cower depends on curl which depends on openssl. The bits of calls to openssl in cower are a direct result of using curl, so not having an explicit dependency on openssl is not wrong either. Maybe libcurl should provide an api to set mutex allocation and lock callbacks?

cower links directly to libcrypto, therefore it should depend on curl. It doesn't matter why -- the dependency is absolutely there.

Adding locking callbacks to libcurl has been discussed on the mailing list several times. They won't exist until someone is motivated to add them.

What is the date format for %a (last modified) and %s (submission date)? Am i missing another option to convert the date? Does Sun 13 Apr 2014 02:40:18 PM MDT = 1397421618?

It looks like the number of seconds, epoch, standard stuff: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time

Edit:

$ date -d 2014-04-13 +%s

Edit 2: Is your cower up to date?

Cower is up to date, I just installed it last night. I'll try this when I get home:

$ date -d @$(cower -i --format %a zukitwo-themes)

Thank you for the info. I had just installed cower, was testing the different commands and was wondering if I was missing something when use the date options.

m177er ~ $ sudo pacman -Qm cower
cower 11-3

m177er ~ $ date -d @$(cower -i --format %a zukitwo-themes)

First of all thanks for your contribution falconindy.

Unless I miss something, neither the --ignore parameter nor the IgnorePkg variable in config works

~/.config/cower $ cower --debug -uv --ignore z600

I'm not sure what you mean, alphe.
I have moc-svn in IgnorePkg.

$ cower -uv --ignore rxvt-unicode-multi_display-256xresources

<snip>

warning: moc-svn [ignored] 2526-1 -> 2536-1

alphe · 2014-05-03 11:39:39

I assumed that with ignore* cower will ignore this package at all.

From your example I understand that does not update these packages. Just like pacman.

I have a few local packages. Some of them exist in aur but I have modified them so I do want these packages to be handled by cower.

Either way it is (almost) the same.

Thanks karol.

karol · 2014-05-03 17:27:06

If you don't want the warning in the output, you have to use the '-q' switch

$ cower -uq --ignore rxvt-unicode-multi_display-256xresources
$

as just dropping '-v' is not enough:

$ cower -u --ignore rxvt-unicode-multi_display-256xresources
warning: moc-svn [ignored] 2526-1 -> 2536-1
warning: rxvt-unicode-multi_display-256xresources [ignored] 9.19-1 -> 9.20-1

Nothing gets updated either way.

axper · 2014-05-09 12:36:43

Is it possible to list every package from AUR? I want to grep the output to find every package in specified category.

falconindy · 2014-05-09 12:43:00

No, it isn't.

axper · 2014-05-09 13:46:06

Is it possible to search exact name?

falconindy · 2014-05-10 13:18:26

sure, but in that case, you'd be using -i, not -s.

Suggest you read the manual...

karol · 2014-06-13 12:12:39

IIRC, pacman used to print package description at the bottom, but now it's near the top:

$ pacman -Si firefox
Repository     : extra
Name           : firefox
Version        : 30.0-1
Description    : Standalone web browser from mozilla.org

<snip>

Do you want to keep the package descriptions at the bottom in cower?

$ cower -i wine-wow64-git
Repository     : aur
Name           : wine-wow64-git
Version        : 20120216-1

<snip>

Description    : A compatibility layer for running Windows programs (both 32-bit and 64-bit; from git)

Any plans to update for libalpm.so.9?

Not sure what you mean, but cower-git works with pacman 4.2:

$ pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libalpm.so.9
/usr/lib/libalpm.so.9 is owned by pacman 4.2.0-2
$ cower --version

             Cower....

Jristz · 2014-12-22 03:57:02

Maybe is talking about take adventage of new features only present in the new pacman?

I meant a new release of cower, sorry for being unclear

I was trying to isntall cower and encountered the following error:

==> Verifying source file signatures with gpg...
    cower-12.tar.gz ... FAILED (unknown public key 1EB2638FF56C0C53)
==> ERROR: One or more PGP signatures could not be verified!

And I got around it following the steps described in https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=152337. It did work, though as that post is already more than 2 years old, I was wondering if this was the best way to solve the issue or if there's a better way?

Thanks for the info. Still, it looks to me that the fix I posted above pointed makepkg to pacman's signed keys, instead of individually signing the key of that specific package.

jmontano · 2016-07-12 16:05:16

Trying to build cower got this error message:

==> Iniciando build()…
cc -pthread  -Wl,-O1,--sort-common,--as-needed,-z,relro  cower.o aur.o package.o  -lcurl -lalpm -lyajl -larchive -lcrypto -o cower

make: *** [<integrado>: cower] Error 1
==> ERROR: Se produjo un fallo en build().

I have no idea how to solve it. Anyone does?

[SOLVED] it was the stupidest mistake. I'd ran out of space on my /tmp partition.
