Details

When running makepkg with the -s switch, it does not go very well with versioned dependencies.
When I add a dependency on let's say gconf>=2.8.1, makepkg installs gconf-2.8.0.1-1 using pacman and then goes building.

When I start makepkg without -s switch and having gconf-2.8.0.1-1 installed, makepkg will fail on the dependency as expected.
This task depends upon

Yes, makepkg has never handled version comparators, only package names.

This is on the todo list, though.

Does this still happen? Requires testing with makepkg 3.

Going to defer this until 3.1, as it's a rather rare case that this happens in.

This appears to work fine in the newest incarnation of makepkg.

Jan?

I haven't checked explicitly but makepkg uses pacman -T and in the function pacman_deptest (src/pacman/deptest.c), line 56 does the version testing [ if(pkg && alpm_depcmp(pkg, dep)) ] so I'd say this is fixed.

Dan I think this can be closed, can you just verify that I'm not crazy here 8)
