Hi, i started getting the missing aur packages message on a pretty newly install. yay seems to install a *-debug package for every aur package i install. DO you guys know what could cause this? :: Synchronizing package databases... core is up to date extra is up to date multilib is up to date :…

[image] marlonn: yay seems to install a *-debug package for every aur package i install. In /etc/makepkg.conf. In the line that starts with OPTIONS= change debug to !debug

Thank you very much :slight_smile: Would you know why this was on by default? Never had that problem on my other installs

It was introduced with a pacman update recently, along with some other changes: [image] Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/merge-requests/1' (c787e8c6) · Commits ·... * origin/merge-requests/1: Use devtools x86_64.conf as /etc/makepkg.conf So you would get…

If you never made any changes in /etc/makepkg.conf to begin with, the…

[image] HBR: It could be that pacnew files are only created if you modified the original file. This is the case. For each of the #Package backup files being upgraded, pacman cross-compares three md5sums generated from the file’s contents: one sum for the version originally installed by the …

You’re right! Completely slipped my mind that it gets generated only if modified by user :person_facepalming: [image] HBR: I also found it weird that creating a debug package is now enabled by default. The vast majority of people don’t need that and it only leads to confusion. Indeed. I dug …

I did this and when I do ‘yay’ updates, it still shows the missing debug files [image] [image]

Use yay to remove the debug. yay -Rs electron24-bin-debug

That worked, thanks. Should I still leave my ‘makeconf’ file the way I changed it in my image with the added exclamation?
