Set errno to 0 at the start of _alpm_open_archive as it is not set when archive_read_open_fd fails. This can result in _alpm_pkg_load_internal thinking errno == ENOENT and setting the wrong pm_errno. e.g. Before:
testpkg pacman-4.0.1-4-i686.pkg.tar.gz.sig error: could not open file pacman-4.0.1-4-i686.pkg.tar.gz.sig: Unrecognized archive format Cannot find the given file.
After:
testpkg pacman-4.0.1-4-i686.pkg.tar.gz.sig error: could not open file pacman-4.0.1-4-i686.pkg.tar.gz.sig: Unrecognized archive format Cannot open the given file.

But hopefully I have described the issue well enough that someone who does know the correct fix can quickly fix it. lib/libalpm/util.c | 1 + 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/libalpm/util.c b/lib/libalpm/util.c index 1128589..5986124 100644 --- a/lib/libalpm/util.c +++ b/lib/libalpm/util.c @@ -227,6 +227,7 @@ int _alpm_open_archive(alpm_handle_t *handle, const char *path, { int fd; size_t bufsize = ALPM_BUFFER_SIZE; + errno = 0; if((*archive = archive_read_new()) == NULL) { RET_ERR(handle, ALPM_ERR_LIBARCHIVE, -1); -- 1.7.9
