Re: Need Yaourt download link

Did you try to download it from the AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=5863 ?

wget http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/yaourt/yaourt.tar.gz && tar -xvf yaourt.tar.gz && cd yaourt && makepkg && pacman -U *.pkg.tar.gz

Re: Need Yaourt download link

Better yet, Yaourt is in the French repo (I recommend adding it, lots of apps are available in English, and there's lots of nifty tools there - a few aren't as updated as the AUR versions, though, like bin32-wine): http://repo.archlinux.fr/

How about you read the wiki? Or learn how to use the AUR?

Easy Install

The easiest way to install Yaourt is to add the yaourt repository to your /etc/pacman.conf:

[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/i686

for i686 or:

[archlinuxfr]
Server = http://repo.archlinux.fr/x86_64

for x86-64.

Sync and install:

pacman -Sy yaourt

This comment seems to come up every once and a while, you can probably find other threads where it was discussed. Basically the thought is since yaourt is meant for making packages outside the official repositories, it's better that people learn how to build a package themselves so they understand what yaourt is doing with PKGBUILD files and such rather than somebody blindly doing a pacman -S yaourt.

And installing packages from the AUR may be dangerous so will never be supported by a tool in the official repos.

Re: Need Yaourt download link

yaourt just needs to merge with gtkpacman and then we're in business smile

Personally I think it's better for beginners to start off with the makepkg commands.  Even though they're more time consuming to do they're well worth knowing about.

Re: Need Yaourt download link

I'm disappointed in the immature & elitist approach of some of the Arch members in this thread.

If you can't help someone, then don't post.


I used to be surprised that I was still surprised by my own stupidity, finding it strangely refreshing.
Well, now I don't find it refreshing.
I'm over it!

The wiki is there for a reason though, some people just don't read what's provided. I installed yaourt first day of using Arch just by reading.

And to be fair, they did solve the problem! tongue

I agree about the wiki, & I too had no problem installing yaourt. wink
