yay: error while loading shared libraries: libalpm.so.13: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

This will happen if you upgrade pacman and yay separately If you have this error you need to manually recompile yay

pacman -S --needed git base-devel
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/yay.git
cd yay
makepkg -si

I cannot delete the spam comments appearing regularly in this page, which has also led me to disable notifications from here. I remind that the best way to receive support or report a problem is through the Upstream URL.

@titandino may be, you need to replace /etc/resolv.conf with systemd-resolved stub symlink.

ln -sf /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf

Yeah I'm also getting connection refused on the proxy.golang.org package queries when updating. I can download them manually with CURL on the same addresses that are refusing to connect during the update stage too which is odd.

Many golang pkgs cannot be downloaded when makepkg -si. Then yay doesn't work anymore. do: $ sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libalpm.so.15.0.0 /usr/lib/libalpm.so.14 yay works.Beside update itself.

Echoing this from a GitHub PR - Cleanbuild the git repo of yay if you're having problems, it solved the issue for me.

makepkg -Cf && makepkg -si
