Re: yaourt : package-query missing library error

Stop using the archlinuxfr repository, remove package-query and yaourt, and—if you must keep using yaourt—rebuild with makepkg.

Try updating pacman.

pacman -Syu

Pachum99, that won't help. libalpm.so.9 is a relic of the past, it won't be included in an update. Nothing official uses it, or will use it in the future.

Re: yaourt : package-query missing library error

Wait -- we're still getting people who use weirdly-mismatched yaourt packages and don't know how to update an AUR package?

Maybe the fact that even the AUR package for yaourt and package-query now require pacman>=5.0 should have been a clue that something was wrong.

How do you expect to have working software if some (but not all) of the packages are out-of-date?
