pak -S mp3info ogginfo #44

Open kingcons opened 13 years ago

kingcons commented 13 years ago

mp3info was installed, then: ==> The value "An MP3 technical info viewer and ID3 1.x tag editor" is not of type LIST.

Please choose how you want to proceed: 0: [SKIP-PACKAGE ] Skip installation of package "ogginfo" and continue ...

A few thoughts: First of all it turns out ogginfo isn't packaged so it should just inform that it couldn't find ogginfo anywhere. Second of all somehow it's displaying the description of mp3info as something that's being passed around in the ogginfo process. Finally we just mapcar pak -S arguments. It might be worth just passing argv to a install-packages function which checks if they all exist, informs the user otherwise and passes the binary pkgs to pacman before fetching the rest from AUR.

This appears to be fixed in master but I don't know when. Disconcerting. Desperately need to write a test suite before next release.
