Use pacman to install all gstreamer plugins quickly

I figure pacman is a great tool created by great people.  Is there a way to install a whole lot of packages that are similar, like gstreamer plugins for example, quickly, without typing each one individually?

That doesn't quite work, Allan. The output of pacman -Ssq pkgname shows the size of the package also.
> pacman -Ssq gstreamer0.10
gstreamer0.10 [2.15 MB]
gstreamer0.10-bad [1.02 MB]

  • Using pacman to install kernel

    How automatic is it to use pacman -S kernel to install kernel? Does uname -r relect new kernel afterwards? I'm using kernel 6.10 with grub. Do I have to adjust grub for the new kernel?

    uname -r is going to give you the name of the running kernel - if you upgrade your kernel doesn't suddenly stop and load the new one unless you reboot.
    With grub, no you don't need to change anything, it will be fine (with lilo, you'd need to rerun lilo)
    and it's pacman -S kernel26
    One thing to note: when you upgrade the kernel, it will remove your old modules and the whole directory, which is found through "uname -r" - if you upgrade your kernel, and then try to modprobe something, it will fail (yet running modules will remain running)... so I'd recommend rebooting asap when you upgrade the kernel

  • Using pacman to install packages into a seperate root

    After working with an Arch Linux machine for 1-2 years I switched jobs and was given a Mac, which I've enjoyed so far.
    I would, however, like to switch back to Arch Linux but there's something that I've been able to do on Mac OS X using its unofficial package manager Homebrew (http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/) which I was wondering if it were possible with pacman.
    Typically you have one installation of Homebrew, at /usr/local, and by running 'brew' (/usr/local/brew) it knows that its root is at /usr/local & looks there for all dependencies & installs packages there. If, however, you install homebrew elsewhere (could be the first or a second installation), for instance ~/sw, then running brew from there will install packages in that root.
    I've found this very useful to install package specific to a project I'm working on (specific vendor & version of DB, specific web server etc) without having to install them globally on my system and at the same time without having to resort to installing everything by hand (including dipendencies).
    Is this possible with Pacman?
    Thanks in advance,
    Dale

    4. Sync pacman:
    pacman --root /opt/arch32 --cachedir /opt/arch32/var/cache/pacman/pkg --config /opt/arch32/pacman.conf -Sy
    5. Install the base and optionally base-devel groups:
    pacman --root /opt/arch32 --cachedir /opt/arch32/var/cache/pacman/pkg --config /opt/arch32/pacman.conf -S base base-devel

  • Pacman Errors: Installing ndiswrapper

    I'm currently installing Arch-Linux on my laptop, and everything has gone well. But, I am having a little trouble using Pacman to install Ndiswrapper on my machine. I first attempted to install it, and it appeared to download all the dependencies and packages. It then spit out a huge error, and when I attempted to install once again - I got the same error:

    I'm not quite sure what to think of this. I was hoping someone would know a way I can resolve this from happening?
    Any information will be much appreciated.
    Thank you!

    Welp, I've come to the conclusion that I am either doing something wrong, or that my installation source (USB flash drive) somehow is corrupt.
    I've been avoiding removing the 'asm' symbolic link on my laptop and everything has been going pretty smoothly, but today I decided to install Arch on my desktop computer. I have a Nvidia card and when installing the drivers using Pacman, it runs into conflicts - just like it did when trying to download and install Ndiswrapper.
    So, thinking that the asm problem was isolated to my laptop, I went ahead and deleted the symbolic link:
    rm /usr/lib/klibc/include/asm
    I then list the contents of the 'include' directory and the 'asm-x86' directory is still there and the symbolic link is removed. Perfect.
    So I reboot and everything goes smoothy. I install the Nvidia drivers and then decide to examine my 'include' directory again. Oddly enough, the 'asm-x86' directory is gone, and a new directory called 'asm' exists! It appears to have all the same files within. As I expected, I reboot and it drops me into the ramfs command prompt with very limited commands. Now I am not sure if the above is the reason why this keeps happening to me, but it is just something I noticed that changes.
    I got curious, loaded Arch from my USB drive, mounted my root partition and then tried to recreate the original directory structure, but no go.
    Pacman is awesome and makes things so much easier to install. I'd hate to have to avoid it for certain important installations. If anyone has some updates for me, or any kind of advice - I'd greatly appreciate it.
    Thank you.

