Yaourt -Syu = "missing dependencies: linuy-firmwake" KINDA [SOLVED]

This has to be some kind of error. linuy-firmwake must mean linux-firmware, right?
I hate to give so few details, but I don't know what else to post. I recently discovered a bad RAM stick. Its been removed.
Now when i enter yaourt -Syu or yaourt -Syy, i get these two phantom dependencies.
Boot also hangs, but if i "alt f2" I can log in.
Thoughts?

No missing dependencies when using pacman. I don't even know where to start on this one.
Nothing seems to be broken, so its not that big a deal, just annoying. I'm kind of OCD and can't stand little anomalies like this.

[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
community 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.

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.

If you go to the AUR page, you'll see that there's a solution there. yaourt is a great tool, but I would get in the habit of knowing what you are downloading before you use it.

It's quite simple. When the AUR package was created, the current version of Aptana was 1.0, but the source url links to the latest version. This was all ok until they released version 1.1 because then you suddenly have a completely new file that gets downloaded and because of this is will fail the md5 check.
It's very simple to fix though, in one of two ways. Either just delete the md5sum=() array (changing pkgver=1.0 to pkgver=1.1 would also be a good idea), or download the PKGBUILD and in the same directory as you store it just run makepkg -g and replace the md5sum array with the resulting data (this would be the best way to handle this...).

[SOLVED][AUR] lib32-allegro Missing dependencies...

Hello community...
still on my first week on ArchLinux so bear with me...
i find this strange...
im trying to install a game Beat Hazard Ultra (i have the bin file)
and beathazardultra can be found in the aur (game separated)
i looked at the PKBUILD for instructions and it says to put the bin in the same folder
OK i got that part
then sudo makepkg -s --asroot
it says its missing lib32-allegro
this lib can only be found in AUR so i repeat the same procedure
NOW, the lib32-allegro is also Missing dependencies
when i sudo makepkg -s --asroot
i search the aur of the missing dependencies and found it...
i makepkg all of them and they installed
so now im ready to install lib32-allegro again... but its still saying that its missing the same dependecies... am i missing a step here?
heres a screenshot:
(*EDIT: i know the screenshot says i used sudo makepkg -f --asroot but i also tried it with -s but it cannot find it on the official repo since its in AUR)
http://i.imgur.com/ijK67Kf.png

Last edited by FenrirAB (2014-04-18 01:10:45)

the screenshot was to visually provide info that i have the aur packages (and assuming that the highlighted directories have been installed)
sorry, i suck at explaining so i hope the screenshot will provide clarity.... yup already enabled multilib... and i can see it enabled by -Syu
i know they gave me a warning about using --asroot isnt that what to use if you have a separate /root /home folder if you want to install it in /root? but if its not then... i will stop using it... ^-^
anyways
i already rebooted my laptop just in case it needed a reboot to see the lib32 dependencies... but they are still missing
i would like to know why those dependencies are still missing...
THANKS FOR BEING PATIENT ^_^

[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

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.

It no longer shows the installed packages list, just counting in one line "Foreign packages: \ 103 / 103" and exit without updating. Is this normal?

How to install missing dependencies?

I'm trying to install Mailpile (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mailpile/)
these are showing as missing dependencies when I "makepkg -s"
python2-pgpdump
spambayes>=1.1a6
I got the above two from AUR and "makepkg -s" successfully and then stuck them in /usr/local/bin but it didn't solve the dependencies. I'm not sure I know what I'm doing. Anybody know how to get Mailpile installed?
Last edited by bzpnbx (2014-10-14 15:48:51)

You did run it on the built package, right? Not on the AUR tarball?
Like Wormzy said, you really need to read the AUR Wiki page.
nomorewindows wrote:I don't think you even need --asdeps. It just installs them as any other package. Then when they install, makepkg -s the main package.
These packages are being installed because they are dependencies of another package. For pacman to function correctly, --asdeps is needed. If you omit it, pacman thinks they're explicitly installed and will not remove them when the main package is removed nor list them in -Qdt.

Can't install Dropbox from AUR due to missing dependencies.

I'm posting in the Newbie Corner, since I suspect that this is a newbie issue with a really simple solution..
I've been using Dropbox for Linux directly from Dropbox.com, but I had now decided to convert to the AUR version (easier to update). But it won't install. It won't even build.
==> Manglende avhengigheter:
-> qt
==> Kontrollerer avhengigheter som trengs under bygging...
==> FEIL: Kunne ikke finne alle avhengigheter.
==> ERROR: Makepkg was unable to build bbox-git.
==> Restart building bbox-git ? [y/N]
Not optimal that this is in norwegian.. But in essence it tells me that there are missing dependencies. Qt to be exact. And because of this makepkg is not able to build bbox-git. Earlier in the process (when the dependencies for bbox-git is listed) it says that qt is not installed and will be buildt from AUR. I've tried to reinstall qt. Please help.
EDIT:
I'm using Yaourt.

