Yay Package Manager Currently Down?

General system Applications
1

Hey all. I just wanted to check to see if yay was down for anyone else right now. Currently I’m getting the following when searching a package on yay:

[byte@cain ~]$ yay -Ss test
 -> Error during AUR search: 1 error occurred:
        * request failed: Get "https://aur.archlinux.org/rpc?arg=test&by=name-desc&type=search&v=5": EOF

I tried a full upgrade and got a very similar response to this. I was able to reach the website just fine but maybe I’m misunderstanding the issue.

Thank’s all for the feedback.

AUR seems to be down at the moment.

The AUR is down currently. In the interim, you can still update the system’s native packages in two ways:

sudo pacman -Syu

eos-update

Both commands will skip AUR packages and update from core/extra repos.

You’re a legend. I was trying to look for a package and when I saw it didn’t work I was like “Ah, I might be waiting a minute.”

Glad to know it’s not just a me issue though! I’m going to put this in my back pocket in case I ever need to update packages when it’s down.
