Details

When trying to add a package (http://carebears.mine.nu/~solskogen/temp/openbox-devel.tar.gz) and filled the info like this: http://carebears.mine.nu/~solskogen/temp/aur-fail.png - AUR says something like "Package names do not match."

That leaves a question: What should be the correct apporach when adding a foo-devel package to the repo?
This task depends upon

"Package names do not match" error means that the name you entered on the submit page does not match the pkgname field in your PKGBUILD. It should work if you specify 'openbox-devel' in the submit page, and the pkgname in your PKGBUILD is set to 'openbox-devel'.

It looks like your pkgname is set to just 'openbox'. I'm going to close this (and blissfully assume that it will work after you modify your PKGBUILD). If you still have problems, you can reopen this bug.

Word from Paul Mattal:
Admittedly, the error message for this should be enhanced, especially if it can determine it found another PKGBUILD with the wrong name (which shouldn't be too tough).

It should be a way of adding -devel packages (development versions of a program/application/library), and makepkg dont like it when you add "-devel" to pkgver.

Wait, so I don't understand. Why can't you specify 'openbox-devel' as the name of the package and change the PKGBUILD name to 'openbox-devel' when you upload it?

We don't want to have PKGBUILDs lying around associated with otherly-named packages; it will create immense confusion if I download a PKGBUILD for 'openbox-devel' and the resulting package I build is called 'openbox'.

This is some time ago, but last time i tried I couldnt figure it out. I uploaded a new PKGBUILD of openbox-devel now, and the aur was happy with it. Probably my fault ;-)
