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

Does not build on WSL in Windows if the path contains spaces. The $PWD is then split into multiple strings.

@jachymb: I had the same issue. I replaced gcc-go-9.2.1+20200130-2 by installing go (go-2:1.14-1) from the community repo. Afterwards, yay-package builds like a charm.

Last version build crashed with:

flag provided but not defined: -modcacherw

usage: go build [-o output] [-i] [build flags] [packages]

Run 'go help build' for details.

make: *** [Makefile:49: yay] Error 2

==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

Aborting...

I have encounted same issue.I guess that cause of issue is version of Go at local environment.

I have succeeded to build yay with Go 1.14.

Go 1.14 was released last month and new option(modcacherw) was added for go build command.Please check URL bellow.

I think that yay needs Go1.14 for go build task. Thank you.

@menta thank you for the hint, worked for me!

Specifying -mod=readonly instead of -modcacherw as the first parameter of EXTRA_GOFLAGS has solved the "flag provided but not defined: -modcacherw" error for me.

Yes, with gcc-go 9.2.1+20200130-2 I get: 

go build -v -mod=mod -ldflags '-s -w -linkmode external -extldflags "-Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro,-z,now" -X "main.version=9.4.6"' -modcacherw -gcflags all=-trimpath=/tmp/makepkg/yay/src/yay-9.4.6 -asmflags all=-trimpath=/tmp/makepkg/yay/src/yay-9.4.6 -o yay

Cheers! A final small change would be to change the trimpath flags from $PWD to $srcdir, in order to clean up leftover references to $GOPATH from the binary.