If this is the package you actually want, it looks like it hasn't been updated since the qt packaged was renamed qt4, so you'll need to change that in the PKGBUILD file by hand.
It is the package you're linking to I'm having trouble installing. Okay, I'll have a look. Later. I'll get back to this thread.

My new problem is that I get alot of CRC errors now when installing biggers things ( Like most games for example). Before I switched one of the memory sticks to purple I didnt seem to have these problems since I managed to install a few games ( Painkiller, warcraft 3 FT, battlefield 2 for example) but now with the sticks in green and purple Im having problems installing most games ( Got crc error on painkiller expansion, farcry, cold fear for example. however I got empire earth 2 to get installed).
Ive hard this problem could be cause of an faulty hard disk but Ive used both of the ones I have installed right now in my old computer and they worked perfectly there.
Anyone got any suggestion on what the problem can be?
I would get extremely happy if someone could help me fix this problem.

What hard drive do you have? Can you put these specifics in your sig. Anyway, when games freeze after 20 minutes its either not enough juice from the power supply...(I have a tagan but its a 480w u22 with 12v@30a) OR, its high temps. What are your temps?
Second, do you have "matched pair" of ram or did you buy them separately.
EDIT: What are your drivers for the video card too, are you using the latest ones from nvidia?
Quote from: TexasRudy on 05-August-05, 00:33:21
The manual does state to fill up the green slots before using the purple slots. I've noticed the memory dimms are fickle as well. I was having issues with the memory slots.
Put the memory in slots 1 and 3 first and see what happens.
TR, you will miss the benefit of dual channel, I made this same mistake but it is talked about greatly on this forum. If you have matched pairs, then either slots 1&2 or 3&4 are the best combinations for dual channel. Just my 2 cents.

Removed Missing Dependencies Missing Features, reanalyzed, now 9x more Missing Dependencies....

I'm using the excellent Phil Childs get-scripts Powershell scripts to clear out some Missing Dependencies. There were Missing Feature, MissingSetupFile, and MissingAssembly referencences, all related to the same wsp that is no longer in use and
was retracted. http://get-spscripts.com/2011/06/removing-features-from-content-database.html
I removed some Missing Features, reanalyzed, and the 15 item Missing Dependencies list, instead of shrinking, is now at 134 items.
I’m going to try and figure out cause before I start chugging through these. Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
Are these new 134 error messages different from orginal 15 error messages?
We need to check each error message description and do as error message content suggests to solve the issue (e.g. may find the webparts referenced this custom feature and remove unwanted web part from the page).
More articles about the missing dependencies you can take a look.

Exaile - missing gnome-python-extras problem [SOLVED]

Hi,
Until last week i was able to fetch lyrics with exaile, but something broke it, and now exaile is complaining about missing gnome-python-extras. I have installed both libgtkhtml and gnome-python-extras:
$ pacman -Qs gnome-python-extras libgtkhtml exaile
local/gnome-python-extras 2.14.3-1
Gnome Python interfaces for libraries not part of the core platform
local/libgtkhtml 2.11.1-1
An HTML library for GTK
local/exaile 0.2.11-1
Exaile is a media player aiming to be similar to KDE's AmaroK, but for GTK+
Reinstall didn't help. Any ideas?
Last edited by lman (2008-02-23 20:44:35)

Hi,
thanks for the tip. It kinda solved the problem.
I can see now the lyrics and the other tabs, but there is just a button that says, that 'open browser' and a link next to it. And when I try to open the information tab again exaile dies. I suppose that's another bug.
So now I'm trying to build the whole xulrunner from abs as I'm writing. I'm not really familiar with bug reporting, but if it still isn't working, I will report it.
Anyway, here is the bug report from bug buddy: http://lmanweb.extra.hu/gecko-bugreport.txt
EDIT: After installing xulrunner from abs exaile won't die, but it still don't load the pages within the tabs, and the wiki plugin still doesn't work
EDIT2: OK, i reported it: bug ID 9660

Ignore missing dependencies

Hello
I have some parts of the gnome suite installed that enable me to use some of their features, however, I have force removed a fair few other aspects of the gnome suite. Whenever I upgrade my system, Pacman prompts that some of my packages are missing dependencies, is there anyway to ignore this or stop Pacman from warning me?
Any help is greatly appreciated

karol wrote:* you can rebuild the gnome suite w/o the unwanted dependencies
or
* you can create some dummy pkgs that don't provide any files but pacman thinks that all dependencies are satisfied
Thanks karol, how might one go about creating these dummy packages?
