Since it only provides a library and not an application, I figured it would be preferable for organization purposes. Was I wrong?

Is there any reason why you called the package libgflags instead of
simply naming it gflags? Than you wouldn't need the _srcname variable...

Yes, this is the standard practice. library-only stuff is usually
prefixed with lib.

The aport looks good with the exception that it installs:
usr/bin/gflags_completions.sh

Either delete it or make it a subpkg with install_if for bash. See tmux
or grep "bash-completion" in the main/*/APKBUILD for examples.

Please resend that fixed, and I'm happy to apply it.

Thanks,
Timo
