No.
That’s a very good explanation. Also, other team members had mentioned we shouldn’t even have any AUR helpers in the repos (well, besides Pamac).
Last time I tried pamac it was the cause of Ark failing to open zst files. I hope it doesn’t mess with file associations anymore…
manjaro-kde-settings 20230505-1 causes conflicts due to an existing file:
manjaro-kde-settings: /etc/xdg/konsolerc exists in filesystem (owned by konsole)
Methinks something like this happened just a few weeks ago?
edit: Ah, some work to remedy the problem has already begun:
Fixed with 20230505-2.
One nice thing about yay was, that it practically has the same cli as pacman.
Some major UX glitches make the pamac-cli not really a valid competitor for me.
For example this mind-bending duality of parameters (without an indication of what is the default):
--aur, -a
also search in AUR
--no-aur
do not search in AUR
Also:
- it should install when no command is provided
- it should just search if it doesn’t find stuff when installing
I don’t like this decision. I still want a nice aur-including package-helper. After all, that is the only reason I use an arch-based distro.
