If you want to use tkPacman with Konsole as virtual terminal, you will have to change the tkPacman option "terminal" from
konsole -nofork -p tabtitle=%t -e %c
to
konsole --title %t -e %c
If I have to update tkPacman for some reason, I will also correct the command template for Konsole.

@marvin Thank you for notifying me. I don't know yet what I can do about it. As far as I can see now, it is only "optimize pacman database" that does not work anymore.

According to https://bbs.archlinux.de/viewtopic.php?id=31604 the new pacman 5.1 doesn't contain all tools as its predecessor.

A new package pacman-contrib now exists (content of it in post #6 of aboves link).

tkpacman seems to no longer optimize the database. Other commands used in tkpacman might be affacted too.

Retry and ok :-) thanks.

@simona That happens sometimes when there is a problem with the sourceforge.net website.

I have just successfully downloaded and built the tkpacman package. So, I think that you can retry to build the package. If the problem you had persists, please report back to me.

==> Validazione di source file con md5sums... tkpacman-1.8.0.tar.gz ... NON RIUSCITO

@philo vte used to be in the "extra" repository, but has now been replaced by vte3. I will update the package accordingly. But I also need to test tkPacman with vte3 first.

'vte' itself is no longer in repos but the two 'vte' packages in the 'extra' repository seem to do he job.

Version 1.8.0-3 has been uploaded to the AUR.

The sources are downloaded from sourceforge.net again.

So, in fact, version 1.8.0-3 is identical to 1.8.0-1.

Version 1.8.0-2 has been uploaded to the AUR.

The only difference with respect to version 1.8.0-1 is that the source tar-ball is no longer downloaded from sourceforge but has been stored in the AUR.

That is only a temporary solution. It allows users to build the AUR package and gives me some time to look for a permanent solution to the sourceforge problem.

There's nothing really preventing you, though if the package would be added to community at some point (tkpacman has more than enough votes) having the source code hosted on AUR would not be too convenient...

The issues with sourceforge have going on for a while, I'm not sure when it will be resolved:
