Netatalk 4.5.0 Install Error

Install script /usr/bin/dconf update failed with exit code 1

I’m trying to install the latest AUR package for Netatalk from the command line and it fails with a permissions error:

Errno 13] Permission denied: '/var/cache/private/pamac/netatalk/src/netatalk-4.5.0/build/meson-private/sanity_check_for_c.exe'.

Is this a problem with the package itself or some sort of permissions error on my end? I would assume it’s the package as the previous versions of Netatalk installed just fine.

Interestingly if I try and update from the Pamac GUI I get this error instead:

Running custom install script '/usr/bin/dconf update'
FAILED: install script '/usr/bin/dconf update' failed with exit code 1.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Mod edit:- Title changed for brevity - the overflow added to the first post as reference. Remedied at no charge.

Not a direct answer to your inquiry — although it might be related after all — but it is currently strongly advised to not install or update anything from the AUR right now, due to an ongoing infestation campaign with malware.

For details, please see the thread below. :backhand_index_pointing_down:

I did actually check a list of known infected packages and this one was not on it. I also ran the check script and I was fine. Still, point taken. Maybe I’ll wait on this.

I’ve been having this issue for the past few weeks. I believe this package predates the malware issue.

What command did you run? Never run pamac with sudo.

I just built both netatalk and it’s AUR dependency bstring in a clean chroot just fine.

Indeed, common source of such issues. :roll_eyes:

@tempest2084
If this is indeed the case, One can check with:

history | grep pamac

Well that solved one problem. I was indeed running sudo pamac update. However just running pamac update still gives me an error:

Mod edit:- Please present all code, commands and command output as pre-formatted text in accordance with forum guidelines. Quickly fixed for you this time (but it still looks ugly). No charge.

Only use quote tags or > for quoted normal text. :eyes:

I’d suggest removing the pamac cache and trying again:

sudo rm -rf /var/cache/private/pamac/*

Still getting the error. :frowning:

Post the full log, please. This time please use proper formatting. Using quotes for file and terminal output are not acceptable and are hard to read.

Please see [HowTo] Post command output and file content as preformatted text

The difference I noticed between our outputs at the point where you encounter the error is that you have this line:

Running custom install script '/usr/bin/dconf update'

While I have this line:

Skipping custom install script because DESTDIR is set '/usr/bin/ldconfig -v'

Although that could be due to your desktop environment. You haven’t mentioned which DE you use, and it isn’t in your profile.

I do believe that dconf is Gnome-related (I run Plasma), so I am a litle hesitant to provide any further advice as I would not want to recommend any action which may mess up your system.

If you could please confirm which desktop environment you are using, then hopefully someone with knowledge of that DE, and dconf specifically, will be able to step in with further advice.

I’m sorry, yes I’m running Gnome.

Please provide your system information. :point_down:


[Mini-HowTo] Provide System Information

Basic details provided by *-fetch type apps might give enough information for someone wishing to buy a computer, however, for Support purposes it’s best to ask your system directly.

Output of the inxi command will generate more useful and detailed information for those who may wish to help:


Suggested inxi command (use either):

inxi -zv8 (short-form)
inxi --filter --verbosity=8 (long-form)

Command output should be presented as pre-formatted text in accordance with forum guidelines. :eyes:


Running inxi within a chroot environment

  • Add --color=0 to the long-form command, or…
  • Change the short-form command to inxi -zv8c0

Your privacy is respected


Sorry for the late reply, here’s the output of inxi:

There’s a new comment on the package page, so hopefully they’re aware of the issue now and will fix it.
Mod edit: added link to the AUR page comment

It seems that if dconf is already installed on the build system, package() fails with:

Running custom install script '/usr/bin/dconf update'
warning: Failed to open '/etc/dconf/db/ibus': for replacement: Permission denied
/etc/dconf/db/ibus.d: Failed to create file “/etc/dconf/db/ibus.U660Q3”: Permission denied
error: failed to update at least one of the databases
FAILED: install script '/usr/bin/dconf update' failed with exit code 1.

probably because the meson install assumes it’s installing directly into the system and not for packaging. Meson shouldn’t be running such post-install scripts in this situation and leave dconf update to pacman’s hooks.

Looks like the latest package fixed the issue.
