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.

@RidderJoris it looks like the date and time on your armv7 machine is way out of date, which lines up with the error message!

On armv7 I get the following error (after running yay -Syu):

On x86 it doesn't seem to be a problem

@marcin You may have had something installed that had gcc as a dependency, and removed it? You can try grep gcc /var/log/pacman.log to figure it out.

marcin commented on 2021-02-01 00:09 (UTC)

@RubenKelevra I have been using yay on this PC for over 1 years now. Just yesterday I got this error, so I have base-devel installed. Maybe most recent arch update removed it? I don't know.

RubenKelevra commented on 2021-01-31 11:33 (UTC)

@marcin it's user error. All AUR packages expect you to have base-devel installed.

Suddenly started getting the following error:

runtime/cgo
# runtime/cgo
cgo: exec /missing-cc: fork/exec /missing-cc: no such file or directory
make: *** [Makefile:112: yay] Error 2

To solve the issue, installing gcc was enough:

sudo pacman -S gcc

Seems to be breaking all of a sudden in a clean chroot build by CI:

@jguer

Can you please make sudo an optional dependency (optdepends). In the light of the critical vulnerability in sudo some people may want to get rid of sudo on their systems and replace it with some alternatives like su, doas or pkexec.

@mcdragon "DistroTube" is low info click-bait. Disregard it.

jguer commented on 2021-01-26 10:15 (UTC)

@mcdragon

Yay is still maintained and will keep receiving updates (ex: pacman 6 support).

I am more focused on making the interfaces on yay more stable and developer friendly, of testing components to avoid them breaking between fixes, checking for bottlenecks. In terms of feature amount you may want to try Paru, Morganamilo has a lot of experience and wisdom on the subject.

This last year has been atypical which also hasn't allowed me to dedicate as much time as I wanted to yay but expect this maintainability focus (as opposed to feature focus) to last at least until summer.
