solaar has the following new dependencies: python-yaml, python-xlib python-psutil. Please update the PKGBUILD accordingly.

This package installs the same udev rule in two places, remove the one in /etc.

@yochananmarqos Added the optional dependency, which also bumps the version of the package.

That seems to be an issue with how upstream labeled this release candidate and the previous one: 1.0.2.rc1 vs 1.0.2rc2. One has it as a second dot number, while the other has 2rc2 as a whole. That probably messes with the way pacman parses the version number.

I'm not sure how to handle this without getting rid of the version number and reverting back to the commit number. Since the version number comes from the tag, and the version number is first in the version string, I can't fix this without prepending something to override that version number from upstream.

Hopefully upstream remains consistent and the version number change I just pushed fixes it for a while. I suspect that might break again on the 1.0.2 release, because 1.0.2 will be > 1.0.2.rc2.

I'll add an epoch if this keeps breaking, or update the package version again as new versions gets released upstream.

Could you and an epoch? Yay keeps detecting an update that's a downgrade: 1.0.2rc2.r4.g354c914 -> 1.0.2.rc1.r23.g377c954-1.

You're missing libappindicator-gtk3, see this commit. It could probably just be added to optional dependencies.

The install fix in line 42

# install fix
mv "${pkgdir}/usr/etc" "${pkgdir}/etc"

breaks the installation. It seems that "${pkgdir}/usr/etc" was moved to "${pkgdir}/etc". Removing the line fixes the problem.

Looks like you're missing 'git' as a build dependency:

makedepends=('git')

New git repo is: https://github.com/pwr-Solaar/Solaar

@Max-P: Great :) One small nitpick though ;) You forgot the to reinstate the makedepends var. And if you don't use the _name var you could propably remove it from the PKGBUILD

For those who want to enable users in the plugdev-group to access the unifying receiver (e.g. when you are not using elogind/ systemd):
