+
+Searches for a locally built package corresponding to the PKGBUILD, and
+downloads the last version of that package from the Pacman repositories. It
+then compares the list of .so files provided by each version of the package and

+also created using mktemp with files containing a file list for both packages
+and a library list for both packages.
