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

@zeroconf would re-installing python-setuptools fix the issue?

EDIT: might have to remove that empty database directory first, then re-install

Any idea, why querying locally will issue such error? Hopefully can it be fixed. I understand, that file is missing but it is not in my power to fix it.

Querying remotely is fine, also software updating. Folder exists but is empty.

ls /var/lib/pacman/local/|grep python-setuptools
python-setuptools-1:63.4.1-1

ls -a /var/lib/pacman/local/python-setuptools-1:63.4.1-1
.  ..

Other subfolders at /var/lib/pacman/local/ contain desc file.

@hey951753 you can use yay like that if you want. i tend to use yay for aur packages only these days. but when i started with aur helpers years ago i used it for everything. it's a matter of what works best for your workflow

Are pacman wrappers like yay supposed to be used instead of pacman in every operation (e.g. installing packages from official repos, uninsralling packages), or just in AUR operations (installing packages from AUR)?

@saabzero, the question to you should really have been "is your system fully up to date"?

saabzero commented on 2022-08-25 09:28 (UTC)

@callmejoe I have go 2:1.19-1 and gcc 12.2.0-1 installed using pacman

callmejoe commented on 2022-08-25 00:57 (UTC)

@saabzero do you have latest go and gcc versions installed?

Before writing that yay doesn't work and that you are getting:

response decoding failed: invalid character '<' looking for beginning of value
