Maybe this can (easily?) solve the issue that -lts kernels are always detected as outdated

Seems the default installation does not include the man page in repo. Debian packages ship with it, maybe we should too.

Apply this patch would add the man page to the $pkgdir:

diff --git a/PKGBUILD b/PKGBUILD
index 906e11275d8f..5a3af6d0187f 100644
--- a/PKGBUILD
+++ b/PKGBUILD

@meadow It does in fact.

See how to configure it in my last comment there -> https://github.com/liske/needrestart/issues/281#issuecomment-2022954886

It didn't actually need a rebuild, though...

@tamirzb: New perl version/module rebuild.

What is the difference between 3.6-2 and 3.6-3?

t-8ch commented on 2023-07-25 17:36 (UTC)

It should work from that directory. Look at "man alpm-hooks".

@t-8ch Thank you! I have to admit I didn't know about that folder. Is one supposed to copy over hooks that are located there to /etc/pacman.d/hooks? Or are these hooks already being executed when using pacman? Thank you in advance.

t-8ch commented on 2023-07-25 17:20 (UTC)

@Zenzio it is installed to /usr/share/libalpm/hooks
