Libpdfium-nojs: local (6613.r0.66c80ddf43-1) is newer than AUR (6367.r1.7b90b15a21-1)

[vogle]

I get this in my terminal, local is newer than AUR. Not sure how to fix, can’t find anything on net. tx

My solution is usually to remove package and install it again.

Thiis just means that libpdfium-nojs is installed using a repo that is “lower in the list” than the “first/main repo”.

This can happen in a few scenarios:

• You installed a package from source using something like GIT
• You installed a package from another distro’s repo
• You installed a package from the AUR that has a newer version that what is available in your standard repo

If it was installed from the AUR, you can check which repo it is using by running:

yay libpdfium-nojs

This should give you a list of repos where you can get the package from (including the AUR), while also showing where you installed yours from.

Example:

6 aur/yay-git 12.4.1.r0.g3a118b76-1 (+50 1.09) 
    Yet another yogurt. Pacman wrapper and AUR helper written in go. (development version)
5 aur/yay-bin 12.4.1-1 (+283 6.83) 
    Yet another yogurt. Pacman wrapper and AUR helper written in go. Pre-compiled.
4 archcraft/yay-debug 12.3.5-1 (2.5 MiB 12.4 MiB) 
    Detached debugging symbols for yay
3 extra/ruby-yard 0.9.34-2 (1.0 MiB 5.6 MiB) 
    YARD is a Ruby Documentation tool. The Y stands for "Yay!"
2 archcraft/yay 12.3.5-1 (3.1 MiB 8.9 MiB) 
    Yet another yogurt. Pacman wrapper and AUR helper written in go.
1 aur/yay 12.4.1-1 (+2227 30.82) (Installed: 12.3.5-2)
    Yet another yogurt. Pacman wrapper and AUR helper written in go.

I use Archcraft, and the current Yay version is 12.3.5-1, but the AUR version is 12.3.5-2.
Notice that my yay is directly from the AUR:

aur/yay 12.4.1-1 (+2227 30.82) (Installed: 12.3.5-2)
