When compiling packages using makeworld or my custom script I
am getting a number of failures like this:
/usr/info/dir exists in both 'glib' and 'gtk'
What causes this?
Is there a way to fix this without forcing this packages?
or better still is there a fix?
Thanks
Hello,
no package should provide that file. As a workaround ,simply
remove it in the PKGBUILD. Proper info file handling is
demonstrated in the file proto-info.install uder
/usr/share/pacman.
Also, info files should be installed under /usr/share/info, not
/usr/info.

I didn't make the PKGBUILD files.
I should not have to remove anything from the PKGBUILD files that
are in extra.
They should just build with makepkg.
Are you saying the arch developers don't know what they are doing?
Hello,
we had the ('!docs') option as default in makepkg.conf in former days,
we have ('docs') now. /usr/share/info and /usr/info belonged to the
directories that were usually stripped away. Now this can be a source
for file conflicts.
Regards Stefan
Ok, I see, I will just add !docs to the makepkg.conf again as the
system I am building this on is an older system from last year.
