Hi, it might not be related to your issue, however, when updating AUR packages, an AUR helper might build packages in lexical order, but not in the order they need to be build. For example, there might be an update for a-foo and b-bar. Since b-bar is a dependency of a-foo, there's the need to first build b-bar and after that a-foo against b-bar, but an AUR helper might build a-foo first and then b-bar. IOW a-foo is build against the outdated b-bar and after that b-bar is updated, hence a-foo is build against a version of b-bar that isn't installed anymore. Regards, Ralf
Hi Ralf, just to focus on my problem, I've already used "pikaur -Sa --asdeps cctag", so while this behaviour might be possible depending on the AUR helper, it shouldn't be a problem in this case. Also, devil2 isn't available from the AUR - probably there's a typo in the dependency, as a package "community/devil 1.8.0-5" exists? However, I could manage to start the build (because of confusion about the -S option I had set the directory path incorrectly; fixed now), but after compilation the Ninja build system generator does not find the build directory: pkgdir = ~/.cache/pikaur/build/cctag/pkg/cctag ninja: Entering directory `build' ninja: fatal: chdir to 'build' - No such file or directory The first line is created by an echo instruction added as the first line of the "package()" function - this looks quite weird, what would be the correct path? Kind regards, Peter
