[arch-general] Pacman doesn't optionally require fakeroot
Hi, I have a quick question. Makepkg, which is provided by pacman, doesn't work without fakeroot. Is there a reason why pacman doesnt opdep on it? Cheers, Bennett -- GPG fingerprint: 871F 1047 7DB3 DDED 5FC4 47B2 26C7 E577 EF96 7808

fakeroot is part of core, https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/fakeroot/ .
And it is part of 'base-devel' package group, which is assumed to be installed for those who compile packages in Arch Linux (at least for AUR). Regards, Rafael Fontenelle
