@polygamma OK it seems that the package not upgrading issue was related to pamac keeping previous AUR source / build files in cache in /var/tmp/pamac-build/<user>

It usually causes no problem for upgrading packages, on the contrary it speeds up the process, but in this case, maybe because it was both a new release of the same version and the nx package produces several children, something went wrong in the upgrade.

rm -rf /var/tmp/pamac-build/<user> followed by another upgrade using pamac nailed it.

BTW would you be so kind as to add “aarch64" in the supported architectures list in PKGBUILD, as I need to add it manually everytime for it to compile on my ARM systems ?

Users : Unwilling to provide instructions to reproduce the problem. As usual.

Developpers : « Works4me». As usual.

Unless you are able to provide instructions to reproduce your problem (without using pamac, just with pacman and makepkg), I assume this package is working as intended.

@polygamma It's not about debugging “my” system, I see this issue with the latest nx packages on 4 different machines, 2 x86_64 and 2 aarch64.

Never had this problem with previous nx builds.

Never have this kind of problem with pamac and any other AUR package (and I have dozens of them...)

So I beg to differ and consider this a problem with this precise package, not all my 4 different machines showing the same behaviour with the same package.

(And precisely, the matter is that pacman and pamac both report the installed package is 3.5.99.27-1 even though I see 3.5.99.27-2 being compiled and properly installed. So I bet 3.5.99.27-2 installation wrongly identifies itself as 3.5.99.27-1)
