After noticing that a number of people like tkPacman, I am giving it a try and shall probably ditch octopi and switch to tkPacman.YMMV. tkPacman released a new version today. PS - As I said in in an earlier post, I have no problem to upgrade ocotpi (under XFCE). But it is just too unwieldy for what it tries to achieve.

Smooth as silk when upgrading with pacaur from 0.8.3-1 to 0.8.3-2 for qt5 on XFCE.

error: unresolvable package conflicts detected error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies) octopi-notifier-frameworks and octopi-notifier-qt4 are in conflict

Some of the packages in this PKGBUILD don't build. Adding this at the end of `prepare` fixed it for me: echo -e "\nQMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11" >> notifier/pacmanhelper/pacmanhelper.pro echo -e "\nQMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11" >> repoeditor/octopi-repoeditor.pro echo -e "\nQMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11" >> cachecleaner/octopi-cachecleaner.pro

Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: KNotifications And I'm using Gnome 3

@philo that works like a charm, so it is a managable situation, just a bit less convenient than it could be.

What about running in Terminal: pacaur -S <AURpackagename>

mk_rego - same problem here

When trying to install a package with octopi via terminal, octopi just states "exiting with error" (or likewise, not using english locale). If I try the same with an aur package via octopi/pacaur, it says "opening terminal", after a few seconds "job done" and nothing actually happens. Anyone experiencing the same? Just installed octopi, pacmanhelper and notifier-framework.
