The problem is from 11f8ce236165bd650515f3141f3dea1ed1fb8baa, where on line 668 an extra -o was added to the test command like there was supposed to be another check there.

[cfeedback]

Just wanted to confirm same problem running Arch 5.4.6 and yes removing the "-o" fixed the issue.

[mboelen]

Made several changes, including fixing that "-o" error. Tested on Tumbleweed and looks to be working now.