  • Using pacman

    i recently installed arch, and have managed to install wireless tools and connect to my wireless. now, when i try using pacman to install new packages, i get the following error mesage:
    error failed retrieving file "core.db.tar.gz" from "..." : Transient resolver failure
    the ... contains a URL, and this message is repeated several times with different URLs. can any1 help?

    like this
    /etc/resolv.conf
    # Generated by dhcpcd from wlan0
    # /etc/resolv.conf.head can replace this line
    domain lan
    nameserver xxx.xxx.x.xxx
    # /etc/resolv.conf.tail can replace this line
    the Xs represent what looks like to be something similar to my ip address

  • Reinstalling all installed packages using pacman

    I feel my installation is corrupted .volcontrol muted on every boot,nautilus crashing,etc and more.
    So,I though of reinstalling whole Gnome-2.22
    I got below script somewhere in this forum or wiki maybe:but the script is erring out :?
    please help !
    pacman -S $(pacman -Qq | grep -v "$(pacman -Qmq)")
    and got the below error message
    error: no targets specified (use -h for help)
    Last edited by praka123 (2008-04-24 14:47:47)

    Run the command pacman -Qq and pacman -Qmq separately and try to find out why it breaks.
    pacman -Q displays all packages, pacman -Qm displays the packages that are not in any repos, that is the packages you installed manually == foreign packages. You can't reinstall these foreign packages with pacman -S by definition.
    So you have to filter them out of pacman -Q output.
    pacman -S $(pacman -Qq) fails here, because I have 3 foreign packages, but  pacman -S $(pacman -Qq | grep -v "$(pacman -Qmq)") works.

  • Can you auto install deps when using pacman -U package.tar.gz

    I have built a few packages from AUR on one of my systems. I would like to install those packages on other systems. pacman -U package.tar.gz will fail if there are unsatisfied dependencies. I have been using pacman -S --asdep dep1 dep2 ...  to install the dependencies. Then pacman -U completes successfully. 
    Is there some way to do this with a single command that I am looking over?

    Okay great. That will be a nice addition.
    I'm 2 days into Arch moving from Gentoo.  Not missing portage at all
    Thanks for the quick reply Allan!

  • Pacman to show all the files inside a package that is not installed

    Can pacman list out all the files that any packages provides without having that package installed? I learned that pacman -Ql linux does this but the linux packages is installed on my system. Thanks!

    I am trying to use it but it doesn't work right with my options. I want to find any package that gives a directory called "russian" but it isn't finding one I know does called "festvox-ru" as I show you:
    % pkgfile -svid russian
    extra/licq 1.7.1-5 /usr/share/licq/translations/RUSSIAN
    community/gnustep-base 1.24.5-2 /usr/lib/GNUstep/Libraries/gnustep-base/Versions/1.24/Resources/Languages/Russian
    community/lout 3.40-1 /usr/lib/lout/include/russian
    community/nltk-data 2.0-7 /usr/share/nltk_data/corpora/stopwords/russian
    community/rawtherapee 1:4.0.11-1 /usr/share/rawtherapee/languages/Russian
    Here you see the "russian" directory inside my filesystem with that package:
    /usr/share/festival/voices/russian

  • Better to install PyPI packages using pacman or pip?

    In Haskell, I ran into dependency issues when I had xmonad installed using pacman
    and other packages installed using cabal.
    Might a similar thing happen if I installed some PyPI packages (virtualenv, pymongo)
    using pacman instead of pip?
    My reason for wanting to install with pacman is that I'd be more likely to keep the
    packages up to date - they'd be tied to the rest of my system, and there's no simple
    command to upgrade all packages in pip.

    IMO, you should choose which method works best for you and stick with it.
    If you use a 3rd party package manager, you should stick with it.
    Or if you use pacman, you should stick with it.
    http://sherlock.heroku.com/blog/2012/04 … -managers/
    Towards the end I mention I don't really know much about pip and would investigate on how it works.
    But as a general rule, I would say to try out the 3rd party package manager first and see if it works.
    I would also recommend doing per user installs (install to $HOME) to keep files managed by pacman separated from files installed with the 3rd party package manager.
    Cabal and Gem imo are both superior to using packages provided in the supported repositories for the reasons outlined in my blog post.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers!

  • HT1926 Why ,when Itry to install the latest update for iTunes does it say that my iTunes signature is "invalid" when I have used this same computer for years and have installed all the previous updates? Thank you.

    Why, when I try to install the latest iTunes update, itsays that I have an "invalid" signature...I have used this same machine and have installed all the previous updates with no problem.

    That one suggests the installer has gotten damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?
