@jguer I did read the pinned comment before I submitted my comment here, but just like it is inconvenient for you to receive comments here, it was inconvenient for me to submit at issue at the “upstream URL”, so I reckoned it was better to submit it here that to not submit it at all. That was the good intention.
@yochananmarqos Thanks for submitting the issue on Microsoft Github!
@kseistrup: I submitted an issue on GitHub.
@kseistrup please read the pinned comment and report issues with this package via GitHub.
This package no longer (at least from 10.0.0, probably earlier) builds a PIE executable.
Please see https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Go_package_guidelines
@MiniKoala: Just type "yay" as a normal user. Yay will ask for the sudo password, then update all repo packages and all AUR packages, including itself.
@MiniKoala
use your regular user and give sudo permissions as necessary.
yay will run as user and only use root permissions for installation.
Hello, I have a question. I'm new to Arch, I'm from Slackware ^^ this is the first update of an AUR package that I have to execute, I would like to know how should I do it? I read that it is not recommended to use YAY with root, so how to apply updates with yay and what permissions do I have to grant to my user to perform them? Thank you!
@gui_user yes it does. It's just a wrapper for the usual tooling you would use to build packages.
If you for example change the compression in makepkg.conf and you build a package with yay, it will change the compression for them.
I was wondering, does yay respect the settings in /etc/makepkg.conf?

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

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.
