Hi,
i need to install a program from yaourt, but one of the dependences that it gives me is already installed.
How can i say to yaourt where to find the installed dependence? Thanks for answers!

If the dependency was installed with pacman/yaourt but has another name, adjust the pkgbuild to add the new name of the dependency, if the dependency was not originally installed through pacman I suggest you do so. I'd also suggest that you read and thoroughly try to understand this wiki page before continuing with anything that has to do with the AUR https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ar … Repository
If what I've just told you still confuses you: provide more information, what do you want to install? what have you already installed that makes you prompt this question? What are the outputs of yaourt?

Learn how to do it manually with makepkg, then you will understand why yaourt fails.
