[SOLVED] yaourt and "wrong hashes"

I've just had some troubles updating several packages from AUR with yaourt.
The issues where concentrating on seemingly "wrong hashes".
Today I looked a little deeper and found out, that for some reason (maybe canceled upgrade or similar) yaourt was placing a symlink in the
/tmp/yaourt-tmp-user/package-name/
that refers to a (possibly) broken file in
/var/cache/yaourt/build/
Yaourt seems not to be able to delete it, so when trying to update (again) it will break operation on validating hashes.
Not sure if that's just a system quirk introduced by a crash or a yaourt specific problem (as it's unable to delete the broken file from its build directory on its own).
Anyhow: For me deleting the contents of the yaourt's build directory and the package build directories in /tmp solved this issue and I was able to update without any troubles!
Happy times! Though I think it's sufficient to only delete the files specific to the package that fails to upgrade.
Hope this could be of any use to someone.

Can you add a Troubleshooting section to https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Yaourt ?

[SOLVED]Yaourt and powerpill

Thanks for the reply Xiong. I tried the change of PacmanBin option to /usr/bin/pacman-color but yaourt refuses to use pacman-color (I have pacman-color installed). I tried setting up a ~/.yaourtrc file, but it also doesn't seem to work either. The problem must be yaourt completely ignoring the two setup files. Do you know if yaourt uses another setting file?
According to the yaourtrc man page, /etc/yaourtrc and /home/user/.yaourtrc are the only two options. How did you install it?
Also, you might want to move this into another thread, since it's no longer about powerpill.
I "moved" the question here cause I thought it was more appropriate here.
@Xiong: I installed yaourt using pacman, and I think there was an update which got installed while I was doing a full update a couple of days ago. With the yaourtrc, I just edited the one already present in the /etc/folder, just removing the # for commenting. For the ~/.yaourtrc I made to test, I just copied the yaourtrc in /etc/ over and changed the ownership so the non-su user had access. And still no success. Really needing help, cause I don't get what's wrong.:(

Why not try a

This way you remove all the config files for yaourt. And you can start over.
Birger
Try this and reinstalled yaourt twice, once using tar and makepkg and once using pacman, both times yaourt installed and still completely ignored /etc/yaourtrc . I'm getting tired of this, so I have for now got rid of yaourt, and am completely purging anything remotely yaourt-like, so I can start from scratch.
If anybody has any other suggestions please post it up so I can try this. I really like both tools and its a shame I can't combine the two like others have.

[Solved] yaourt and liblbxutil: not found on AUR?

When running yaourt I am receiving the following notice: liblbxutil: not found on AUR
Previous runs of yaourt did not produce this message. Where did the package go and how to fix?

NULL Value in Journal Entry and Wrong Tax Summary

Hi people,
I need your expert help for a big problem that appens to some customers.
They run SAP BO 8.8 SP:00 PL:12
This is the scenario:
You insert a new documet, A/R Invoice or A/P Invoice is the same, problem appear in all of them.
After you insert the document, using SQL Server Management try this Select statment:
Select * from JDT1 where JDT1.debit is null OR JDT1.credit is null
A list of record where listed. And, this is the problem, NULL values are all in the VAT Lines in debit or credit colums.
If you try to make a SUM(debit-credit) you discovery that, 1000,00-null=null
Consequently, TAX Sumary report, that probably use arithmetic operation like me in SELECT statment, count a wrong number when null values in DEBIT or CREDIT column in JDT1 for VAT declaration.
How could I solve? And how i can make invoices store 0 rather than NULL in the VAT Line?
Thanks in advance for your tips and solutions

Thaks Neetu for your answer.
I thinks there is a misurandertanding.
My problem is not SQL.
My problem is the SAP TAX Report.
I used SQL only for check data and discover why SAP raise a wrong TAX Summary report.
So, my question is: Why invoices write null values in journal entry, and how I can solve the problem that TAX summary report use null value in operations so the results are wrong.
Thanks,
Jonny Cortonicchi

kaeandcolesmon,
If you open the recovery drive (partition) it should only have a single folder (Recovery).
To make sure that your not saving restore points to that drive.
See:
Start, Control Panel, System, System Protection tab. Make sure the D drive partition is set to OFF so that it does not save there.

