Arch Linux User Repository

It seems because nnn can't handle the case of redirected standard input. E.g. nnn /tmp < <(echo foo) shows no entries. ranger even aborts with an error.

aur sync doesn't work anymore with AUR_PAGER=nnn, nothing is displayed after retrieving package files.

3.2.2-1 has bad checksum. Looks like it wasn't updated since 3.2.1

Thanks, I've updated the install file.

Hi! The install file seems to give the wrong path for pacman.conf.

The post_upgrade script spits this out:

As of 3.2.0, if --chroot is specified without --database, aur-build assumes
pacman.conf is located in /etc/pacman-x86_64.conf.

But the release notes on GitHub states this:

If --chroot is specified without --database, aur-build assumes pacman.conf is located in /etc/aurutils/pacman-$(uname -m).conf. 

OK, I think I figured out what I need to do to address this. It seems kind of strange, but...

For context, I have the following lines at the end of /etc/pacman.conf:

# aurto repo
Include = /etc/pacman.d/aurto

Which reference /etc/pacman.d/aurto:

[aurto]
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
Server = file:///var/cache/pacman/aurto

These lines can't be removed, or else I get error: no sync db 'aurto' configured

It seems I need to also add the same content into /etc/aurutils/pacman-aurto.conf after starting it as a copy of /usr/share/devtools/pacman-extra.conf:

# /etc/pacman.conf
#
# See the pacman.conf(5) manpage for option and repository directives

#   - URLs will have $repo replaced by the name of the current repo
#   - URLs will have $arch replaced by the name of the architecture
#
# Repository entries are of the format:

#       Server = ServerName
#       Include = IncludePath
#
# The header [repo-name] is crucial - it must be present and
# uncommented to enable the repo.
#

# The testing repositories are disabled by default. To enable, uncomment the
# repo name header and Include lines. You can add preferred servers immediately
# after the header, and they will be used before the default mirrors.

#[testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[core]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[extra]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

#[community-testing]
#Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

[community]
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

# An example of a custom package repository.  See the pacman manpage for
# tips on creating your own repositories.
#[custom]
#SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
#Server = file:///home/custompkgs
[aurto]
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
Server = file:///var/cache/pacman/aurto

After that, things seem to work.

Starting with aurutils 3.0 you need a seperate pacman configuration in /etc/aurutils/pacman-<repo name>.conf for chroot builds.

https://pkgbuild.com/~alad/aurutils_3.html#mozTocId493532

This is mentioned in the .install file, but apparently I forgot to reference it in the PKGBUILD...

I tried that fix and the problem remains:

% git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/aurutils.git
cd aurutils

Just to be sure, I manually installed the built package too:

% p -U /var/cache/pacman/aurto/aurutils-3.1.2-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

But still:

Anything else I can try?

I guess I haven't installed any new aur packages in a few aurutils releases, because it looks broken for me:

aur sync -c butt
==> Using [custom] repository
  -> butt: (none) -> 0.1.25-1
==> Retrieving package files

 = [up to date]      master     -> origin/master
Running aur chroot --create --pacman-conf /etc/aurutils/pacman-custom.conf
chroot: /etc/aurutils/pacman-custom.conf is not a file

The man page for aur chroot says the default for --pacman-conf is in /usr/share/devtools/pacman-extra.conf. Am I correct in assuming aur sync -c used to use the default? If so, seems like making a copy of /usr/share/devtools/pacman-extra.conf to /etc/aurutils/pacman-custom.conf is the fix. Apologies if I missed some instruction or communication regarding this.
