[SOLVED ]makepkg asking for pacman-color binary

After upgrading pacman to 4.1 I'm getting this error every time I run makepkg:

/usr/bin/makepkg -s -i
==> ERROR: Cannot find the pacman-color binary required for dependency operations.

Even if I try to use --nocolor:

/usr/bin/makepkg --nocolor -s -i
==> ERROR: Cannot find the pacman-color binary required for dependency operations.

I've tried enabling and disabling color options in both makepkg.conf and pacman.conf, and the error is still there.

Any clue on what could be going on and how to solve it?

Thank you in advance

Re: [SOLVED ]makepkg asking for pacman-color binary

Re: [SOLVED ]makepkg asking for pacman-color binary

echo $PACMAN
pacman-color

I guess I've forgotten to edit some file that I changed when using pacman-color-testing from the AUR.

EDIT: Indeed, I forgot to edit my .zprofile that used to export PACMAN as pacman-color. Solved now

Thank you, Allan
