Description:
According to libassuan's ChangeLog, the minimum libgpg-error version it supports is now 1.8. There should be a hard dependency on this version in libassuan's PKGBUILD.

Right now, libassuan has been updated to 2.0.1, but libgpg-error is still on 1.7 in extra (version 1.9 is in testing), which means I can't compile anything which uses libassuan/libgpg-error because of missing symbols.
This task depends upon

Yes, everything works fine now. However, my point is just that libassuan's PKGBUILD should have a dependency on 'libgpg-error>=1.8', not simply 'libgpg-error' (and the version dependency should be updated when needed in order to prevent similar problems in the future).

we can argue that versioned dependencies should be removed. versioned dependencies doesn't reflect the values from readme/changelog whatever
