Confusion between gyp and gyp-git packages #2434

Closed LigH-de closed 1 year ago

LigH-de commented 1 year ago

Suite asks to remove superfluous package gyp; when I agree, it cannot find replacement package gyp-git and restores package gyp.

gyp is the correct package name, see https://packages.msys2.org/base/gyp. Recently, the -git suffixes were removed from packages name to make the installation easier. I am not sure why that kind of back and forth happen but it does not seem to be any fatal issue. Happy compiling 😊

I will try to deny the suggested replacement...

LigH-de commented 1 year ago

Doesn't help.

The file msys64/etc/pac-base.pk contains the entry gyp-git so I guess this one needs to be replaced with gyp but editing that one locally is not possible, it will be restored. Is it an MSYS2 packaging issue?

Oh, it was in the batch file; I only looked in the shell files. Thanks @1480c1
