[SOLVED]yajl and broken yaourt

aluser · 2011-04-28 23:03:59

After doing a system upgrade and upgrading yajl to version 2.0 yaourt is not working anymore. There is a thread here somewhere with the same issue, but the fixes there don't seem to work for me.

I've tried removing yaourt, packagequery and yajl completely and start from scratch installing yaourt from the archlinux.fr repositores and yet still yaourt throws me errors. This error is using yajl-2.0.1-1, package-query-0.8-1, and yaourt 0.10.1-2 which have been supposedly updated to work with the new version of yajl.. but not for me.

package-query: error while loading shared libraries: libyajl.so.1: cannot open shared obh file or directory

If I downgrade to yajl 1.0 the problem persists (i'm using this link http://arm.konnichi.com/2011/04/25/comm … g.tar.xz_) but this time I get a different error..

 problem setting dbpath '/usr/local/var/lib/pacman/' (could not find or read directory

I've also downloaded the pkgbuilds for each package and built it instead of adding archlinux.fr to the pacman repository and installing from there, but its the same problem.

Try package-query-git from AUR and see if that works.

yay for the search function!

Edit: Don't use the [archlinuxfr] repo, it usually contains old/broken/bad packages.

So, at some point you installed pacman by hand. Note the '/usr/local' in there which should never exist.

Just tried it, still the same 'package-query: error while loading shared libraries: libyajl.so.1: cannot open shared object file or directory' error. I did some searching and libyajl.so.1 doesn't exist, but I have these files instead. What should I do? I tried renaming them to libyajl.so.1 one by one and Instead I got the dbpath error.

/usr/lib

[aluser@archws lib]$ ls libyajl*
libyajl_s.a  libyajl.so  libyajl.so.2  libyajl.so.2.0.1

Well I don't know about that. The website has worked for me all the time and its mentioned in the wiki, also it seems the latest package-query package is updated

I've never installed pacman by hand. I don't know why dbpath is understood as ''/usr/local/var/lib/pacman/' when in fact its just /var/lib/pacman

This is the output of yaourt -v..

No offense intended, but are you sure you know how to use the AUR? I mean, without yaourt? If you built and installed package-query-git (or even package-query) against yajl 2, you should not be getting that error.

Or to put it another way, what exactly did you do when you tried package-query-git?

I downloaded the tarball, extracted it, and ran 'makepkg -s' along with 'sudo pacman -U [package].xz...I'm doing it right.. right?

Yes, you are doing it right.

anyone? maybe some file is corrupted? why am i the only one with this problem

0sz · 2011-04-29 20:00:59

what i did was install it yajl first "sudo pacman -S yajl" then yaourt. it worked for me

problem setting dbpath '/usr/local/var/lib/pacman/' (could not find or read directory

If this was with yaourt, you must have build package-query without the needed prefix (or installed a bad package). If pacman -v shows the same, you are in some more serious trouble.

Maybe something got messed up in between; just try once more to start from scratch, i.e.
- if you symlinked any libraries, undo it (bad idea)
- remove yaourt & package query
- pacman -Syu
- build package-query from AUR
- build yaourt from AUR
- install them

I tried again from scratch once again and still the same problem. This time I included the whole procedure and all the build logs are also included. Hopefully someone knows whats wrong.

pacman -Qo /usr/local/bin/package-query

It says no package owns it.. is that bad?

That means you have manually installed package-query into /usr/local at some stage. The version you build using makepkg comes later in your PATH so is not being used. You need to remove the relevant files from /usr/local.

I finally got it to work, thanks! I learned something new today.

Moral of the story: _always_ use makepkg/pacman
