Description:

I've been trying to use archiso, but when it looks the package list complains about various packages providing mktemp(coreutils and selinux-coreutils, the latest one from community), but if you remove the community repository from pacman.conf it complains about being unable to find grub-gfx

Additional info:
* archiso: git repository

Steps to reproduce:

just try to create an iso with the default packages
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  The configuration that comes with archiso is just an example. The configuration could just as well include things that aren't in any of our repos, but in some custom one.
If you want to see the ones used for the install disks, you can find them here: http://code.neotuli.net/gitweb/?p=archis o.git;a=tree;h=refs/heads/ftp-install-co nf;hb=refs/heads/ftp-install-conf

I totally forgot about grub-gfx.

First off: I wanted to move grub-gfx to extra, for this reason.
Secondly: Report these errors to the owners of the community packages.

We may want to install "base" and other packages, instead of explicitly listing as much as we do.

Isn't it because we explicitly list mktemp as well, which since it is now a part of coreutils we do not need it? This doesn't explain why the heck it is needed in community, but...

Note that the configuration that comes with mkarchiso doesn't get regular updates- it is more just an example to follow so you more than likely want to modify it to suit your needs.
