I think there is a typo in these arrays:

conflicts=('gnupg2' 'dirmngr')
provides=("gnupg2=${pkgver}" 'dirmngr')

I believe you should omit the number 2 from these. If I keep them as such, my AUR package (gnupg-quiet-sign) fails to install in a dependency hell eith gpgme.

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)

A package will automatically "provide" it's pkgname. The provides and conflicts arrays are referring to old packages. The problem is most likely with your package (can't find it in the AUR, though).

@Scimmia - I added the ARCH package to the provides array and everything worked. This isn't a bug, just ignorance on my part. Thanks for the tip! I uploaded to the AUR now that it works as expected.
