@eschwartz: I'm using this package because of the new parallel downloads feature (which works very well!). However, I wonder, since pacman 5.2.2 has been available since 2020-07-14, if a new pacman-git version shouldn't be available as well. Or are the changes in 5.2.2 already included in this pacman-git version?

eschwartz commented on 2020-03-15 01:15 (UTC)

What is the purpose of providing libalpm.so? The purpose of providing pacman seems to be fairly evident, since anything that uses pacman depend on pacman. On the other hand, nothing in the official repos depends on libalpm.so (and I don't believe anything other than yay-git depends on it) -- what's the objective here?

And if it did provide libalpm.so, it wouldn't help you since this is the git version which means any ABI-breaking changes won't bump the soname until release time, thus, depending on a soname version achieves precisely nothing.

@eschwartz The official pacman from core provides libalpm.so (see https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/pacman ) so it would be better to change it to that combined with provides=("pacman=${pkgver%.*.*}").

Why does pacman-git doesn't provide pacman 5.2

But it does, because

$ pacman -Qi pacman-git
[...]
Provides        : pacman=5.2.0

yay-git still fails because of libalpm.so line

So, 'libalpm.so' doesn't look like 'pacman' to me.

I'm unsure why it was added to the yay-git package, and I'll tell you right now that using sonames won't work the way AUR package maintainers expect -- the result will simply be that you cannot upgrade pacman until you uninstall yay, then pacman -Syu, then rebuild and reinstall yay. Using sonames makes it harder, not easier, to use the AUR.

(There is exactly one AUR helper where it helps, and that is aurutils which can rebuild yay-git without first uninstalling it in order to upgrade pacman.)

@rafaelff Thanks, pacman --version shows Pacman v5.2.0-6-gf37a - libalpm v12.0.0 and yay-git still fails because of libalpm.so line, maybe I should report it there. Editing yay-git PKGBUILD locally fixed it for me.

@hugegameartgd: That version is exactly what is in the PKGBUILD, but this is a VCS package so its version gets updated when building the package. Even if the pkgver doesn't show 5.2.0, it is updated with the pacman master branch. So it does provide latest state of this repository.

Regarding the error about libalpm, removing 'pacman' to install 'pacman-git' breaks the AUR helper dependency. Please build pacman-git without an AUR helper, as they depends on pacman. Follow https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Installing_packages

LinuxUserGD commented on 2019-10-29 18:41 (UTC)

yay shows version 5.1.1

[user@archlinux ~]$ yay -S --devel --timeupdate pacman-git

and later when trying to replace pacman with pacman-git

It does, check again.

LinuxUserGD commented on 2019-10-29 17:40 (UTC)

Why does pacman-git doesn't provide pacman 5.2? It's already in the main repo.
