I recently noticed the tray update icon doesn’t display when there an update anymore, is it a big deal no not really. But it is a nice reminder :grinning:

Did you try the solution from the link you posted?

Installing pamac-cli

@dalto

Not yet, he also says to install along w/ the pamac-all package :thinking:

You probably don’t need to install pamac-all. I think adding pamac-cli is the important part.

@dalto

I have libpamac-git installed, do i also need to install libpamac ?

I’m getting these errors if i try to install via pamac

could not satisfy dependencies:
- unable to satisfy dependency 'archlinux-appstream-data-pamac' required by libpamac
- unable to satisfy dependency 'libpamac' required by pamac-cli

I get this error via console

[christopher67@EndeavourOS ~]$ yay -S libpamac
 -> No AUR package found for archlinux-appstream-data-pamac
 -> could not find all required packages: archlinux-appstream-data-pamac

:thinking:

It would appear that the package is no longer in the AUR.

Once again, you can see it is not updated PKGBUILD problem. Pamac authors are not responsible for AUR package not updated to get build.

But if you think that a not working PKGBUILD is a bug with pamac itself, I have nothing to add.

End of topic for me. I don’t have time to spent in endless and useless talks.

And this package is orphan. No maintainers doing the job… Well, I know what I have to do.

  1. adopt the package
  2. upgrade it
  3. orphan it once again.

Edit: done. This package can be built once again without any problems, as far as I know.

Just letting you know as you said you couldn’t find issues. Even if it’s not your responsibility it’s a never ending cascade of help threads for it in all forms. It is an issue even if not yours directly.

There is ALWAYS someone asking for help or having a problem it seems.

I never said I could not find issues. I was just asking for some examples. Using google is not a right answer because you can find everything and its opposite.

I know you hate with passion Pamac. Just don’t use it, don’t hurt yourself :smiley:

Once again, end of topic for me. I don’t want to pollute this thread with an endless talk.

Have a good day.

Please focus the topic on the OP’s issue going forward. We don’t need editorial conversation about the state of pamac.

Sorry i was not aware, been busy for the last couple of weeks and didn’t see this posted anywhere when doing a search.
