If there are update related errors that you do not understand, do not panic

|
||||||
-Pacman commands:
|
If you get an error similar to `could not unlock database` when trying to
|
||||||
"pacman -Syy" update repositories
|
issue a command that means that another program is using the package manager.
|
||||||
"pacman -Su" update packages
|
If you feel like taking the risk of breaking your system try manually (and forcefully)
|
||||||
"pacman -Qdtq" list unused/orphan packages
|
removing the transaction lock file by issuing `rm -rf /var/lib/pacman/db.lck`
|
||||||
"pacman -R" remove a package
|
|
||||||
"pacman -S" install a package
|
|
||||||
"pacman -R $(pacman -Qdtq)" remove unused packages
|
|
||||||
"pacman -Rns" remove packages and its dependencies recursively
|
|

"pacman -Rcs" remove packages and its dependents recursively

"pacman -Qc" view package changelog

"pacman -Qm" list packages not present in official repositories
|
|

If you panic just do "sudo pacman -Syy" and then "sudo pacman -Su"
|
|
||||||
"rm -rf /var/lib/pacman/db.lck" remove pacman's transaction lock file
|
|
||||||
(to solve "could not unlock database" error, which happen when pacman is already running)
|
|
||||||
NOTE: If all of a sudden everything is fucked up bad (like no GUI whatsowever)
|
|
||||||
check the pacman log at "/var/log/pacman.log" to see what went wrong and what got removed
|
|
||||||
To manage and download packages from the AUR use:
|
|
||||||
pikaur: https://github.com/actionless/pikaur#installation
|
|
||||||
yaourt (unmantained)
|
|
||||||
These are all wrappers which means they extend some functionalities of pacman to use
|
|
||||||
AUR, for example updating and installing packages (-Syu and -S)
|
|
||||||
NOTE: pacman wrappers don't need to be run as root since it's dangerous to
|
|
||||||
run PKGBUILD as such.
|
|
||||||
Pacman GUI frontends:
|
|
||||||
"pamac" based on gtk and it is the same GUI frontend in the gnome and KDE releases
|
|
||||||
of manjaro, to install use the package "pamac-aur" or "pamac-aur-git" from the AUR.
|
|
||||||
"octopi" is a lightweight GUI frontend for pacman and it is one of the most used ones
|
|
||||||
although it isn't as visually appealing as pamac and requires a gtk sudo permission
|
|
||||||
package such as "blank don't remember"
|
|
||||||
Ranking mirrors based on speed:
|
|
||||||
|
|

In the unfortunate event that all of a sudden everything fucked up bad
|
||||||

(like no xorg or wayland or login session ...),

check the pacman log at `/var/log/pacman.log` to see what went wrong and what got removed

`export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland`

If facing compiling errors in zerynth, manually recompile the compiler for the board in ""~/.zerynth2/sys"

If you are facing compiling errors in zerynth, one option is to manually

||||||
for example replacing the xtensa-lx106 compiler (esp8266) goes:
|
recompile the compiler for the board/platform. Compilers are locarted at

||||||
1-Move the old compiler folder somewhere safe (~/.zerynth2/sys/xtensa-lx106)
|
`~/.zerynth2/sys` +
|
||||||
2-Clone and compile (as standalone) new compiler in a temporary folder, guide here -> "http://domoticx.com/sdk-esp8266-xtensa-architecture-toolchain/"
|
For example to replace the `xtensa-lx106` compiler: (esp8266)
|
||||||
3-Move the newly created compiler folder (xtensa-lx106-elf) in ~/.zerynth2/sys and rename it as the original one (xtensa-lx106/)
