Hi, I build empty dummy packages to fulfil dependencies related to gvfs and pulseaudio, since I don't need gvfs and pulseaudio and I don't want to suffer from all the issues that gvfs and pulseaudio do cause for my computer usage. Use a high value for epoch and/or pkgver. I for example build with "Version" 2013.08.18-1 in 2013 and since then never run into another issue, other than the need to build an empty dummy package for pulseaudio-bluetooth in 2017, when pulseaudio-bluetooth enforced a dedicated version of pulseaudio, as hard dependency. Non of the software that has got gvfs or pulseaudio as a hard dependency, ever failed for my needs in probably way more than just 8 years. Regards, Ralf
