[solved] subversion and apr-util-iodbc from aur

Hi,
apr-util-iodbc from AUR http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27040
provides apr-util but subversion still says it needs apr-util. It seems ignoring provides directive.

jithine ~  $  yaourt -Qi subversion

If I edit the package name and give apr-util then it will work as expected.
The PKGBUID has this entry provides=('apr-util'). the installed package also says so. But pacman seems to ignore provides apr-util directive.

apr-util-iodbc should have a versioned "provides" in its PKGBUILD, as stated in the comments on AUR. It also needs "conflicts=('apr-util'), instead of "replaces"; no AUR PKGBUILD should ever use "replaces" anyway.

Thanks. I figured it out the provides did not have version number in the PKGBUILD. Once I added that subversion is no longer complaining. I will ask the package maintainer to not use replaces.
