Description:

The current package version is =1.1.2-1, though the included packer binary reports version =1.0.4.

packer --version
1.0.4

Likewise, the packaged version of packer does clearly not include features included in upstream Packer 1.1.2, such as support for separate sriov_support and ena_support attributes for the amazon-ebs builder.

Please fix the package to be equivalent to upstream Packer features, or set an adquate package version.

Additional info:
* package version(s) packer-io=1.1.2-1

Hello,
Please note that the binary is called `packer-io` not `packer` due to the package conflict with the AUR-packer.
On my system I get the right version back:

`packer-io --version`
1.1.2

So are you sure with this bug report?!

Yes, the issue is still persisting (I'm using a symlink due to company tooling requiring a `packer` binary), but now it shifted to the previous version (1.1.2).

* packer-io=1.1.3-1 (Build date: So 17 Dez 2017 17:45:46 CET)

$ pacman -Qo /usr/bin/packer-io
/usr/bin/packer-io is owned by packer-io 1.1.3-1

$ /usr/bin/packer-io version
Packer v1.1.2

Your version of Packer is out of date! The latest version
is 1.1.3. You can update by downloading from www.packer.io/downloads.html

$ /usr/bin/packer-io --version
1.1.2

For now, I'm now using my own custom packer-io-bin package from the AUR which is just the precompiled upstream binary which reports the correct versions here.

Oh.. I see the problem.
I mixed up the "url" line with the "packer_commit_id" line in my pkgbuild. That's why the last update was wrong. Thanks for the hint!
