Arch Linux Review [20190701 Bootstrap Image] Supplement: Package Management

July 29, 2019, 6 p.m.

Package management on Arch is primarily focused on the minimal pacman package manager to manage packages in the default Arch repositories or custom user repositories. It also involves, optionally, using Arch's integrated tools to build packages from PKGBUILD files from the Arch User Repository. Below are examples of package management actions mentioned in Arch Linux Review [20190701 Bootstrap Image].

pacman and shell tools

Also, there are cases where pacman's built in commands may not be able to provide the information or perform the task users want. For these situations it is beneficial for a user to have some experience with GNU/Linux or Unix, and tools these provide especially grep and the shell control operator |. For example, to remove orphan packages,

pacman -Rns $(pacman -Qtdqt)
, a command is used as the input of another command. Or to find available Nvidia drivers for the available Linux kernels
pacman -Ss linux | grep -A2 nvidia
the output of a pacman command is used as an input to grep. And lastly,
comm -23 <(pacman -Qqt | sort) <(pacman -Sqg base base-devel | sort)
, shown with its output below, lists all installed packages not required by other packages, and which are not in the base or base-devel groups.

AUR

One significant feature of Arch package management is managing packages from the AUR. Although this repository is not supported officially by the distribution, it is useful for users as many third party programs are available here but not in the official repositories, for example the Google Chrome, Firefox Beta, and Vivaldi browsers, Microsoft's Visual Studio Code, and many themes are only available here. There are also many more obscure packages in the AUR that unfortunately may lead to breakages. I've expereinced this with some random lua library I used to make an aswesone conky. With the exception of these types of poorly maintained packages, the AUR is useful.

But since Arch doesn't support it officially in pacman, some manual steps are necessary to install packages from the AUR. The three step process is to

  1. Obtain the PKGBUILD from the AUR website or by cloning the AUR package's git repository which is indicated on the package's page on the AUR
  2. Examine all files to ensure there is no malicious content.
  3. If using the git repository, clone the repository. If the PKGBUILD is obtained some other way, create a directory for the PKGBUILD and other files needed for the particular package, not automatically retrived when the PKGBUILD file is used by makepkg.
  4. From the new directory created for the PKGBUILD or the directory created when cloning the git repo, run
    makepkg -sic
This process, as terminal commands and output, is shown below from my installation of Google Chrome from the AUR using the above process.
