Hi!
I got a quick question. I thought that yaourt is able to update old packages installed from Aur automatically.
So for example I type as usually yaourt -Syu --aur but I noticed it doesn't show AUR packages I can update. Only from core/extra/community
For example I just typed:
yaourt yaourt
1 aur/yaourt 0.9.2.6-1 [0.9.2.5-1 installed] (2406)
and see that I can update yaourt. I have other packages installed from AUR, how do I know that a newer version is available without checking it manually?
edit:
so I am happy to mark it as solved. It wasn't a bug, but it is a way how yaourt works.
yaourt -Syu --aur shows packages from core/extra/community.
If I press Y (to install them). It shows a list again with the information how much to download and install and then after pressing "No" to install them, yaourt continues to check AUR packages in this case.
Julien MISCHKOWITZ, the developer said he could change the behavior
Thanks everyone for the attention!

yaourt -Syu --aur should show you upgradable aur packages. There are also a couple of scripts around and Xyne has a package that will display available packages in Conky:

I think it was just
yaourt -Su --aur
But I would think that yaourt -Syu --aur would work as well. Try updating yaourt itself first, then try to update again.

Unfortunately It yaourt doesn't show any packages from aur.
Someone knows how to fix it?
Here is other example:
yaourt bleachbit
1 aur/bleachbit 0.6.0-1 [0.5.4-1 installed] (Out of Date) (91)
But it isn't in the list when I check with yaourt -Syu --aur

Ye, I updated yaourt itself before I posted the thread. It is up to date.

$ sudo yaourt -Syu --aur

yaourt has a bug tracker : http://bugs.archlinux.fr/index/proj3?or … &sort=desc
