@storm.continuity, you don't need to worry about it. It's typical to take a bit of time from an upstream to getting an update for any package because testing, home schedules etc.
I wouldn't bother switching away from this package unless there is something in 2.0.1 which is critical to you, looking at the release notes I don't see much of interest other than the autoconf fix which will be welcome for those of us who have downgraded that package.
Please delete this if this is not the right place to ask but: the package has been flagged out of date. Do i have to worry about it or is it "normal"? Should i switch to the git version? Thanks
autoconf 2.70 is now in core.
For anyone else who needs to downgrade, pacman -U https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/a/autoconf/autoconf-2.69-7-any.pkg.tar.zst should do it.
+1 confirm that downgrade to autoconf 2.69 is needed presently for makepkg until zfs autoreconf fix is patched
@Ranguvar Upstream Issue
Just a heads up that autoconf 2.70 in testing breaks the 'autoreconf' in prepare() here.
autoupdate -f does not seem to help, but downgrading to autoconf 2.69 from core works.
pikaur installs/upgrades zfs-dkms without an issue. I use it on several machines.
Thanks. I did build them manually and then install both at the same time using pacman.
You need to install both packages at the same time. I don't think yay can do this, but I did recently discover it is a feature of paru. And of course, you could do it by hand.
Is it not possible to upgrade zfs-dkms with yay? I always end up having to remove dkms-zfs first because of:
loading packages...
resolving dependencies...
looking for conflicting packages...
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing zfs-utils (2.0.0-1) breaks dependency 'zfs-utils=0.8.5' required by zfs-dkms

OpenZFS currently supports Linux kernel versions 4.18 - 6.14, as declared in the META file.
Options if your Linux kernel's version is not within that range:
1) Switch to another Linux kernel, such as
linux-lts.2) Prevent your kernel package from upgrading to an unsupported version until OpenZFS increases the maximum supported kernel version.
3) Modify this package to support your kernel by patching it on your local machine.

If you receive this error when trying to build, it is because you have not imported the GPG keys used for verification.
You have two options:
1) Import the two keys into your keyring. ArchWiki article. You can find the key IDs in the PKGBUILD file, in the
validpgpkeysarray. (recommended)2) Alternatively, you can skip this verification by passing the
--skippgpcheckargument tomakepkgwhen building. (not recommended)
