I did notice that pacman-key has some trouble with gnupg 2.1. Probably we should support that. Did anybody take a look at it? Not sure what needs to be done, I did not have any time to take care. -- main(a){char*c=/* Schoene Gruesse */"B?IJj;MEH" "CX:;",b;for(a/* Chris get my mail address: */=0;b=c[a++];) putchar(b-1/(/* gcc -o sig sig.c && ./sig */b/42*2-3)*42);}

It seems gpg-2.1 is broken when using --homedir - there is nothing to be done at our end about this: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/42798 There is also this patch needed: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/42762

Cheers for that! So happy to see SRCINFO support finally merged after the first patch surfaced 4 years ago: https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2010-August/011461.html
The remaining bugs that need addressed before a freeze are:
FS#41028 - pacman -Qk should ignore files missing due to NoExtract
This isn't anything new between 4.1 and 4.2. No need to make it release blocking.
FS#37631 - [pacsort] wants to delete the wrong package file when an epoq is added
Ack, this is mine. Will resend (albeit mostly with a TODO in place of the Hard Thing™).
FS#38990 - Clarify IgnorePkg description
This bug is malformed. There's more than just IgnorePkg that we should be "clarifying" in the requested manner.
FS#41531 - pacsysclean is broken
Arguably broken since it was introduced, as it relies on parsing data formatted for humans (not machines). expac in pacman 5.0? I started cleaning up the code last night on an unrelated whim.
FS#41862 - [pacman-git] noextract option in PKGBUILD doesn't symlink file into ${srcdir}
I volunteered myself to look at this, but the few solutions that I hacked together weren't to my satisfication, and I've kind of dropped it since then. Allan, I think this one is on you. dR

Thanks for your work getting architecture dependant fields done - this was the major blocker.
The remaining bugs that need addressed before a freeze are:
FS#41028 - pacman -Qk should ignore files missing due to NoExtract
This isn't anything new between 4.1 and 4.2. No need to make it release blocking.
NoExtract can take globs in pacman-4.2. So setups like: NoExtract = usr/share/locale/* !usr/share/locale/en_AU !usr/share/locale/locale.alias NoExtract = usr/share/man/* !usr/share/man/man* will generate LOTS of warnings. Anyway, I just sent patches :P

Fine.

Yes - not a blocker.
FS#41531 - pacsysclean is broken

That would be awesome!
