Description:

I'm in the situation, that I want to have pkgfile track multiple architectures in parallel on the same host.
It's no problem to configure the different sources via providing crafted pacman.conf files, but the cache directories clash between architectures.
E.g. there is no option to change /var/cache/pkgfile on a per-configuration-file or per-run basis.

regards,
deep42thought

P.S.: I'm needing this for archlinux32 to track the i686 and the i486 branch.
This task depends upon

Seems reasonable. Implemented in https://github.com/falconindy/pkgfile/commit/0ac30693295259dd816f26f0ea0761d934a4053b.

thank you for the fast reply. I just compiled pkgfile-git and it works like a charm :-)
