Hi all,

what is the common practice when facing a PKGBUILD update that does not change the final binary package nor the dependency tree (let's say, a type in an "echo" message or a wrong # Contributor: line)? Do I have to increment the pkgrel value anyway?

This is the guilty PKGBUILD: it is pretty straightforward but... just in case I have made some other stupid mistake.

Thanks in advance. -- Nicola

In order for it to be updated in AUR, you need to at least increment the PKGBUILD's pkgrel by one. Otherwise it won't update it.
