Arch Linux User Repository

There is a PR pending on the official github repo, until it is merged one can use this PKGBUILD :

pkgname=package-query
pkgver=1.11
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Query ALPM and AUR"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64' 'mips64el' 'armv6h' 'armv7h' 'arm' 'aarch64' 'pentium4')
url="https://github.com/archlinuxfr/package-query/"
license=('GPL')
depends=('pacman>=5.2' 'yajl>=2.0')
source=("git+https://github.com/egormanga/package-query#branch=fix-libalpm13")

build() {
  cd "$srcdir/$pkgname"
  ./autogen.sh
  ./configure --localstatedir=/var --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --with-aur-url=https://aur.archlinux.org
  make
}

package ()
{
  cd "$srcdir/$pkgname"
  make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install
}

# vim:set ts=2 sw=2 et:
md5sums=('SKIP')

Same here.

Just tried fresh clone from github, and makepkg -sicC and I get the

alpm-query.c:397:29: error: too few arguments to function ‘alpm_db_search’
  397 |         alpm_list_t *pkgs = alpm_db_search (db, targets);

error others seem to get.

all 3 aur helpers are broken because of this - yaourt, yay and paru. yaourt and yay come precompiled so no ability to re-link. paru tries to build an alpm unit and fails because of the changes to libalpm/alpm.h. please fix.

I hope it get fixed.

Compiling from source returns an error as many times described. An update with a fix will be amazing and appreciated.

@maderios Once again, update your build system (it's where you are running makepkg) and try to rebuild the package. And read the issue carefully.

@thaewrapt Are you really using Arch? Issue concerns only "yaourt", an old Arch package that doesn't exist no more:

After a recent update, yaourt is broken probably over package-query.
$ yaourt pacman
$ package-query: error while loading shared libraries: libalpm.so.12: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I have an issue with version 1.11 when build it:
