[arch-general] ofono install
Hello, I tried to install ofono from AUR, because I want HSP/HFP support for pulseaudio (https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/PulseAudio/Documentation/User/Modu...), but I get an error about a conflict between .SRCINFO and PKGBUILD - how can I resolve this problem? Kind regards Peter
I get an error about a conflict between .SRCINFO and PKGBUILD - how can I resolve this problem?
I'm not getting that error, have you tried cloning a fresh copy from AUR? Regardless, you don't need to care about .SRCINFO unless you're the maintainer. Just delete it. Max

That sounds like you are using an AUR helper that compares the contents of the PKGBUILD to the .SRCINFO file that provides the display data for the AUR entry. The ofono maintainer only updated the PKGBUILD to 1.19 forgot to regenerate the SRCINFO (it still shows 1.18). In this case you should build the package manually using makepkg and at most a simple download helper like cower. -- Andreas

I looked into these two files - version of .SRCINFO is 1.18, while in PKGBUILD it is 1.19. Seems as if You have the "original" 1.18 build, which is not updated because of unchanged .SRCINFO, so no conflicts. As I'm installing the updated package, PKGBUILD loads version 1.19 of ofono, which conflicts with .SRCINFO. Peter

I'm using pacaur, as it seems to be the easiest way to install AUR packages. Peter

And pacaur notices that the maintainer did something wrong, panics, and aborts on you. pacaur actually uses the metadata from the .SRCINFO to track what exists where, and packages which violate that expectation confuse its parser. It is entirely possible the built package exists in the cache somewhere. -- Eli Schwartz

In the meantime, I've managed to use makepkg --noextract --install on the cached files after editing .SRCINFO to reflect the correct version id. So I've got a running oFono 1.19 installation now, which will not be upgraded before oFono 1.20 is out. Regards P.

Others already pointed out that you don't need this file to build a package at all, apart from this you don't need to edit this file, simply generate one: "makepkg --printsrcinfo > .SRCINFO" - https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/.SRCINFO

Thank You - I'll use that next time. Just wanted to have the correct version info when using pacaur next time. P.
