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.

Why is this flagged out of date?

@psltn : Yes that's right, I suggested it because I somehow didn't have the base-devel package installed on my raspberry pi, but I in fact only needed fakeroot to build yay, so adding it would save a few minutes ;)

As you wish

@f1she3: No need to. Read the "Note" here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites

Hi !

I think that fakeroot (https://www.archlinux.org/packages/core/x86_64/fakeroot/) should be added as a dependency, am I wrong ?

looking for conflicting packages... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: installing pacman (5.2.0-2) breaks dependency 'pacman<=5.1.3' required by yay

@gdude2002 you sure your pacman cache was not symlinked? I have only seen this in those cases. The only other reason for that to happen is for pacman to be set as a dependency instead of an explicit, which yay does not do.

@jguer Just to let you know that trying to do that (install yay-bin then update as normal with pacman) ended up actually removing pacman from my system for some reason - luckily the dependencies were still there so I could manually copy the files in from a manually downloaded copy from the package repos, and now everything is fine.

if one does not like binary packages, copied from https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/dlpng7/cant_pacman_syu_because_of_yay/ 

yay -G yay #clones new yay from git
yay -R yay #removes old yay
sudo pacman -Syu
cd yay/
makepkg -si #install the yay you cloned

Is anyone else getting problems with the diff functionality in 9.4.2? When upgrading a package, the diff behaves as if every version is an initial commit, e.g.:

diff --git /home/dgmulf/build/aur/st/PKGBUILD /home/dgmulf/build/aur/st/PKGBUILD
new file mode 100644
index 0000000..7ad8f2e
--- /dev/null
+++ /home/dgmulf/build/aur/st/PKGBUILD
[...]
