There's no need to build something from AUR. [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ grep pkgver /var/abs/core/linux/PKGBUILD | head -1 pkgver=4.10.8 [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ grep pkgrel /var/abs/core/linux/PKGBUILD | head -1 pkgrel=1 [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ pacman -Si linux | grep Version Version : 4.10.8-1 Again, I'm not against asp, but why not simply installing ABS from extra at the moment, instead of asp from AUR? I don't get your point. Why do you make such a big off-topic discussion out of it?
