So yay -S pamac-aur-git won’t work? I didn’t install libalpm12(How to check? Edit: pacman -Q), well not intentionally anyhow lol. Thanks @FredBezies
It should work fine. It worked for me. Some people prefer to call makepkg directly and manually install AUR dependencies while others prefer to use a helper like yay. There is no right or wrong way to do it.
Are you looking at pamac-aur-git because I don’t think that one had those flags.
Either way, you need to add -Denable-flatpak=true to the meson build options line. You also should either add flatpak as a dependency or just make sure you install it first.
If you want flatpak, just use pamac-all or pamac-all-git package which libpamac-full as said in the first post.
I do not think flatpak or snap to be useful on a rolling release distributions, this is why I deactivate both universal package format on pamac-aur-git.
Just updating didn’t work for me either. It aborted complaining that some files already exist (libalpm). So I removed everything pamac related (pamac-aur, pamac-tray-icon-plasma). After this, reinstalling the two packages using yay worked flawlessly.
The “problem” with pamac is that it is developed with the delayed Manjaro update/upgrade schedule in mind. It may be good for Manjaro but for Arch & arch-based distros It has proved to be troublesome quite often.
For anyone who wants a gui standalone “software center” Bauh is (in my opinion) a more solid & troublefree solution.
That being said, my point is that EndeavourOS comes with an outstanding in-built update system, besides the pure, die-hard cli. I really have no other use for any gui update tools other than searching.
KISS & kisses…
I think I won’t ever be able to build pamac on this laptop, my eos install is just a couple of weeks old.
I couldn’t build it with pacman 5 and now still not with 6.
I guess I’ll have to wait for a binary again…
