A manual rebuild of yay easily fixed this. that's a common and expected behaviour - packages like yay, installed locally from AUR (basically your own private binary repo) will never be in-sync with Arch package repositories. > However, I am wondering if there is any way how to make such an update > smoother, so that yay would be rebuilt in the same step after pacman was > updated and avoid the necessity for a manual rebuild? as things stand now, not easily, perhaps you can edit your yay PKGBUILD to have a depends on "libalpm.so=14" so that pacman will warn you that updating the library will break the package. but then you'd still need to fix things manually. -- damjan
