Hey everybody,
I'm in the situation that one of my packages switched their VCS from SVN to Git. Is it okay to conflict both the non-SVN and the SVN package at the same time?
The package in question is nagstamon-svn, whose upstream made the change to Git. I want to use the following lines in the PKGBUILD:
provides=('nagstamon') conflicts=('nagstamon' 'nagstamon-svn').
Any opinions towards this?
Greetings, Christoph
I'm not sure what exactly you're saying. If nagstamon-svn and nagstamon-git both conflicts=('nagstamon'), P.S. a question I thought of just now. Does listing a package in conflicts automatically add it to provides? I think I've seen/written git packages with only a conflicts, but it satisfies dependencies all the same.
