Aura - 4.0.4 - The Multilingual Package Manager

fosskers · 2014-03-31 15:59:01

Awesome, thanks.

aexoxea · 2014-04-04 09:25:16

...and now haskell-cereal is up to date (thanks to the established maintainer). So that's all of them (re: #1398902).

(I hadn't done any follow-up on any of the packages concerned beyond the initial flag-and-comment, so don't really deserve any credit for their getting updated now; that's all due to the efforts of the maintainers, and any others that have being doing such follow-ups).

Anyways, hopefully new installs and updates will go smoothly now .

I have two questions:

In which directory does Aura build packages from the AUR?
In which directory does Aura store old PKGBUILDs?

I'm sorry to bother you again, but I haven't found any way to solve this problem.
[#1398580]
I was hit with these same symptoms in the versions prior to 1.2.3.0, with comments on the aur/aura package page suggesting at least a few others were too. Since 1.2.3.0 the symptoms went away, because:

[#1379993]
If your difficulties began after updating to 1.2.3.0 or above, the panoply of makedepends pulled in for the 1.2.3.0 update (if using the normal aur/aura package) might provide further clues on where the issue could lie. Unfortunately I can't really help beyond that (and mainly just wanted to note the above), but I wish you luck with same.

I just realised I missed a piece from this; the affected version(s) of aura (before 1.2.3.0) should work if you downgrade core/curl to 7.33.0-3 or below (that was how I was able to keep it working here). Given that all of the makedepends PKGBUILDs have been updated, you should theoretically be able to downgrade core/curl, update through aura normally, then upgrade core/curl back to the latest version.

Anyways, I promise to stop spamming the thread now and leave all the future question-answering to @fosskers .

fosskers · 2014-04-07 05:53:18

@aexoxea: No, I appreciate your input.

@essence-of-foo: By default, Aura builds in temporary folders within the package cache (/var/cache/pacman/pkg)
Old PKGBUILDs are stored in (/var/cache/aura/pkgbuilds)

I'm having issues from 1.2.3.0 on, never had a problem before. I'm using the aura-bin package from AUR though, I'll try to compile it myself and see if it changes.

@gondesman
I'm using aura-bin 1.2.3.0 and everything works. Download tarball and run makepkg -s followed by pacman -U.

with version 1.2.3.0 I get the error:

flamusdiu · 2014-04-15 11:13:43

Looks like building 1.2.3.1 doesn't work atm. Here's the out put

aura >>= `aura` PKGBUILD is up to date.
aura >>= Determining dependencies...
aura >>= Dependency checking failed for these reasons:
The dependency `haskell-conduit` demands version `<1.1`but the most recent version is `1.1.0-4`.

So, I pull down the PKGBUILD file and then build it:

==> Making package: aura 1.2.3.1-1 (Tue Apr 15 06:55:18 EDT 2014)

  -> haskell-http-conduit
==> ERROR: Could not resolve all dependencies.

So lets install the dependencies:

$ sudo aura -S ghc haskell-{regex-{base,pcre},json,mtl,parsec,transformers,temporary} && sudo aura -Akx haskell-http-conduit

This fails for the wrong ghc version for one of the dependancies so now do this:

Seems, the version it wants (the older one) is in the extra's repo. I have the haskell one set up above that one at the moment.

Originally, i had an issue with the haskell upgrades so I removed all the haskell stuff to reinstall to rebuild Aura but no luck.

fosskers · 2014-04-16 23:19:31

`haskell-transformers` is at fault. At the moment I can't upgrade ghc at all either, meaning dep conflicts like this are going to occur. I've contacted the `haskell-core` maintainers about the status of `haskell-transformers` so we'll see what comes of it.

RGR. I guess I'll just wait around then. THX for the update.

fosskers · 2014-04-19 20:23:33

Just to let you know, I had to nuke-and-pave my entire haskell install to get the problems sorted out. It's fine now, and I'm on 7.8 with no conflicts.

zoqaeski · 2014-05-04 05:56:29

I use Aura for quick installing of packages, but I also use makepkg and pacman standalone for my own forks of software that might be available in the AUR or elsewhere (especially *-git versions). Aura sometimes tries to overwrite these, so would it be worthwhile for Aura to mark all the packages that it builds and installs? Maybe by automatically appending an "aura" group, or [an option to do] something like that?

Oh, and I don't know if this has been raised before, but running aura with an operation and `-h` results in it reporting conflicting flags. In pacman the same combination of operation and flag gives a brief help about the flags available.

1. Unfortunately Aura has no way of knowing _how_ a particular package was previously installed. If it sees that a local foreign (AUR or otherwise) package has a newer version available, it will build and install the new version, as you've reported, assuming it was an AUR package.
2. One of the aspects of the coming-soon Aura redesign is Aura displaying help information for all major operators with `-h` as pacman does.

fosskers · 2014-05-13 02:17:26

Hey guys, I made an announcement on the original post in this thread about Aura's redesign. Check it out!

orschiro · 2014-05-13 07:24:31

@fosskers

Your announced redesign sounds great! Concerning contribution, what do you have in mind for contributing except coding?

I would love to contribute. However, I cannot code.

fosskers · 2014-05-13 15:56:42

Not a problem. You can always suggest things to add to the design document. You can do so by either:
1. (the hard way) Doing it through github and making a pull request, or;
2. (the easy way) Indicate a section on here and type what you think should be added, and I'll add it to the dock myself.

GSF1200S · 2014-05-13 18:44:43

Are you still planning on keeping a bin version in the AUR? I would just like to mention I use frequently the --dryrun option so itd be nice to see that return in the new version. Ive had no issues with Aura and thank you for your hard work!

Spyhawk · 2014-05-13 20:47:39

3. Better bash parsing

I'm not sure if you are aware of it yet, but there is some good stuff coming with AUR v3.0.0, namely {make,opt}depends arrays accessible through the RPC interface (at least for the x64 architecture).
In other words, all the bash parsing might become useless in the near future. All helpers could get rid of lot of hacky code and benefit of a secure *and* accurate solver.

Check the aur-dev mailing list for the patches thread and annoncement. It's already online on the dev server.

It's based on the AUR Metadata (.SRCINFO/.AURINFO files) that has been introduced last year. The PKGBUILDs are bash parsed when creating the tarball before upload, making it easy to create a machine readable format that removes parsing risk on the end user side. I guess we've been waiting for this for a long time, and it's finally coming.

fosskers · 2014-05-15 03:08:41

That's going to make our lives a lot easier. Aura makes redundant http requests with the current setup, and it really slows things down. This will mean a lot fewer calls to the API, too.

Can someone please try if he can build atom-editor-git?

For me it always fails but on the AUR page people confirm that they can successfully build it using other AUR helpers.

Thus I am wondering if this is an Aura-specific problem or an issue on my system.

I just tried bulding that package, and succeeded. The problem is on your side.

orschiro,
I hate to ask, but... At one point you were running Antegros, is this now an Arch system? If not, might that not be the issue?
