[SOLVED] Can't install yaourt/package-query

Ryuujin · 2010-06-28 11:57:21

Hello,

I followed the instructions on the wiki (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Yaourt#From_the_AUR):

 wget http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/package-query/package-query.tar.gz
 tar zxvf package-query.tar.gz
 cd package-query
 makepkg -si
 cd ..

Output:

My system is up to date:

[ryuujin@q6600 ~]$ pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 community is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
 there is nothing to do
[ryuujin@q6600 ~]$

Version of pacman:

[ryuujin@q6600 ~]$ pacman -Q | grep pacman
pacman 3.4.0-2
pacman-mirrorlist 20100621-1

Full disclosure:

Yaourt was working but recently, I think when pacman 3.4 and the tar.xz packages came it stopped working. So I removed package-query and yaourt (via pacman -R), then when I tried to install them, I got the same error I received that made me try to re-install yaourt (replace 'package-query' in the example below with [name of package I'm installing]:

ERROR: ld.so: object 'libfakeroot.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.

I searched the forums/google to no avail and tried to install yaourt-git and package-query-git, but I got the same error.

Threads I saw:
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=71738
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=477368 (yes, I tried: pacman -Sf $(pacman -Qq | grep -v "$(pacman -Qmq)") )
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=70389
and a few others...
My crappy google search query

Thanks.

This is probably the relevant part:

==> Creating package...
/usr/bin/makepkg: line 902: * 1024 : syntax error: operand expected (error token is "* 1024 ")

makepkg is dying because you have the cw package installed and it "breaks" parsing of the du output. It will be fixed in 3.4.1.

Thank you !

I pacman -R cw and everything works correctly. Marked thread as [SOLVED].
