AUR Visual Studio Code update fails -- owned by Insomnia

General system Applications

I use AUR with yay, and update fails for VS Code. This is not the first time I get this kind of “owned by” error. Clearing yay cache doesn’t solve it. Why does this happen?

In terms of understanding how you might proceed, can you confirm whether you have insomnia-bin currently installed?

You might also try automatically removing unneeded dependencies, which I expect insomnia-bin-debug would be one of. Then, try again.

yay -Yc

OMG!!

This may happen if you have debugging enabled in your /etc/makepkg.conf

Edit /edit/makepkg.conf, in the line OPTIONS= change debug to !debug

Try clean building the package.
