Damn, that game’s still going, eh? (/j)
Originally it was called puckman, but they changed it because it would have been too easy to vandalize people’s arch installations
You win!
going full open source 😎
pacman is my favorite game on Arch.
This is exciting! Can’t wait to kill my install by trying to upgrade!
I mean you don’t really use Arch if you don’t bork it once in a while. :)
That’s a very pleasant word for a horrible experience I keep doing to myself.
NVidia borks my installation sometimes. Then my stupidity to choose the non-dkms beta driver from the AUR. But all in all, my non-NVidia-devices (server, workstation and laptop) run fine on arch testing, updated every time I use one of those devices.
You can run pacman on Windows?
It’s called Ms. PacMan over there
Clever.
yes (msys2) except it will never bork your windows install unlike on arch.
Kinda. One of the Linux “wrappers” (I’m a bit tired and can’t think of the correct term here, bear with me) that lets you utilize some Linux utilities on Windows, maybe it was mingw or cygwin, actually uses pacman as their package manager IIRC.
msys2.
Yep that’s the one, thanks!
If anything, i would expect packagekit frontends to break. If you use pacman as intended, you’ll be just fine

- On Linux systems, ensure the download process does not write outside the download directory
What does that mean “On Linux systems”? Pacman is available for non Linux systems?
The MSYS2 environment on Windows uses pacman as well.
Pacman was birthed from the Arch ecosystem, but it’s built to be generalized so any project can use it if they choose.
arch = base.tarball[0] + pacman [0] 90% similar to all other linux tarballs

Can you do makepkg in the clone of yay PKGBUILD from aur? That seems like a better solution than symlinking…
This is the correct thing to do when it breaks, recompile and link against the new libs. Otherwise you could see funny behaviour.
