[aur-general] Problem with package installation
Hi everyone, I'm new to the community and I would contribute by adopting coreutils-acp package. I've got problem to install it with 'pacman -U' because of the already existing packages. Is there any trick to avoid this problem ? here is the install log coreutils-acp: /bin/cat exists in filesystem coreutils-acp: /bin/chgrp exists in filesystem coreutils-acp: /bin/chmod exists in filesystem coreutils-acp: /bin/chown exists in filesystem coreutils-acp: /bin/cp exists in filesystem [...] Thank you very much
Sorry for bothering you, i've solved my problem by adding conflicts=('coreutils') provides=('coreutils') in PKGBUILD header. On 03/12/2012 11:38, Adrien RAFFIN wrote:

I suggest you reconsider what this package actually provides. Perhaps only install cp and mv with some prefix (acp, amv?) so that you aren't forced to replace the coreutils package from [core].
This package is currently just a way to patch coreutils with some improvement on cp and mv. I was looking for a patch to coreutils and it hasn't been updated since a while, But like you suggest I would make another package as soon as I've the time. Thank you !
