paru still attempting to install (unneeded) dependency even though its in IgnorePkg

[Fxzzi]

Affected Version

paru v2.0.4 - libalpm v15.0.0

Description

Using hyprland-git package from the AUR also includes the package hyprland-qtutils-git as a dependency. This dependency is not needed although from packager maintainer standpoint it is being kept (which is fair)

However I would personally like to stop the building and installing of this package. Adding it to IgnorePkg doesn't seem to do it, upgrading hyprland-git seems to install it again

Output

paru.conf

Include = /etc/paru.conf

There's an issue with ignorepkg not being respected cross dependencies. Though If it was working as intended you would get an error telling you the dependency can't be found it wouldn't just install without the dep.

AUR deps are resolved via a REST API and are not read from the pkgbuild so editing it has no effect. The easiest solution is to just make a dummy package that provides the needed dependency.
