New to Arch with problems with AUR

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Hi list !

First i present myself. My name is Mario and i was reading this list
for a few weeks.
I'm coming from Debian, and i have to say that Arch was the first
distro that replaced it in my computer. Arch rocks, it gives a really
updated and stable kde desktop. Yes, it's a little hard to configure,
but one can learn with it.
And the AUR system was one of the main reasons for me to change.

I was trying to install some programs from AUR, and it worked in some cases.
But in many other cases, the programs do not compile. And i talk about
programs with so much votes.

For instance, i couldn't compile shaman. Actually i can't compile aqpm
or libaqpm, wich is a dependency of shaman, and it isn't in the pacman
repositories.

So, in general, how must i face these problems ?
Do i have to post errors in the AUR pages ?
Is it always so common to have problems in building AUR packages ?

By the way, i will stay with Arch. I like it's descentralized package
philosophy.

Thank you
