Aura - 4.0.4 - The Multilingual Package Manager

stef_204 · 2017-01-27 10:13:50

@fosskers

as of last update (yesterday) gstreamer0.10 packages (the whole series) is unable to build using aura, I get multiple errors, not sure yet is attributable to aura, to the packaging of these AUR packages, or both.
anyone else here with similar problems?

aura >>= AUR Packages to upgrade:
gstreamer0.10 : 0.10.36-4 => 0.10.36-6
gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg : 0.10.13-2 => 0.10.13-3
gstreamer0.10-good : 0.10.31-11 => 0.10.31-12
gstreamer0.10-good-plugins : 0.10.31-11 => 0.10.31-12
gstreamer0.10-ugly : 0.10.19-16 => 0.10.19-17
gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins : 0.10.19-16 => 0.10.19-17

aura >>= The following are not AUR packages:
gstreamer0.10-good-plugins
gstreamer0.10-ugly-plugins

I also get errors while building the 1st package on the list, gstreamer0.10, which I resolved by building in a clean chroot. But that's more than likely unrelated.

Did you try building with makepkg? That would tell you if it is an aura or PKGBUILD problem.

EDIT: Builds just fine in a chroot for me, so I'm not sure what your problem is, especially since you didn't provide build logs.

@runical
You're missing the point. It's not a matter of whether it builds in a clean chroot or not. It's an issue that Aura seems to want to update those series of packages but cannot.
I would say there may be something wrong upstream e.g. the PKGBUILDs in the AUR for the gstreamer0.10 series contain errors; or there is some type of issue with Aura.

Edit: the gstreamer0.10 series of packages seems a mess at the moment; a lot of users seem to have problems with these, no matter which AUR Helper they use.
I ended downloading snapshots for each (10 packages) and building each in a clean chroot and installing manually using pacman -U.

So I would think that Aura should be off the hook in this series of packages.

Edit: some corrections were made to some of the gstreamer0.10 packages today, and Aura picked those up, and was able to build and upgrade them so looks like problems was upstream.

@fosskers
Incidentally, isn't Aura supposed to check pacman.conf for ignored packages? Because it seems that globbing inside pacman,conf is not recognized by Aura, forcing one to list related packages one by one. Example: 'gstreamer0.10*' or 'gstreamer*' is not recognized.

Edit: I have just noticed that Aura also seems not to parse or take into consideration "IgnoreGroup". I should probably file a bug?
Edit: this bug already filed here: https://github.com/aurapm/aura/issues/312/

Ah, seems I misread. I thought you said that the first package didn't build in a chroot.

The gstreamer0.10* packages were recently dropped to AUR since they were deprecated. You might want to check if you actually still need them and see if you can get rid of them entirely if possible.

Aura 1.3.8 released!

1.3.8
-----
- Fixed behaviour of `-B` flags. For restoring of saved states, use the long form: `aura -B --restore`. Cache backups also need to take their long form: `aura -C --backup`.
- Fixed handling of language flags. Thanks to Doug Patti!

The new version can still not be built without third-party repositories:

==> Making package: haskell-aur 6.0.0.1-1 (Sun Oct  8 01:35:46 CEST 2017)
==> Checking runtime dependencies...
==> Installing missing dependencies...
[sudo] password for user:
error: target not found: haskell-aeson<1.2 # in repos but at 1.2.2
error: target not found: haskell-servant-client>=0.9 # neither in repos or AUR

I guess it's an improvement over last year...

Since a few days I have the problem that some packages cannot be build via aura anymore. Since there was an update recenlty I was wondering if anybody faces the same issue?

aura >>= Build package `qownnotes`...

Then, nothing happens. It stays in this state for hours without any cpu usage. This affects multiple non-related packages, but not all packages.

Use the -x flag to see what happens.

Hello,
Thank you for a helpful tool. Recent version has problems accessing backup lists
local/aura-bin 2.3.0-1

$ sudo aura -Bc 2

aura: /var/cache/aura/states/..: openBinaryFile: inappropriate type (is a directory)

fosskers · 2020-05-11 16:37:02

Thanks for reporting matoxxx, let me look into that.

I opened this issue to keep track of it: https://github.com/fosskers/aura/issues/592

Hi again matoxxx. I've fixed the bug. The change will be included in the next release, which will be soon.

essence-of-foo · 2020-05-15 08:06:31

Hi, I'm a new user of aura. And I'm wondering if there is a way to combine the two commands

sudo aura -Syu
sudo aura -Au

into a single command, to update all packages on my system.

Thanks,
this forum lacks a thumbs up feature

fosskers · 2020-05-15 15:02:35

@essence-of-foo: By design, there is not. Repo packages and AUR packages are all handled completely separately.

@matoxxx: My pleasure

I'm considering porting Aura to Rust. If you have thoughts for/against such an effort, please let me know here: https://github.com/fosskers/aura/issues/657

Alad · 2020-10-29 14:11:05

I'm not sure which one of those benefits speak for Rust, instead of say, C++. Unless that "clap" is so amazing it warrants the use of Rust.
