Serching for a package in Repositories

Ok don't beat me, I've read the man page but I can't manage how to search for a package giving a string to pacman. For example, if I want to search all packages in db that contains *xfce*, what should I do?

Mr Green wrote:
pacman -Ss <package>
(packages in repros.)
pacman -Qi | grep <package>
(local)
For local repositories you can use:
pacman -Qs <pkgname>

  • 10.8.2 update: can't install "error occurred while evaluating Javascript for the package"

    Greetings All-
    I'm trying to update from 10.8.1 to 10.8.2 on my Macbook Air. When I downloaded the .dmg from Apple and ran it, I got the following error:
    "OS X Update Can't be installed on this disk. An error occurred while evaluating JavaScript for the package."
    So far, I've done the following, all to no avail:
    (1) Updated Java to v7 per Java's website, no change
    (2) Downloaded the 10.8.2 combo update, no change
    (3) Found Apple's OS X Java update (which is still at v6)- get an error at install that "the contents of the disk can't be changed"
    (4) Restarted at each step
    Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?
    Thanks!

    Permission repair, too?

  • Pkgman - a bash script for local package and PKGBUILD management

    hi all,
    here is a script which manages a local repository and lets you edit
    PKGBUILDs and other related files, automatically generates checksums,
    build packages, add them to your local repo and so on.
    it also has AUR support for submitting tarballs, leaving comments, etc.
    get it from here:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/pkgman/
    and AUR package:
    http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=17100
    you need abs, curl and pacman and optionally namcap and desktop-file-utils.
    RTFM online:
    http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/p … n_man_page
    first of all copy the pkgman.conf and AUR.conf files from /usr/share/pkgman to ~/.config/pkgman/  or ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/pkgman - if ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME} is set,
    edit these two files and then run
    pkgman --runmefirst
    pkgman doesn´t install anything. if you want it just builds the package and moves it to your local repository. install it then with pacman.
    it also has no dependency handling. there are many other tools which provide this.
    the main intention was to keep track of package versions, different PKGBUILD versions and own AUR submitted tarballs; also to keep a clean local repository and clean build directories.
    pkgman is stable now. i´m using it for months without any issues.
    however, if there are problems or feedback please post them here.

    changelog:
    version 2.4:
           *pkgman now respects the PKGDEST and SRCDEST variables from makepkg.conf. (though it still moves the src.tar.gz and .pkg.tar.gz to package backup directory).
    version 2.5:
           *pkgman uses PKGDEST if SRCDEST not set in makepkg.conf.
    version 2.6 -> r26:
           *changed version system: version 2.6 is now r26!
           *minor changes: > pkgman uses now the $SHELL variable.
                                    > new and more comprehensible manpage description (thanks to bender02)
    version r27:
           *changed SRCDEST since it's only a cache dir. all files (pkg.tar.gz and src.tar.gz) go to PKGDEST.
    version r28:
           *added new variable ShellCommand to pkgman.conf. Default is $SHELL.
           *One might use an external application (like screen or xterm) to switch to build directory and edit files simultaneously.
    version r30:
           *minor changes. nothing crucial
    r32: *OverwriteExistingPackage isn't used anymore. one can delete it from ~/.config/pkgman/pkgman.conf.
           *minor changes
    version r33:
           *"-l|--list" also shows installed package version and available ABS/AUR PKGBUILD version for given package.
           *"-a|--abs" can now also be used with other options (like "-e")
    r39: * when backing up src.tarballs it asks whether to backup the source file or not
           * more detailed "--list" option - also shows if package is installed or not and available ABS/AUR version
           * added prompt to clean up directory after makepkg
           * when checking pkg.tar.gz also possibility to check for conflicts with files of already installed packages
           * use $PAGER instead of less
           * --help directly shows the manpage
           * --shorthelp shows a brief usage overview
           * added a custom prompt, but only when using bash (is somehow experimental - works fine here for me)
           * minor internal changes
           * pkgman also reads ~/.aurvote file for getting aur name and password. if one already uses aurvote then there is no need for the
             ~/.config/pkgman/AUR.conf file.
    r40: * new manual page & rewrite of usage function
           * both option "--flush" and "--flushall" were omitted in favor of the more versatile "--cleanup" option
           * pkgman <packagename> checks now if <packagename> is owned by user
           * backup option after each editing
           * added license
           * minor internal changes
    r41: * just small bug fixes, nothing crucial.
    r42: * more bugs fixed.
    r45: * new options added:
              >   --listversions: list local and available versions of installed packages from LocalPackages directory
              >  --getownpackages: synchronize local own packages with AUR
           * added new variable in pkgman.conf:
              > ListOutputInPager: output of, for example, "--list" or "--own" is piped into $PAGER
           * added a new optional dependency "desktop-file-utils" for validating desktop entry files
           * also supports now auto-generation of sha sums not only md5
           * internal fixes due to AUR interface changes:
              > use of json interface
              > correct parsing of package category
           * added 2 proto files (located under /usr/share/pacman):
              >  proto.desktop: a template for *.desktop files
              > PKGBUILD-lib32.proto: a template for lib32 packages for x86_64
           * some code changes and fixes
    r46: * added new option to pkgman.conf (AutoGenerateSums).
             > if AutoGenerateSums=no then pkgman asks whether to generate checksums or not.
             > if set to yes it behaves like in former versions.
    r52: * "--getownpackages" with more than 100 packages works again
           * added new option "--cachecopy":
              For each package in CacheCopyList (new variable in pkgman.conf) get existing package from pacman's cache directory - if
              CopyPkgFromCache (new variable in pkgman.conf) is set to yes - and/or create a source tarball of PKGBUILD and related files from ABS -
              if CopySrcFromABS (new variable in pkgman.conf) is set to yes - and copy them to package backup directory.
           * added new variables to pkgman.conf:
               > "CacheCopyList=file" - batch backup file, one package per line - default location is "$HOME/.config/pkgman/package.list".
               > "CopySrcFromABS=[yes|no]"
               > "CopyPkgFromCache=[yes|no]"
           * some bugfixes
           * docs completed
           * CacheCopyList should look like
    package1
    package2
    #this is a comment
    ! this too
    package3
    !package4
    r54: * renamed "--listversions" option to "--diffversions". makes more sense!
              from the man page:
                  pkgman --diffversions
                  Show differing ABS/AUR versions of installed packages from LocalPackages.
    r55: * minor changes.
    r57: * testing release
           * added a new option "--rollback":
               "pkgman <packagename> --rollback" - checks  http://arm.kh.nu for available package versions,
                                                          lets you choose one, fetches the package and
                                                          moves it to the <packagename> backup directory (if "--repoadd" is used).
    r59: * stable release
           * new option "--rollback" (see r57):
                   it checks http://arm.kh.nu (Arch Rollback Machine) for available package versions,
                   downloads chosen file and moves it to local repository (if "-r|--repoadd"  is used).
            * posting files/comments/etc to AUR should work now again.
    r65: *stable release
           * new option "-M,--meta" to create metapackages and add them and their dependencies to local repository.
              it searches for deps inside the backup directories, pacman's cache and if the packages are not available, it tries to fetch the missing
              dependencies from the Arch Rollback Machine site (http://arm.kh.nu).
    r66: * minor fixes
    r68: * some bugfixes
           * "--repoadd" and "--Reporemove" now accurately removes old packages from LocalRepository
    r69: * small bugfixes when listing packages with similar names
           * curl retries now 5 times if connection is not established
    r75: * "--cachecopy" does not try to dl sourcefiles when backing up ABS PKGBUILDs
           * some work on package splitting
           * further internal changes
    r76: * minor mistakes with "ln" purged
    r79: * mostly small changes
           * "--cleanup" now also removes uninstalled packages from LocalRepository
    r81 & r80: * added AUR v1.6.0 support (use more json)
                    * small ARM changes ("--rollback")
    r85:
          * pkgman supports pkg.tar.xz packages
          * some code rewrite, bugs purged (hopefully)
    r113:
          * pkgman now supports building split packages through makepkg.
             If you already use pkgman you need to rerun "pkgman --runmefirst" after updating.
          * new  "-t,--template" option ("pkgman <packagename> --template <alt. packagename> [--pkgbuildversion <version>] [options]").
             Useful to create a new PKGBUILD and use an existing one as a template.
          * new option: "--conf /path/to/alternate/conf/file" - Specify another configuration file.
          * pkgman now uses ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/pkgman or $HOME/.config/pkgman - if first not set - as the default location for its conf files.
    r116:
          * check inet conection when submitting src tarballs to AUR
          * some bugs
          * updated manpage on sf
    For further details please read the manual page.

    No. The last version to include Rh for Word was Rh10. Is there a specific reason for wanting to stick with Rh for Word? There is a learning curve with Rh HTML but it shouldn't be too difficult.

  • Maximum package size for data packages was exceeded and Process terminated

    Hello Guru,
    When i am execute the process chain i got this message Maximum package size for data packages was exceeded and Process terminated,any body help to me in this case how can i proceed.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Suresh.

    Hi,
    When the load is not getiing processed due to huge volume of data, or more number of records per data packet, Please try the below option.
    1) Reduce the IDOC size to 8000 and number of data packets per IDOC as 10. This can be done in info package settings.
    2) Run the load only to PSA.
    3) Once the load is succesfull , then push the data to targets.
    In this way you can overcome this issue.
    You can also try RSCUSTV* where * is an integer to change data load settings.
    Change Datapackage size for extraction, use Transaction RSCUSTV6.
    Change Datapackage size when upload from an R/3 system, set this value in R/3 Customizing (SBIW -> General settings -> Control parameters for data transfer).
    IN R/3, T-Code SBIW --> Genaral settings --> Maintain Control Parameters for Data Transfer (source system specific)
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • "Maximum package size for data packages was exceded".

    Hi,
    We are getting the below error.
    "Maximum package size for data packages was exceded".
    In our scenario we are loading the data product key wise (which is a semantic key as well) to the DSO thro’ a start routine.
    The logic in the start routine is such a way that it calculates the unique product counts , product key wise. Hence we are trying to
    group  the product key thro’ semantic groups.
    Ex: In this example the product counts should be A = 1,B=2 ,C = 1
      Product Key
      Products
      A
      1000100
      B
      2000100
      C
      3000100
      B
      2000300
      C
      3000100
    For some product keys the data is so huge that we could not load the data & we are getting the error.
    Please suggest any alternate way to  handle this thro’ code or introducing any other flow.
    Regards,
    Barla

    HI
    we can solve the issue by opening the system setting of data packer size
    like below we have create 2 programs, 1 for open the system settings,2 for
    close the settings .
    1 start program
    data: z_roidocprms like table of
    roidocprms.
    data: wa like line of z_roidocprms.
    wa-slogsys = 'system_client' . wa-maxsize = '50000'. wa-statfrqu = '10'.
    wa-maxprocs = '6'. wa-maxlines = '50000'.
    insert wa into table z_roidocprms.
    Modify roidocprms from table z_roidocprms .
    2 close program
    data: z_roidocprms like table of roidocprms.
    data: wa like line of z_roidocprms.
    wa-slogsys = 'syetm_client' . wa-maxsize = '50000'. wa-statfrqu = '10'.
    wa-maxprocs = '6'. wa-maxlines = '50000'.
    insert wa into table z_roidocprms.
    modify roidocprms from table z_roidocprms .
    data load infopakage settings we have to maintain like
    below
    we have create the process chain like as below
    1 start progarm
    data load infopakage
    2 close program.
    This might fix the problem.
    Regards,
    Polu.

  • Global Defined Table - Existing for single package only or for all package

    Hi Folks,
    I got a question around global fields in start routines of transformations.
    Lets say I have defined in the global section a table that should hold some lookup values retrieved in the start routine (e.g. material attributes for all material number entries in the data package). Later this table is used in the transformation to "fill fields" for the target cube.
    Will this table be "initiated" for every package so it will hold only the data the start routine put there.
    Or is it "existing" throughout the whole update process and every new package will "add" records there so overtime it will grow from package to package?
    Thanks and best regards,
