[Solved] Yay could not find all required packages

Hey guys, I installed yay-git so I could build woeusb-git in order to create a recovery USB but if I try running

yay -S moeusb-git

I get an error that says "Could not find all required packages: woeusb-git (target)". I already installed base-devel and tried uncommenting the multilib lines in /ect/pacman.conf with no results.

Re: [Solved] Yay could not find all required packages

Neither woeusb-git nor moeusb-git is in the AUR. I'm guessing you misspelled (twice) woeusb-gui.

Re: [Solved] Yay could not find all required packages

Ah, I got it from this guide: https://computingforgeeks.com/create-wi … -on-linux/
Maybe the packages were merged?

I got woeusb-gui installed and I have everything ready to create the bootable usb but I'm getting this error:

Installation failed!
Exit code: 256
Log:
WoeUSB v3.3.1
==============================
Error: Target device is currently busy, unmount all mounted partitions in target device then try again
Target device is busy, please make sure you unmount all filesystems on target device or shutdown the computer before detaching it.

I tried detaching my target usb /dev/sda with

umount /dev/sda

and

udisksctl unmount --block-device /dev/sda

but get back

umount: /dev/sda: not mounted.

and

Object /org/freedesktop/UDisks2/block_devices/sda is not a mountable filesystem

respectively.

I removed USB and plugged it back in (I'm overwriting all the data anyways) and now the error message is:

Installation failed!
Exit code: 256

Maybe formatting the USB would fix this?

Re: [Solved] Yay could not find all required packages

I'm assuming the program expects to be ran as root, did you do that? Also please use code tags for command outputs rather than quote.

I went ahead and changed my previous post to use code tags, thanks for the advice. And yeah, you were right about it wanting to be run as root, although now I'm getting a different error:

Any idea as to why dd would fail?
Edit: I now saw 'No space left on device'. Let me format it and try again.
Edit2: I formatted my USB drive using

makefs.ntfs -IF /dev/sda

but got the same error as before where dd fails.

?

I think woeusb likes to do the whole thing, I recommend ditching the gui.

I didn't notice it focusing on that partition, good catch. And I would have preferred using it without the gui but I wasn't able to find the woeusb-git package in AUR which is why I am using woeusb-gui. I guess the solution here would be to delete the partitions and try again?

Edit: found woeusb (without the '-git') I'm going to try it with that and if it doesn't work I'll try deleting the partitions on the USB and trying again.
Edit2: it worked on the first attempt with woeusb, so in case you landed on this because you were following the same tutorial, woeusb-git doesn't exist anymore and woeusb-gui isn't maintained anymore and apparently has problems.

No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan
