I was attempting to install Xnviewmp (latest) edition from AUR. Everything seemed successful until it finally compressed and then when I went to install it I get the following error message. I have a Huion graphics tablet setup with my system and it seems to have a conflicting debug file? Cancelling my attempts to install Xnviewmp. . . Any idea’s or suggestions?

Have a look at the following thread and implement the suggested solution there before attempting to build and install the package again.

Missing AUR Debug Packages *-debug

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 :: Searching AUR for updates... :: Searching databases for updates... -> Missing AUR Debug Packages: pacseek-debug there is nothing to do

So what is the final solution to getting rid of the debug files? I read all of the posts and am confused as to the ‘final’ solution to fixing this yay problem if it exists there. Any idea’s or thoughts? Maybe I missing the gist of all the replies as I just scantly read all the comments. . .

You would need to edit /etc/makepkg.conf and in the line that starts with OPTIONS= change debug to !debug

The way I am reading that topic, this will prevent new debug files being created but you could leave what is already there as it is.

Thank you for your response. . . I will reattempt my installation work later today.

Everything works. . . like it was supposed to. I got Xnviewmp installed into my graphics category now and it works. (i.e. latest version). I’m now also now running KDE as a desktop instead of Cinnamon and am surprised how well it works. . . . . pretty nice.
