[arch-general] '*' in PKGBUILD for the conflicts array
Hello, since there starts a new splitting game with the kde/kdemod packages i have a question for own packages. Would it be possible to use this conflicts=("kdebase-*") if i want to use a variation of the kdebase package which includes all. I know that than i have to fill up the provides array with the full names if this is necessary. Comment: Thanks for the pacman support of splitting PKGBUILDs. See you, Attila

No, that will not work. Allan

Perhaps in the future? If not, no problem and i don't want to force you to say me a release date.-) See you, Attila

You'd have to talk to the pacman guys. I suggest you file a feature request or email the pacman-dev list

I just replied in the bug report but for those that are interested.... something like: conflicts=("kdebase-*") may be achieved using conflicts=$(pacman -Ssq kdebase-) I would not recommend the general use of that.... Allan

As i said in the bugreport this is a fantastic solution.

Me too ... but for own packages with own risk it is enough.-) Thanks again, Attila

conflicts=($(pacman -Ssq kdebase-)) If "conflicts" is supposed to be an array. clemens
