[solved] Yaourt -Syu ?

Hi

today i noticed by accident that yaourt doesn't update my AUR packages.

For example:

virtualbox_bin itself says that ver3.0.... is installed but "yourt virtualbox_bin" says that the newest version 3.1.... is installed

same with a small tool called gvolwheel: 0.2 is installed but yaourt says 0.6 is installed.

It's no problem to update these two manually but i don't have a clue how many progrms i installed via yaourt.

Where is my error? I think i'm overseeing something very simple. Any hints are greatly appreciated!

Thanks

BIG EDIT:

Stupid me!!!! ->>> "yaourt -Syu – -aur"

Why do I always find the solution AFTER i posted crap in the forums? Sry^^

Use pacman -Qi $pkgname$ to find out information about what is actually installed. If you want to update packages from the AUR as well use yaourt -Syu --aur.

You can also edit the options in /etc/yaourtrc to automatically include the AUR. That's what I did, because I only ever use yaourt to access the AUR, pacman does the normal work for me.
