anyway, $PATH is configured via /etc/profile (check if you have a default one) then with files in /etc/profile.d/ in append mode (or at least should be in append).
if you have /sbin before there something strange in profile.d or during profile setting at user level: there's something in your .profile or in your shell interpreter .rc? maybe in '~/.config/environment.d/*.conf'?

Reading
/etc/profile
, it appears that it appends/usr/bin
to $PATH, instead of replacing or setting itAZMCode commented on 2022-01-23 00:00 (UTC)
according to the command,
filesystem
The only alternative package manager I use is yay.

@AZMCode no worries, these things happen and you are in good faith. I'm glad you found the source of the problem.
No it's not a change in base, i think.
who was the owner of /sbin (i mean pacman -Qo /sbin)? if it doesn't appear under any package there are two alternatives: you added it (along with the PATH change) and you don't remember it or some alternative package manager like flatpak did the things for you...

That's weird, I haven't manually altered my
$PATH
at all.Perhaps it's a recent change in
base
?I did install arch only recently.
In any case, This is Bug Over, Thank for y'alls support.

@AZMCode:
There's your problem. That is not default.
Apology accepted.
AZMCode commented on 2022-01-22 23:08 (UTC)
This was never a PKGBUILD issue, and I apologize for the inconvenience of spamming the comment section.

@yochananmarqos:
It's been a hectic day for me, so imma settle down and explain the summary of the bug:
In my system, as explained in https://man.archlinux.org/man/file-hierarchy.7.en
/sbin
is a symlink to/usr/bin
, which is where arronax is installed.Furthermore, my
$PATH
contains/sbin
before/usr/bin
, which means that all executables in/usr/bin
are by default executed from/sbin
.Arronax, when executed from
/sbin
, attempts to find itsui
files and other necessary files for its operation starting from/sbin/arronax
, which means that instead of finding/usr/share/arronax
it finds/share/arronax
, which is wrong and causes the program to crash.This is fixed by a tiny patch now posted in the Launchpad bug page (https://bugs.launchpad.net/archlinux/+source/arronax/+bug/1958728) which simply resolves
/sbin/arronax
to/usr/bin/arronax
before attempting to find the required files, which works.yochananmarqos commented on 2022-01-22 22:59 (UTC)
@AZMCode: I don't know what's wrong on your system, but this is neither an upstream nor packaging issue. No one can reproduce it.
AZMCode commented on 2022-01-22 22:57 (UTC)
I've packaged the fix as a git patch and it's attached to the launchpad bug. I guess @max.bra could patch it in the PKGBUILD to all affected versions, but I'm not exactly sure how that sort of stuff works around these parts. Thank you for your patience.
