  • Install from AUR pkgbuild returned error, now the cloned package cannot be deleted
    1 project | /r/linux4noobs | 12 Feb 2023
    Making first steps in Arch installed on VirtualBox (kernel version 6.1.11-arch1-1), on day three I stumbled upon the following case: I have a Gnome Shell extensions browser (FF) add-on installed and running as expected until indicator for Arch Linux updates in GNOME Shell extension failed because of pacman-contrib dependency not satisfied. I tried to install pacman-contrib and can see it listed, but the extension was still unusable for the same reason. So I checked the github page of the project and as you can see, there a link to AUR package is provided: https://github.com/RaphaelRochet/arch-update
