[Solved] cannot open package file

Hi All,

I tried to install deluge with yaourt but I got this message "cannot open package file". I then built it from AUR and got this:
[root@cwa a]# pacman -U deluge-svn-5088-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
loading package data...
error: 'deluge-svn-5088-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz': cannot open package file

Does anyone have a clue for me. I have built other programs with no problem using yaourt.

Thanks,
Arthur

Hi,

Here is the output:

[root@cwa deluge-svn]# file deluge-svn-5088-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz
deluge-svn-5088-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, from Unix, last modified: Sat Apr 18 13:48:55 2009

Thanks,

Re: [Solved] cannot open package file

What is the version number in AUR? I guess yaourt is not capable for svn-versions and makepkg's "automagically change version numbers of svn-packages"-feature. It tries to open another file. Please try to build without using yaourt.
