Hello.

I don't have any powers to post on arch-dev-public, so I'm writing here.

Since I upgraded to pacman 4.0 (and building tools related to pacman 4.0), some packages which have both an install file and a name like something-git won't build.

For example, if I try to build vlc-git, https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16084, I cannot get it build until I comment install=() line :

[fred@fredo-arch vlc-git]$ makepkg ==> ERROR : install file (('vlc-git.install')) doesn't exist

But a little ls tells me :

[fred@fredo-arch vlc-git]$ ls PKGBUILD vlc-git.install

Known bug ?

install file line in this package :

install=('vlc-git.install')

I can see the same for a package I try to maintain, kvm-git : https://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=22041

Any ideas ?

The install directive shouldn't be an array. So replace install=('vlc-git.install') by install='vlc-git.install'
