Thanks for the timely and detailed response @HalosGhost. I'll test it out with another package manager and see if the issue still shows up (any particular one you recommend?). Also, Kudos on getting to the 1.0 release ;)

@dcaixinha,

Because this package builds from git master, if there have been new commits, it will build a new package (the latest at the moment being r31 because I haven't gotten around to sewing up the last few features; hopefully soon :P).

However, if building the package does not update the pkgver variable, then that is a bug in your AUR helper (presumably, that is yay in this circumstance). If you look at the PKGBUILD itself, you can see the pkgver() function which is used to update the pkgver variable on each build.

It sounds like it might be worth looking into the issue tracker for yay and seeing if anyone else is experiencing this problem.

Additionally, I am rapidly coming up on releasing 1.0 of enlighten, so there will Soon™ be a non-git package that you could use instead.

All the best,

I think something's wrong with this package. It's always trying to install version 0-2, but then installs version enlighten-git-v0.9.r31.g6629893-1, resulting in the system thinking it always needs to update this package (e.g. when using yay). Can somebody confirm this please?

mustaqim,

you are right! It is a make-dep. I will fix that tonight. Thank you for the comment :)

All the best,

rm: cannot remove 'doctree': No such file or directory
make: *** [Makefile:26: doc] Error 1