[Solved]Yaourt sync issue

I installed yaourt according to the instruction here http://archlinux.fr/yaourt-en
But when I run yaourt -Syu --devel --aur , I get an error: problem setting dbpath '//usr/local/var/lib/pacman/' (could not find or read directory)
The directory doesn't exist and pacman -v shows nothing related to that directory. What should I do?[]
Last edited by codetrick (2011-03-04 14:28:03)

I have the same problem. I get it when try to install 'package-query' and 'yaourt' from AUR, but i install it manually.
In INSTALL file of package-query I found interesting thing:
By default, `make install' installs the package's commands under
`/usr/local/bin', include files under `/usr/local/include', etc. You
can specify an installation prefix other than `/usr/local' by giving
`configure' the option `--prefix=PREFIX', where PREFIX must be an
absolute file name.
I uninstall yaourt and package-query using pacman and delete /usr/local directory (the system is fresh and this directory is not important)
Then i do
./configure --prefix=''
sudo make install
With yaourt i have more problems... Iven if you delete "/usr/local" from Makefile you don't solve the problem.
I find all "/usr/local" substrings in files from yaourt.x.x.x.tar.gz with commands:
tar -xzvf yaourt.x.x.x.tar.gz
cd yaourt.x.x.x
grep -RiHn 'usr/local/' *
and manually delete them.
Then i make and install my yaourt. It worked.
Oh, i know that it is unnormal, but i can't find anything in internet and write it to others.
P.S. I may install yaourt with this instruction^ http://archlinux.fr/yaourt-en (with pacman)

[SOLVED] yaourt -Syua wants to update a package which hasn't changed

I built a modest package, vi-vim-symlink, tested it extensively with pacman, and then uploaded it to AUR.
Recently some user reported that every time he runs yaourt, the package wants to be reinstalled. I installed yaourt and confirmed this behavior:
gecko:~~$ yaourt -Syua
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date

==> Package upgrade only (new release):

==> Continue upgrade ? [Y/n]
==> [V]iew package detail [M]anually select packages
==> --------------------------------------------------
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? The package is super simple and only creates a couple of symlinks, uninstalling vi, if necessary.

HalosGhost wrote:For starters, that pkgdesc is huge for no reason at all. Also, does that package actually work? Those symlinks don't look valid at all.
The package definitely works (I'm using it on several machines). The pkgdesc is lengthy because it's kind of an odd package, so I tried to explain the reason for it's existence. (This came after a lengthy forum discussion on the issue of most linux users expecting /usr/bin/vi and /usr/bin/view to actually be vim, and not Bill Joy vi.) If I were just packaging bottle.py or something like this my pkgdesc would be short.
Do you see anything which is an actual violation of the Arch Packaging Standards?
I'm still not entirely sure what this means or how this happened.
Looks like the source tarball was repackaged without having been sync'd
AUR wouldn't let me upload the package without a url; first I added a random url (one of my servers), then changed my mind and used the vim url -- this must have been when things got out of whack.

[SOLVED] yaourt doesnt search aur - new mirrror list

Hi
last night I discovered that yaourt doesnt search aur packages. I am guessing that it has something to do with last pacman upgrade and new mirror list.
Does anybody have the same problem with yaourt and could anybody explaine, step by step , what soud I do with new mirror list? I did not understand completely all steps that should be done with new mirror list. Thanks.

Try resetting it: hold the on/off and home buttons until you see the Apple logo (ignoring the off slider that appears first), and release. If that doesn't work, connect to iTunes, go to the Summary tab and Restore.

What are the versions of your pacman and yaourt?
There are some updates to all the pacman, yaourt and AUR web pages,
so can you try this:
1. upgrade pacman itself first
2. upgrade yaourt itself, then
3. and last, try full system upgrade.
These errors seem familiar, but I have no idea how it disappeared.
