IgnorePkg var / --ignore flag not working as expected. about aura HOT 15 CLOSED

You silly goose, I was just going to open this issue myself. Thanks for the detail, though!

from aura.

The real truth is that --ignore is still only a pacman flag. I have to convert it to a dualFlag and then some of those examples should be fixed.

I am actually worried about ignoring a dep of a dep... Those checks occur for AUR packages, but NOT for pacman packages. I'll just implement --ignore as stated above then see what happens from there.

That's my bug, so here is my GH issue ;p
I updated some user case because of a typo I made.

from aura.

I can get --ignore into this Sunday's release. We'll see how far that fixes things. I'd like to have all this taken care of for 1.1, so I'll add this issue to the milestone.

from aura.

I guess pacman will catch the ignored binary dep of a binary dep itself anyway.
Take your time, I'm not using aura anyway, I'm just curious about its development :)

from aura.

For which I am ever grateful :) Internet high-five.

from aura.

just a friendly reminder that i still can’t mainly use aura because the ignore flag doesn’t work.

aura -Ayu --ignore vessel still tries to update vessel

from aura.

Yeah... I really need to fix this. It's the next thing on the list though! Thanks for bring this up again.

from aura.

The addition of --aurignore in aura 1.1 fixes at least the AUR side of things. Pacman's --ignore still doesn't work probably, but I should be able to extend --aurignore to encompass normal repo packages too.

@flying-sheep and @spyhawk Please confirm.

works, thank you!

Awesome! Thanks for getting back to me.

sure ;)

unrelated issue:

"(color.conf)" (line 47, column 1):
unexpected end of input
expecting space, "#" or valid colour variable name

/etc/pacman.d/color.conf consists of comments and empty lines.

from aura.

I've had this happen. You have to make sure there is only a single newline at the end of the file. Extra lines explodes things. Otherwise, the parser ignores comments and other blank lines appropriately.

from aura.

Is there any reason to use the --aurignore flag? Why not using a simple --ignore flag, and let aura check if the passed packages are from the AUR or from the repo?

from aura.

This will happen eventually, and I'll just alias --auraignore to --ignore. For now, I could only get it to work for aur packages, and I didn't want to hijack pacman's --ignore without having it's functionality available too. For now it's still broken.
