Re: zip help

You don't need to include a version number when installing wink

# pacman -S p7zip

What's sad is the fact that you blame Arch for your mirror not being updated yet. Change your mirror or wait a little bit for the mirrors to get updated, as version 9.13 was just released today.

http://www.archlinux.org/packages/?sort … =&limit=50

EDIT: The mirror I use has it:
http://archlinux.unixheads.org

Also try a:

# pacman -Syy

Re: zip help

Actually, the PKGBUILD is wrong here. It's been written with variables in the depends= array, which causes makepkg to look for a package called "p7zip=9.13" instead of looking for  p7zip version 9.13. Post a comment on its AUR page, so that the maintainer can fix it.

Re: zip help

That should work...  it is just a very strict versioned dependency.
