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

Encountering a similar error to @eimis: when I say yay -Syu, yay says:

Error: Could not find all required packages:
    boost-libs<1.66.0

When I say yay -Ss boost, I see these (descriptions removed):

extra/boost-libs 1.66.0-2 (2.3 MiB 11.0 MiB) (Installed)
extra/boost 1.66.0-2 (11.3 MiB 152.4 MiB) (Installed)

Thanks!

Can't see why is that, if that stuff indeed would get replaced? They'd be most likely just AUR packages, otherwise it'd be a official repo problem and can't see how that'd pass [testing] (don't recall last time I had it in there either).

git-core is ancient and was replaced by git a long time ago, so long ago infact that the git package no longer bothers to say it replaces git-core

You should remove git-core and install git then proceed with the update.

Or you can install yay-git where this has been fixed for a while. The fix should make it into the normal yay very soon.

Also looking at your log please NEVER use --force unless you know exactly what you are doing and especially never use it on a whole sysupgrade otherwise you're going to break your system.

yay says: Error: Could not find all required packages: git-core. And I can't upgrade packages. https://bpaste.net/show/1851079d09ce how can I fix this?

Hi! The patch below adds support for another ARM architecture: armv6h. I built it on my RaspberryPi v1 and it works so far. Feel free to apply it to PKGBUILD :-)

Updated the PKGBUILD to export in the two scopes. Still haven't found a way to make package vendoring easier to use in PKGBUILDs.

I think I found it. At first I tried build it with pacaur and it failed. I tried then manually with makepkg and it worked.

It seems that pacaur discards env variables between prepare and build sections. It means it's better to set them twice like this:

prepare() {
  export GOPATH="${srcdir}/.go"
  export GOBIN="$GOPATH/bin"
  mkdir -p "$GOPATH"
  rm -rf "$GOPATH/src"
  ln -sf "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver/vendor" "$GOPATH/src"
}

build() {
  export GOPATH="${srcdir}/.go"
  export GOBIN="$GOPATH/bin"
  cd "$srcdir/$pkgname-$pkgver"
  go build -v -o ${pkgname} -ldflags "-s -w -X main.version=${pkgver}"
}

Weird, just tried a clean build and it worked. It appears your $GOPATH is not being changed to the temporary one. I'm trying to reproduce it.

Doesn't build after https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=yay&id=c36666539b51 and https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=yay&id=1cec81f1f8e5
