I planned to come to that next ;-) I don't have much of a use-case for
named profiles myself, so I thought it's useful without kanshictl.

Here's my remarks:

devel/aml:

They merged your PR upstreaming your patch - why not use that commit?

COMMENT = Another Main Loop

V =     1.0.0
PKGNAME =       aml-$V
COMMIT =        c5a8bad585e4529a4e178589af30110326bf9df6
DIST_TUPLE =    github any1 aml ${COMMIT} .
...

devel/vali:

I tried using DIST_TUPLE, but the way freedesktop.org names their
tarball contents doesn't make this much nicer:

V =             0.1.1
COMMIT =        bd4b709430eef9a1252198f9a0ea4a05930eda26
DIST_TUPLE =    fdo emersion vali v${V} .
SHARED_LIBS +=  vali    0.0 # 0.0

[...]

WRKDIST =       ${WRKDIR}/vali-v${V}-${COMMIT}

ok volker@ one way or another, diff of wayland/kanshi against the imported
version is attached.
