Clyde - A better libalpm/makepkg wrapper

Try using:

sudo clyde -S --aur somepackage

Well, I tried that before -Sa, still the same issue.

anonymous_user · 2010-09-21 19:56:09

What is the package you trying to install BTW?

Berticus · 2010-09-21 20:39:37

quickserve, I also have xyne's repo, but it's not up-to-date. So it tries to install from xyne's repo, but the package version that it requests doesn't exist.

I was just able to install quickserve from xyne's repo:

Run "sudo clyde -Syy" and try installing again.

well, I know I need to refresh the database. The point is the feature of searching only aur doesn't work as it claims.

aeosynth · 2010-09-24 20:51:53

So are we ever getting a --noedit option?

655321 · 2010-09-24 20:57:26

+1 for the default clyde.conf

ffjia · 2010-09-27 07:35:37

When using clyde to install package from AUR, it first (likely) searches
package in the normal arch repo, then AUR. If I use --aur option, clyde should
only search package(s) in AUR, right?

$ sudo clyde -v -S --aur polipo

That's what I would think too, and that's what it says when I pass it the h flag. However, it doesn't skip checking the repos.

correnos · 2010-09-30 18:01:42

Question: Does Clyde include an easy way to update svn/git packages? I have several of these installed (via yaourt) and would very much like to keep the automatic updating.

virus_found · 2010-10-01 13:52:12

Hello. First time using clyde. It uses makepkg only to build AUR packages, doesn't it? How do I build a regular package, say, git? In yaourt I would "yaourt -Sb git", in bauerbill I would "bauerbill -S --abs git". Thanks.

anonymous_user · 2010-10-02 01:04:46

I tried installing pacfoster from AUR, and Clyde did not show yaourt as a dependency although it is one (and it download it).

2 things I wanna say:

- If by mistake I try to install a package from AUR that is already installed, clyde doesnt notify that the package is already installed on the system.

- Can I have the permission of the developers to write a blog post about clyde? If yes...do you want me to mention anything in particular?

Cheers

cookiecaper · 2010-10-05 19:50:41

Hi. So when I'm downloading big updates like the KDE/GNOME updates, I think it would really help to have a total progress indicator instead of just the individual packages. Would this make people happy/be accepted upstream? I am considering adding it sometime soon.

cookiecaper · 2010-10-05 20:54:15

I also get hangs after installing something from AUR somewhat often. I will install something, and then it will just write a blank line after the 100% line and never finish. I have to ^C it and then I get an error like "could not initialize the transaction". There seems to be no negative effects from killing the process though, and it just hangs there instead of continuing; this is especially frustrating when I am trying to install something with a few dependencies from AUR because it will hang after installing the first or second dependency while I ignore it thinking it is compiling the program I want.

If you add a line saying TotalDownload to clyde.conf (or pacman.conf for pacman) it will do this already

bruce · 2010-10-12 04:55:14

Hey Kiwi, when using the --noconfirm flag when building/installing an aur package as root Clyde exits when prompting the user about using a BuildUser which I would have said is not the correct functionality in this case (although I understand completely if you disagree ).

http://codepad.org/Ub69dSsB
is a patch which makes clyde check whether the --nocommit flag is set before deciding whether to prompt the user for input, if you'd like it at all (pretty basic I know :-p )
ps Sorry I didn't put this on the bug tracker, but I don't have a github account

Is there any way to have Clyde let you edit the PKGBUILD before downloading/installing dependencies?

Yep, I also want to know that...

oxez · 2010-10-26 23:23:43

Hello.

For some unknown reason since today I cannot install anything with clyde.

oxez ~ > sudo clyde -S gdm-old
:: gdm-old package not found, searching for group...
:: gdm-old group not found, searching AUR...
oxez ~ > sudo clyde -S gdm-old
error: failed to init transaction (verrouillage de la base de données impossible)
  if you're sure a package manager is not already
  running, you can remove /var/lib/pacman/db.lck
oxez ~ >

After the "searching AUR..." line, the process seems to exit immediately, but the db.lck file is not removed..

What would cause this? And what file(s) would let me know what's going on?

I'm using the latest git clyde
Thanks

anonymous_user · 2010-10-26 23:55:30

Did you try manually removing /var/lib/pacman/db.lck?

sudo rm /var/lib/pacman/db.lck

Edit: if you cannot install anything from the AUR, it may be because it now uses HTTPS. Clyde possibly needs to be updated to handle this.

Yeah I did delete it, but trying again causes the problem to re-arise. What you suggested about HTTPS might be true, yaourt cannot seem to download the files either.

I'll see what I can do, thanks!

Yikes! Yes the switch to mandatory HTTPS by the AUR cripples clyde which has no HTTPS support. Clyde uses luasocket which does not support https. I will try to fix this as soon as possible. I've asked on the aur-general mailing list if HTTPS can be optional. In the meantime I will try to get clyde working again.
