Given the current circumstances (with the AUR being "READ-ONLY"), I allowed myself to use admin-powers to drop the obsolete patch and allow the package to build again.

Allowing myself to add falconindy as a co-maintainer. The package has failed to build since 2 years at that point (as falconindy reported in the previous comment), and they offered to pick it up (falconindy is the original submitter and upstream developer of the project, for what it's worth).

@eclairvoyant, if you're not interested in maintaining this package anymore, please consider disowning it (so falconindy gets promoted as the maintainer).
Thanks in advance :)

The patch is no longer needed, I've committed https://github.com/falconindy/pkgfile/commit/6c618bb1d8d3f5882bd267e154a78a5458cdec37

Still, the 's/-[^-]*$//' is cutting off the '.ge66d942' suffix, which is the whole point of a Git version.

Wouldn't something like: git describe --long | sed 's/^v//;s/-/./g' be a more suitable Git version (12.0.g9bec39d)?

Here's the cron script that can be used. Can it be put in the package, possi bly `/usr/share/doc/pkgfile/cron.dail/pkgfile`? https://gist.github.com/1515fc22a531e4c1ef18

DB format has changed -- if you're upgrading and pull in a v5 tag, you'll need to force update your DBs to get accurate results.

My bad. Thanks falcon, that did the trick.

The manpage would tell you to source it from your shell initialization files -- ~/.bashrc, or ~/.zshrc

Thanks for fixing this falconindy. I noticed /usr/share/doc/pkgfile/command-not-found.bash which provides output if the command isn't found. How do I use it?
