Error when trying to install, it wants to own /usr/sbin/ ??
conflicting files:
- v4l-utils-git: /usr/sbin already exists in filesystem (owned by filesystem)
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
v4l-utils-git: /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules exists in filesystem (owned by glibc)
They should be fixed now.
I'm also getting the same error:
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
v4l-utils-git: /usr/lib/gconv/gconv-modules exists in filesystem (owned by glibc)
error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)

Can you add edid-decode to the provides and conflicts arrays?:
Sure, done.

edid-decode: moved to v4l-utils, remove all code and update README
This utility was move into v4l-utils (git://linuxtv.org/v4l-utils.git) and so this is the last commit in the edid-decode git repo: remove all files and leave only a README that points to the new git repo.
Regards!

I think it is the result of a change upstream: https://git.linuxtv.org/edid-decode.git/commit/?id=cd4bba870bee3775d2bc811d1089fb3206437176
Can you update the PKGBUILD?
