Details

Summary and Info:

I ran into this following the instructions on https://archlinux.fr/yaourt-en
even with
https://github.com/elieux/pacman/commit/23f128ad5e2b

Reason and correction:

I debugged into this and found that "$(declare -p $i)" expands to "declare -ax arch=...".
So a possible solution is to remove the blank after "-a"

Instead of
if [[ "$(declare -p $i)" != "declare -a "* ]]; then
do
if [[ "$(declare -p $i)" != "declare -a"* ]]; then

This task depends upon
