(SOLVED) Problems resolving dependencies as fakeroot wit AUR

I downloaded the tsclient PKGBUILD and followed the AUR User Guidelines. Fakeroot is installed (I don’t use sudo) and makepkg.conf looks ok. When I issue makepkg I get the following errors. What is the proper way to deal with these buildtime dependencies?

@aniruddha i`m sorry if you didn’t understand the first error. just install sudo and add configure sudo to be used by your username.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: (SOLVED) Problems resolving dependencies as fakeroot wit AUR

Thanks for the quick replies! I really want to avoid sudo, and as far as I can tell it isn’t necessary: I rather use fakeroot instead. I wonder though why it doesn’t work

This will use sudo to install any dependencies, if the use of sudo is undesirable use fakeroot (see below) and don’t include the «-s» in the makepkg command.

Help installing BlackArch

So I am looking to add a nice array of security packages so I decided to give BlackArch a go. Unfortunately ever command run by it gives me a different error. Just looking to see if anyone else has an error like this.

The install instructions are clear except for this part:

When installing using the blackarch install script, please make sure the following repositories are enabled: core extra community multilib and lastly make sure to synchronize your pacman database with pacman -Sy or be fully up-to-date with your packages with pacman -Syu

What does it mean when it says ensure the repositories are enabled?

Here are the errors I am getting when running the build script:

==> ERROR: Cannot find the strip binary required for object file stripping.
==> ERROR: Cannot find the fakeroot binary required for building as non-root user.
==> ERROR: Cannot find the strip binary required for object file stripping.

How to Install Yay AUR Helper in Arch Linux and Manjaro

The tow commonly used AUR helpers in Arch Linux are Yaourt and Packer. You can easily use them for Arch Linux package management tasks such as installing and updating packages.

However, the two have been discontinued in favour of yay, short for Yet Another Yaourt. Yay is a modern AUR helper written in the GO language. It has very few dependencies and supports AUR tab-completion so that you don’t have to type the commands in full. Just type the first few letters and hit ENTER.

In this article, we demonstrate how you can install Yay AUR helper on Arch Linux or Manjaro which is based on Arch and see a few examples of how you can use Yay.

Installing Yay AUR Helper in Arch Linux and Manjaro

To start off, log in as a sudo user and run the command below to download the git package.

Install Git on Arch Linux

Next, clone the yay git repository.

Clone Yay Git Repository

Change the file permissions from the root the sudo user.

Set Permissions on Yay AUR Helper

To build the package from PKGBUILD, navigate into the yay folder.

Next, build the package using the makepkg command below.

How to Use Yay in Arch Linux and Manjaro

Once you have yay installed, you can upgrade all the packages on your system using the command.

To include development packages during the upgrade run.

As with any other AUR helpers, you can install the packages using the command.

To remove a package using yay use the command.

To clean up all unwanted dependencies on your system, issue the command.

If you want to print system statistics using yay, run.

And this sums up this brief tutorial on how you can install the yay AUR helper in Arch Linux and Manjaro.

Install Yay AUR Helper In Arch Linux, EndeavourOS, Manjaro

In this brief tutorial, we will see what is Yay AUR helper program, how to install Yay AUR helper in Arch Linux, EndeavourOS, Manjaro Linux, and finally how to install AUR packages using Yay package manager.

Yay — Yet another Yaourt, an AUR Helper written in Go

Yay, stands for yet another yaourt, is a reliable AUR helper written in GO language. It provides an interface for pacman and also it has almost no dependencies. It provides Yaourt like search feature and minimizes the user input greatly. Another notable feature is you can choose which application to install or update. Also, It supports AUR tab completion, so just type few letters of an AUR package and hit enter KEY to complete the name.

In the past, I was using Pacaur for installing AUR packages. It did a great job and I really liked it. I have also used some other AUR helpers such as Packer and Yaourt as well. But, they are all now discontinued and not recommended to use anymore. After reading the features of Yay, I thought to give «Yay» a try and see how it works. Let us get started!

