==> Making package: yaourt 0.10.1-2
==> Checking runtime dependencies...
==> Installing missing dependencies...
error: target not found: package-query>=0.7
==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies.

It's easier to install yaourt from the [archlinuxfr] repo. Add this to the bottom of your /etc/pacman.conf

[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/$arch

now i have this: error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/archlinuxfr.db: Failed to open '/var/lib/pacman/sync/archlinuxfr.db'
error: target not found: package-query>=0.7
==> ERROR: 'pacman' failed to install missing dependencies.

Well, just as the error message says, you need package-query. Do you have it installed?

Did you install package-query from the AUR? It should be 0.8-1 now.
Is your mirror up to date? Perhaps you'll need to try another one.

The AUR packages should work, however. I removed archlinuxfr from my pacman.conf again as it caused problems with some packages it wanted to install instead of my standard ones. The quality of archlinxfr packages is not always the best.

Obviously you need to install package-query, which is also in the AUR.

edit: too late, karol and bernarcher beat me

Do you happen to have the [archstuff] repo installed? If so it's likely pulling it from there instead of archlinuxfr

You can also get yaourt from the archlinux fr site and build it yourself using makepkg -s
