Arch Linux

Not working with directory that contain spaces.
Example /home/lucas/Some Dir/package-query/

AFAIK, out-of-date doesn't mean the link is down, just that the original developer has released a newer version which hasn't still been updated to Arch. Better, an Arch user has found that a newer version than the one in the AUR has come out, so has flagged the AUR package as "out-of-date". That will warn the package mantainer so that the package will be updated ASAP.

was able to install it flawlessly on armv6h (package was not down)

@krabat

Sorry, I misunderstand the out-of-date flag, the link to this package is down (Not sure at the time I write this comment). The only way now, is by getting the git version.

@krabat: Please be so kind to not edit your comments several times. This reposting with minor corrections generates a lot of unnecessary and even confusing e-mail notifications.

indicates a server problem which seems to happen rather frequently on this server. It has nothing to do with the package being outdated.

I can't see any other reason why it should be out-of-date either. Latest release is still 1.5, see https://github.com/archlinuxfr/package-query/releases.

It has just been built flawlessly here.

@dape: As you can see the package `package-query' is out-of-date, that's why you get a time-out when downloading it. The solution of moormaster or balwierz works by getting the git version:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/package-query-git/

It works for me.

@CPUnltd: you are responsible for rebuilding AUR packages after an soname bump.

just got this today:

package-query: error while loading shared libraries: lialpm.so.8: cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory after updating my desktop. Doesn't affect pacman directly, only package-query.
