Hello. I’m running an Archlinux installation with testing enabled and today, pacman 6.0.0-2 landed on testing. Pamac-aur-git was removed. I tried to build pamac-aur-git with pacman 6.0 libs, and it doesn’t work. I opened a bug on pamac bug tracker: https://gitlab.manjaro.org/applications/pamac/-/i…

I like to use pamac - specifically pamac-aur-git - and I very much appreciate the work the developer does in maintaining this program. I understand the problems he is having with the new pacman 6.0 and I understand why we do not yet have a compatible version of pamac-aur-git. Obviously I, along wi…

[image] lhb1142: I do have a question to which I have not been able to find the answer: does anyone know what bauh means or stands for? Is it an abbreviation or a word in a language other than English? Just curious … It was originally called fpakman but that caused some confusion and it was …

[image] lhb1142: It’s not a bad program and it certainly works well but it’s not as elegant (solely in my opinion) as pamac-aur-git nor (again in my opinion) is it as easy and/or as convenient to use in finding new programs. I would disagree with these two quibbles. Ok, maybe bauh could use s…

Of all the graphical software managers, bauh is my favorite. That being said, what bauh isn’t great at, is software discovery. For example, if you know you want an application to edit documents but you don’t know what is available, bauh isn’t that helpful in that scenario. On the other hand, I do…

When it comes to software discovery, a good starting place is: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_of_applications I don’t think that is what package managers ought to do.

I would strongly disagree, this is good only when you REALLY know what you’re searching for :laughing: P.S. btw :upside_down_face:
