Cannot build paru package (conflicts with paru-bin)

[gyscos]

Hi, and thanks for this great project!

It seems that adding paru itself to the list of packages to build results in a build failure.

Here's the build log:
paru_build_log.txt

After a couple of warnings, the error seems to be in the last couple lines:

:: Calculating inner conflicts...

:: Conflicts found:
    paru: paru-bin (paru)  

:: Conflicting packages will have to be confirmed manually
error: can not install conflicting packages with --noconfirm
failed to build packageDocker container wait error: 

Indeed, building paru-bin instead (or other packages) works fine.

For context, I'm running this from a TrueNAS scale system ("custom app" using a docker-compose file).

Hey, the problem here is, that the build containers use paru to build the pkgbuilds (so paru-bin is installed in the container by default) and thats why you cannot install paru too bc. of this conflict.
I'm not sure if there is a way to confirm this in headless modes (without piping yes | paru ... into the command)

Could paru-bin build the package, but not install it possibly?

paru -B path/to/folder/where/pkgbuild/is could be used for that - I believe it will build but not attempt to install the package. It does change the location of the package to retrieve - it would now be in the same folder as the PKGBUILD.

For example:

paru -G $pkg_name
paru -B --noconfirm $pkg_name

The resulting package file is now something like $pkg_name/$pkg_name-$version-$arch.pkg.tar.zst depending on the compression used. Note that there may be others, some PKGBUILD result in several split packages. You might as well gather them all?
