Fix for yaourt

snoopcatt · 2012-02-19 09:32:04

For fix this issue

In /usr/lib/yaourt/aur.sh:

#!/bin/bash
#
# aur.sh : deals with AUR
# This file is part of Yaourt (http://archlinux.fr/yaourt-en)

AUR_PKG_URL="$AURURL/packages.php?setlang=en&ID="

load_lib abs
load_lib pkgbuild

# Fix 
make_prefix() {
echo "$1" | grep -o ^..
}

# Get sources in current dir
aur_get_pkgbuild() {
        [[ $1 ]] || return 1
        local pkg=${1#*/}
        local prefix=$(make_prefix $pkg)
        #(( $# > 1 )) && local pkgurl=$2 || \
        #local pkgurl=$(pkgquery -Aif "%u" "$pkg")
        local pkgurl="$AURURL/packages/$prefix/$pkg/$pkg.tar.gz"
        if [[ ! "$pkgurl" ]] || ! curl_fetch -fs "$pkgurl" -o "$pkg.tar.gz"; then
                error $(_gettext '%s not found in AUR.' "$pkg");
                return 1;
        fi
        bsdtar --strip-components 1 -xvf "$pkg.tar.gz"
        rm "$pkg.tar.gz"
}
...
...

Same here, thanks!

Thanks

Submit a patch to the yaourt devs.

snoopcatt · 2012-02-19 10:46:43

It's not a yaourt issue, it's AUR site issue

Axon · 2012-02-19 10:47:12

Great, thank you. I'm curious how soon this will be fixed...

It's a yaourt issue because of the way yaourt access to the AUR. Other AUR helpers work, so why would it be an AUR issue if others work?

snoopcatt · 2012-02-19 10:55:43

Seems that the url redirects for AUR packages were removed sometime in the last day or so, which seems to be breaking both pacman packer and yaourt.
For example, packer will try to resolve
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/andr … ols.tar.gz
which previously redirected to
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/an/a … ols.tar.gz
but does not anymore.

In addition, my way to fix this issue is very dirty

algorythm · 2012-02-19 11:11:27

So why not just change the "local pkgurl" to include the "an"?:

local pkgurl="$AURURL/packages/an/$pkg/$pkg.tar.gz"

snoopcatt · 2012-02-19 11:14:47

because "an" is prefix for some package.
For "virtualbox_bit" local pkgurl is "$AURURL/packages/vi/$pkg/$pkg.tar.gz"

algorythm · 2012-02-19 11:21:07

Oh right. That's stupid of me.

retsam · 2012-02-19 11:54:52

Why don't just change the code in way of making a new variable which holds first two charters.

example of code (packer fix, works for me)

one line 282

 short1=${1:0:2}

  # Prepare the installation directory
  # If there is an old directory and aurversion is not newer, use old directory
  if . "$dir/$1/PKGBUILD" &>/dev/null && ! aurversionisnewer "$1" "$pkgver-$pkgrel"; then
    cd "$dir/$1"
  else
    [[ -d $dir ]] && rm -rf $dir
    mkdir -p "$dir"
    cd "$dir"
    curl -Lfs "$PKGURL/$short1/$1/$1.tar.gz" > "$1.tar.gz"
    tar xf "$1.tar.gz"
    cd "$1"

and

on line 583

shortp=${package:0:2}

  for package in "${pkglist[@]}"; do
    curl -Lfs "$PKGURL/$shortp/$package/$package.tar.gz" > "$package.tar.gz"
    tar xf "$package.tar.gz" 
  done
fi

a little simpler version (w/out echo/grep) might be:

local pkgurl="$AURURL/packages/${pkg:0:2}/$pkg/$pkg.tar.gz"

hokasch · 2012-02-19 12:17:32

The old url style works again, so no ned for this fix anymore (see bug report).

The redirects were a courtesy. package-query and packer really need to be updated to use the URLPath from the JSON-RPC reply and not just assume where packages are.

chimeracoder · 2012-02-19 16:58:20

For the record packer, is fixed.

Before I mark this thread as solved, is there any plan to restore the compact urls, or is everyone expected to use the full urls from now on?

hokasch · 2012-02-21 12:51:59

Looks like package-query will be fixed with the next release as well.

hi at all, i have this problem
for example:
yaourt -S xampp

==> Download PKGBUILD xampp from AUR...
==> ERROR: xampp not found in AUR.
with yajl-2.1.0-1 package-query-1.2-2 yaourt-1.3-1

i have try the solution from this post but don't work
i installed package-query-git and your dependences but don't work:
yajl-2.1.0-1 package-query-git-1.2.6.g333d94a-1 yaourt-git-1.3.36.g64dac00-1

can i do?
tnk

edit:

with sudo yaourt -S xampp i solved the problem, but why?
with yaourt i never used sudo because at the end is required pwd

First thing to do is stop necrobumping.

mcpalls,
As Scimmia point out by linking to our policy, this thread is a bit old. Much has changed in two years.
I am going to go ahead and close this thread. I have not looked myself, but use the Bugs link on this site and check to see if anyone has made any suggestions there.
If you still have problems, go ahead and start a new thread that you will own If you feel this thread is still applicable, go ahead and link back to this thread from your new thread.
