Hello everyone,
I wanted to create my own modifications of the name of my system and make permanent changes for the following files:
os-release
issue
lsb_release
Adding a /src folder
I've already clone the default filesystem package by using pkgctl, made some modifications.
The problem is: when I want to install on my system, it conflicts with the arch filesystem package (this is obviously logic), and I can't replace it without breaking my installation.
For those who've already made his own filesystem package, what is the good method to replace the default filesystem package by a custom one?

Why are you doing this? Also you should make your filesystem package provides=(...) and replaces=(...) the filesystem package or if you just want to have it locally just keep using the name "filesystem".

I just love customizing my system from top to bottom of all parts.

If I understand correctly, I should add "filesystem" in provides=("filesystem") and replaces=("filesystem") in my filesystem-custom PKGBUILD package to ensure it properly replaces the arch filesystem package. Is that what you're suggesting?

Yes or just keep the name as "filesystem" so that the arch one is automatically overwritten ...

After adding provides=("filesystem") and replaces=("filesystem"), it worked like a charm, thank you for the clarification!
