/lib: exists in filesystem

I'm trying to install a package I built from the AUR (OpenAFS), and I got the strangest error:

What's different here that would cause pacman to throw this error for a directory? I don't understand this at all.
Do I dare use pacman -Af, or will it wipe my kernel modules?

Re: /lib: exists in filesystem

After untarring the package, what's happening is that the package folder contains /lib/modules/2.6.24-ARCH/fs/libafs.ko, but the actial pkg.tar.gz file contains /lib, a binary file. What would cause that change in packaging?

Re: /lib: exists in filesystem

You should inform us about package creation steps.

Re: /lib: exists in filesystem

Not sure but what about pacman -U?

Everything works as expected except the /lib directory tree is turned into a binary file (/lib). I ended up getting it to install by copying .INSTALL and .PKGINFO into the pkg directory and running tar -czf openafs[versioninfo].pkg.tar.gz * .INSTALL .PKGINFO (I have to suffix those two because * doesn't grab hidden files).
I'm pretty sure this is a bug because everything is fine in the pkg directory, but the pkg.tar.gz file is wrong.

Re: /lib: exists in filesystem

Hello, I'm the contributor. I have experienced the very same bug: everything builds perfectly, but the tarball has /lib screwed up. However, other people I asked to test it had no problems with it. I think it's a problem with fakeroot.

Re: /lib: exists in filesystem

use in either makepkg.conf or in your PKGBUILD

options=(!emptydirs)

Re: /lib: exists in filesystem

I added that to the PKGBUILD and it had no effect.

Re: /lib: exists in filesystem

Anybody figure this out?

If I download the PKGBUILD and run makepkg, the /pkg/lib produced is fine, but when I extract the package archive lib is somehow turned into a file.

If I then run makepkg -R, the new archive produced is correct (/lib is present as a directory in the tarball).

Why would makepkg get it right the second time but not the first ???
