Hi,
since the “upgrade” to version 10, pamac doesn’t support AUR properly anymore. I’ve been hoping for a fix for months now, but nothing happened. Can I do something to fix it or do I have to keep on waiting?
The issues:
- there is no diff anymore for the build files
edit: both following issues can be circumvented at least for the “normal” AUR packages by deactivating “Check for development packages updates” - that is no solution for the development packages themselves though.
-
checking for upgrades takes ages (maybe https://gitlab.manjaro.org/applications/pamac/-/issues/910)
-
it is not possible to upgrade a single AUR package:
- “Ignore All” deselect all AUR upgrades (I am not talking about partial OS upgrades)
- select one AUR package for upgrading
- apply the upgrade, confirm transaction summary - “Failed to prepare transaction”. Pamac terminal output indicates that pamac wants the sources for all packages before upgrading one package, so the upgrade fails
Oddly enough, upgrading a single package worked after deactivating “Check for development package updates”, this also increases the speed of checking for upgrades, but since I need a development package update, it’s not the solution.
Using yay in the meantime is not ideal since it ignores edits to the PKGBUILD.
