yay: error while loading shared libraries: libalpm.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

all v12.5.7 binaries are compiled against pacman's 7.1 libalpm.

If you updated pacman separately from yay you'll need to run either of these (yay or yay-bin)

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

or

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

Now that yay can be scriptet with Lua, wouldn't it be appropriate to include the example doc/init.lua in /usr/share/doc/yay/?

See e.g.:

@EpicTux123: Not necessary. yay-bin already provides and conflicts with yay. See Package relations.

Hey, I believe you should add conflicts and provides "yay-bin" for this pkg as well. Or at least only the conflicts one. Thanks.

/bin/sh: line 1: uv: command not found
make: *** [Makefile:787: pyosys/wrappers.cc] Error 127

had to add uv to makedepends.

@muziknavi base-devel is assumed installed when using the AUR. It should not be explicitly listed as a dependency.

See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites & https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#makedepends

Can we add base-devel as a dep ?

aur needs this.

for anyone else having issues with tab completion

delete ~/.cache/yay/completion.cache running yay -Pcc should regenerate the file correctly

There is a bug with compiling on non-x86_64 arch with yay 12.5.7. Use yay-git instead until next version is released: https://github.com/Jguer/yay/issues/2756