Install Yay AUR Helper In Arch Linux, EndeavourOS, Manjaro

To install Yay on in Arch Linux and other Arch-based systems, run the following commands one by one.

Install AUR packages using Yay AUR helper

1. Like any other AUR helpers, the typical way to install a package from AUR is:

Example:

2. To search for a package in AUR and official repositories, use -Ss flag like below.

Sample output:

3. We can view information of a package in AUR or official repositories.

Sample output:

4. To update all packages from AUR and official repositories, use -Syu flag.

5. A good feature of yay is if you pass this command with no operation, then it will display menu for package install selection.

For instance, when I run the following command (Note that there is no operation specified), it shows me the menu for package selection.

I had to type a number to install the respective package. Also, we can specify multiple packages with space-separated.

6. To install any packages without confirmations (without user interventions, of course), use «—noconfirm» option.

7. To print the list of packages that needs to be updated, run:

Sample output:

8. To remove unwanted dependencies, use -Yc flag as shown below.

Sample output:

9. For more details about yay, refer man pages.

As far as I tested, Yay is fully functioning and works well. I think I am going to stick with Yay for a while.

Resource:

Update: A new AUR helper named Paru is released by the co-developer of Yay. Check out the following link for details.

SYNOPSIS

fakeroot works by replacing the file manipulation library functions (chmod(2), stat(2) etc.) by ones that simulate the effect the real library functions would have had, had the user really been root. These wrapper functions are in a shared library /usr/lib/*/libfakeroot-*.so or similar location on your platform. The shared object is loaded through the LD_PRELOAD mechanism of the dynamic loader. (See ld.so(8))

If you intend to build packages with fakeroot, please try building the fakeroot package first: the «debian/rules build» stage has a few tests (testing mostly for bugs in old fakeroot versions). If those tests fail (for example because you have certain libc5 programs on your system), other packages you build with fakeroot will quite likely fail too, but possibly in much more subtle ways.

Also, note that it’s best not to do the building of the binaries themselves under fakeroot. Especially configure and friends don’t like it when the system suddenly behaves differently from what they expect. (or, they randomly unset some environment variables, some of which fakeroot needs).

OPTIONS

EXAMPLES

Only the effects that user joost could do anyway happen for real.

fakeroot was specifically written to enable users to create Debian GNU/Linux packages (in the deb(5) format) without giving them root privileges. This can be done by commands like dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot or debuild -rfakeroot (actually, -rfakeroot is default in debuild nowadays, so you don’t need that argument).

SECURITY ASPECTS

FILES

ENVIRONMENT

LIMITATIONS

or the other way around,

fakeroot has no way of knowing that in the first case, the owner of foo really should be joost while the second case it should have been root. For the Debian packaging, defaulting to giving all «unknown» files uid=gid=0, is always OK. The real way around this is to wrap open() and create(), but that creates other problems, as demonstrated by the libtricks package. This package wrapped many more functions, and tried to do a lot more than fakeroot . It turned out that a minor upgrade of libc (from one where the stat() function didn’t use open() to one with a stat() function that did (in some cases) use open()), would cause unexplainable segfaults (that is, the libc6 stat() called the wrapped open(), which would then call the libc6 stat(), etc). Fixing them wasn’t all that easy, but once fixed, it was just a matter of time before another function started to use open(), never mind trying to port it to a different operating system. Thus I decided to keep the number of functions wrapped by fakeroot as small as possible, to limit the likelihood of ‘collisions’.

GNU configure (and other such programs) fakeroot, in effect, is changing the way the system behaves. Programs that probe the system like GNU configure may get confused by this (or if they don’t, they may stress fakeroot so much that fakeroot itself becomes confused). So, it’s advisable not to run «configure» from within fakeroot. As configure should be called in the «debian/rules build» target, running «dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot» correctly takes care of this.
