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.

If you're getting 'connection refused' errors, similar to @trougnouf, it's likely a DNS resolution issue. 'Go' queries /etc/resolv.conf directly. You may need to create a symbolic link if using iwd or another tool that uses systemd-resolved. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd-resolved#DNS

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

Not sure why building in a clean chroot would help... but it shouldn't be necessary!

I succeded in installing yay by changing 'SigLevel = Required DatabaseOptional' to 'SigLevel = Never'. This has not been a problem before. What should I put in 'SigLevel = ' in order to avoid this problem.

Also, when I start yay, it keeps repeating this question:

:: Synkroniserer pakkedatabaser... core er oppdatert extra 8,1 MiB 1898 KiB/s 00:04 [############################################################################] 100% :: Searching AUR for updates... :: There are 7 providers available for java-runtime: :: Repository extra 1) jdk-openjdk 2) jdk21-openjdk 3) jre-openjdk 4) jre11-openjdk 5) jre17-openjdk 6) jre21-openjdk 7) jre8-openjdk

It does not matter which number I choose, it repeats the question.

I don't have any Java installed at this time, so what is this?

Regarding the libalpm.so.13 problem: When using the git clone method, I am told the package (yay) is missing required signature. This has not been an issue before.

The update isn't working for me:

make: *** [Makefile:114: yay] Error 1
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

edit: I got it working with makechrootpkg per https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=288677

Same architecture, same error meesage, same problem as david_goliath. My CFLAGS variable in /etc/makepkg.conf is set as :

CFLAGS="-march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=neon -O2 -pipe -fstack-protector-strong -fno-plt -fexceptions \
        -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 -Wformat -Werror=format-security \
        -fstack-clash-protection \
        -fno-omit-frame-pointer -mno-omit-leaf-frame-pointer"

Why is the option '-mno-omit-leaf-frame-pointer' unrecognized ?

@david_goliath these flags are set the CFLAGS variable in /etc/makepkg.conf

Building on armv7h fails with the following error

go build -trimpath -mod=readonly -modcacherw  -ldflags '-X "main.yayVersion=12.3.4" -X "main.localePath=/usr/share/locale/" -linkmode=external' -buildmode=pie -o yay
# runtime/cgo
gcc: error: unrecognized command-line option '-mno-omit-leaf-frame-pointer'; did you mean '-fno-omit-frame-pointer'?
make: *** [Makefile:115: yay] Fehler 1

does anybody know where I can configure that command line option?

@baranator: You're missing the prerequisites for using the AUR, this has nothing to do with yay.

I get

==> FEHLER: Cannot find the debugedit binary required for including source files in debug packages.
:: Unable to build yay - makepkg exited with code: 15

Installing debugedit solves this. So debugedit should be a build dependency?
