Yesterday I was quite surprised. I wanted to install a tool which allows to edit user settings graphically. The tool I used to use (kuser) is only provided in an old version which would force to compile a lot of qt stuff (qt4), which I would love to avoid.
yay -Ss kuser
aur/kuserfeedback-git r704.83982f1-1 (+0 0.00)
Framework for collecting user feedback for applications via telemetry and surveys
aur/mediawiki-extension-checkuser REL1_35+r2915+g12645d72-1 (+0 0.00)
An extension for MediaWiki that allows a user to check which IPs are used by a given username and which usernames are used by a given IP
aur/bukuserver 4.3-1 (+1 0.00) (Orphaned) (Out-of-date: 2020-08-11)
Powerful command-line bookmark manager. CLI and server.
aur/kuser-frameworks 16.08.3-1 (+9 0.00)
User Manager
extra/kuserfeedback 1.0.0-1 (479.5 KiB 2.5 MiB) (Installed)
Framework for collecting user feedback for applications via telemetry and surveys
The second alternative (user-manager
) can’t even be downloaded from AUR.

Does somebody have a suggestion which tool could be used. Unluckily yast
does not exist in Arch repositories. (Scnr)
I know that this could be done using a terminal, but since I’m using Linux I “insist” on having choices.
