Don't add depends=(libfetch.sp libarchive.so) to the pacman PKGBUILD and
it won't be a problem. (Also see #2 below)

sodeps would ensure that pacman updates libfetch and libarchive directly
after openssl.

Which patch version did you read back then? The one you replied to has
all but 1 of those changes. (See below)

1) I'm only waiting for someone to implement the change in pacman (I'm
not good at C), but the makepkg part is already done.

2) The latest patch does exactly that.

I've removed that already.

I actually don't worry about it anymore and the current code works so I
see no need to change it.
