()` arrays in PKGBUILD if needed.
+
+### 3. Fix sha256sum
+
+The PKGBUILD currently has `sha256sums=('SKIP')`. To get the real hash:
+
+```bash
+cd /path/to/scidCommunity/aur
+wget https://github.com/whelanh/scidCommunity/archive/cee3cc8b96b1476e44547c130e9316de47e9810b.tar.gz
+sha256sum cee3cc8b96b1476e44547c130e9316de47e9810b.tar.gz
+```
+
+Replace the 'SKIP' in PKGBUILD with the actual hash.
+
+### 4. Validate PKGBUILD Syntax
+
+```bash
+cd /path/to/scidCommunity/aur
+namcap PKGBUILD
+namcap -i <pkgname>-<pkgver>-<pkgrel>-<arch>.pkg.tar.zst
+```
+
+(Install `namcap` if needed: `pacman -S namcap`)
+
+### 5. Create AUR Git Repository
+
+Once testing passes:
+
+1. Go to https://aur.archlinux.org/
+2. Login with your Arch Linux account
+3. Click "Submit a Package"
+4. Provide:
+   - **Package name**: `scidcommunity`
+   - **Initial PKGBUILD submission** or initialize with git
+
+### 6. Submit via Git (After Initial Upload)
+
+```bash
+git clone ssh://aur@aur.archlinux.org/scidcommunity.git
+cd scidcommunity
+cp /path/to/scidCommunity/aur/PKGBUILD .
+git add PKGBUILD
+git commit -m "Initial commit: scidcommunity 5.1.1"
+git push
+```
+
+## Next Steps
+
+For future updates:
+0. Manually update line 11 in PKGBUILD with the new commit hash from the parent
+1. Update the PKGBUILD (change pkgver or pkgrel)
+2. Regenerate .SRCINFO: distrobox enter Arch -- bash -c "cd /home/hugh/Downloads/scidCommunity/aur && makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO"
+3. Commit and push: git commit -am "Update to version X.Y.Z" && git push
