Failed to Install AUR Helper about larbs HOT 4 CLOSED

Does #553 fix it?

The problem for me was that makepkg was complaining that it didn't work because of -D $repodir/$1", so I just removed that section in the manualinstall function, which fixed it. The user is already in the right directory at that point so that section shouldn't even be necessary anyway.

Well, seeing as the person who raised this issue hasn't responded, I'm going to address it myself. I've encountered the very same problem, and it was resolved following the application of the pull request you highlighted. However, despite these adjustments, the hints persist during the build process. Apart from these persistent hints, everything else appears to function correctly.

Removing -D $repodir/$1" fixed it, just to update. Installation went smoothly afterwards.

Well, I reckon you could pop up a pull request with that patch to give everyone a hand, and then maybe knock off the issue once it's sorted.
