[SOLVED]PKGBUILD does not exist

Hello Arch Forums. I recently downloaded a zip file from the AUR and extracted it in my home folder. I attempted to install it after reading the related part in the Arch Wiki:

Installing packages from the AUR is a relatively simple process. Essentially:

Acquire the tarball which contains the PKGBUILD and possibly other required files
Extract the tarball (preferably in a folder set aside just for builds from the AUR)
Run makepkg in the directory where the files are saved («makepkg -s» will auto-resolve dependencies with pacman)

However when I get to the part about running makepkg I get an error saying: PKGBUILD does not exist. I’ve refered to the pkgbuild section and the makepkg section. What am I missing?

Re: [SOLVED]PKGBUILD does not exist

You don’t need to download the tarball or worry about most of that. Just get the PKGBUILD from the AUR page, and run makepkg in the same directory as where you save it.

Unless the PKGBUILD calls an install file or some other resource that may be included in the tarball…

Re: [SOLVED]PKGBUILD does not exist

Actually it is a zip file. I downloaded the archey zip file. So you are saying that I don’t need to extract it I just need to download the file and run makepkg in the right directory?

Re: [SOLVED]PKGBUILD does not exist

There is no zip file on the Archey AUR page: it is a tar.gz file…

archey (AUR) is fine ( tar.gz, PKGBUILD included ), so .. Try again

Download archey.tar.gz and extract it or just download the PKGBUILD (since there are no extra files)

mkdir /tmp/build_archey
cd /tmp/build_archey
wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/ar/archey/PKGBUILD
makepkg -s

Re: [SOLVED]PKGBUILD does not exist

Hmm. Ok so instead I ran wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/arch … ey3.tar.gz. Then then tar xfvz archey3.tar.gz and then cd’d to archey3 and ran makepkg. Then ran pacman. Thanks for the fast responses everyone.

Re: [SOLVED]PKGBUILD does not exist

I hate to bring up an old topic and I assure you all that I’ve done the proper reading, but this just doesn’t make any sense. I am trying to install a package from the AUR and I downloaded the tarball. I then ran tar xfvz ‘aforementioned package’. The I cd’d to the folder that was created and ran makepkg. I get the same error as I did before: PKGBUILD does not exist. I don’t understand why every package has a special way to install it.

It doesn’t. You’re either (1) doing it wrong, or (2) the package is broken. Check for (2), but my money’s on (1).

Re: [SOLVED]PKGBUILD does not exist

The method I mentioned worked for the archey package. So if every package is installed the same way than this should work just fine.

View Full Version : can’t install cairo-dock from AUR

stonecoldjha

February 5th, 2009, 04:23 PM

i downloaded two packages(tar.gz)(one is cairo-dock and the other is cairo-dock plugins) from
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15201 and
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=15202

i copied them over to a directory in my home folder called builds_AUR,and extracted them.then i opened up a terminal and did the following to install,but failed to do so:

[sonujha@arch ~]$ cd builds_AUR
[sonujha@arch builds_AUR]$ makepkg
==> ERROR: PKGBUILD does not exist.
[sonujha@arch builds_AUR]$

i have already installed the necessary tools by:

$sudo pacman -Sy base-devplease tell me if i am missing something.How do i proceed with the installation?

You need to extract the tar.gz to your current folder, then edit the PKGBUILD to your liking, then build it with makepkg.

Why don’t you just use yaourt? It does it for you automatically. See the Wiki for more info.

i installed cairo-dock and plugins using yaourt,but how do i launch it.its not there in applications>preferences
n ubuntu i have it in applications>sytem tools>cairo-dock.also,in ubuntu,i can launch it by the command «cairo-dock».but,even after installing from the AUR using yaourt i can neither launch it,nor can i find it in applications>system tools or anywhere in the menu.how do i see if it got properly installed?aren’t there other ways of installing it?

stonecoldjha

February 6th, 2009, 04:30 AM

i just did the following,and learnt that cairo-dock is not there:

[sonujha@arch ~]$ sudo pacman -Si cairo-dock
error: package ‘cairo-dock’ was not found
[sonujha@arch ~]$

what do i do now?how do i install it?please help me install it because i need it and like it so much.

Did you install cairo-wglitz before cairo-dock?

pacman -Rd cairo
yaourt -S compiz-wglitz

February 6th, 2009, 05:46 AM

ok,i got that.but,now again it did not succeed as you can see:

type

makepkg -cs
That pulls in the dependencies and builds the package.

or just use yoaurt, as reccomended. That’s even easier.

i just did the following,and learnt that cairo-dock is not there:

[sonujha@arch ~]$ sudo pacman -Si cairo-dock
error: package ‘cairo-dock’ was not found
[sonujha@arch ~]$

what do i do now?how do i install it?please help me install it because i need it and like it so much.

-Si searches for and displays information about a specif package in the repos (cairo-dock.pkg.tar.gz in this case). Since you’re installing it from the AUR, it won’t be there.

Try this (doesn’t need to be as root):

pacman -Qi cairo-dock

That will search your local package database. If you want to do a more open ended search (keywords) use -Ss for the repos and -Qs for your local database.

the following is the output:

i have tried installing cairo-dock several times using
#yaourt -S cairo-dock
saying yes to all the questions that i am asked while installation.
when it seems to be completed,i run
$cairo-dock
but the i get the output «command not found» .

please tell me what should i do?

stonecoldjha

February 6th, 2009, 12:13 PM

i somehow managed to install cairo-dock and plugins,but i removed all icons from the dock,and was left with a blank dock,and i was unable to add new icons to it.so,i decided to tremove cairo-dock and then reinstall it.but,after reinstalling,when i launched cairo-dock i saw the same theme and the same blank dock that i was using last time.
now,please tell me the way to completely obliterate cairo-dock,purging,everything,be it config files,etc. so that when i reinstall it,it behaves as if it is being installed for the very first time,and doesn’t take settings that i made in the last install.

stonecoldjha: You *really* need to spend some time digging through the wiki and the forums. The documentation is quite thorough and covers most of the issues you have raised recently.

To your immediate question:

The wiki page for yaourt (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Yaourt) tells you that it is a wrapper for pacman.

Hence, all the commands you would use for pacman (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman) will work with yaourt.

Including those for removing packages. (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman#Removing_Packages)

stonecoldjha

February 6th, 2009, 02:22 PM

i have referred to it,but it doesn’t tell as to how i can remove my personal config files in my home directory.and i don’t see any of them in my home directory.

Rumor

February 6th, 2009, 04:01 PM

How are you looking for them? When you say you «don’t see any.» What method are you using to view them? Are you trying to list them in your terminal using ls -la? What dotfiles do you see in your terminal output? Are you trying to view them in a graphical file manager, and if so, which one? Again, what dotfiles does it show you?

Information like that may seem irrelevant, but it helps us understand what steps you are taking so we can help you along the path.

Alsaequal

Hi Guys
I would like to get an equalizer working on RuneAudio -I found this topic but I cant get it to install
it fails at 5 the makepkg stage, either it can’t find the file as testuser or wont run because of lack of privileges — I tried root access but that fails too

tutorial-install-alsa-equal-t3178.html#p11556

can anyone suggest any way forward or maybe even another solution ?

I’m a bit of a noob so I may have missed something obvious

still struggling with this — I get this error even though PKGBUILD does exist (I can see it in my CyberDuck SFTP prog)

[testuser@runeaudio2 ~]$ makepkg

anyone any ideas?

Hi Luk,

you have to change the active directory first.

For example your downloaded and extracted alsaeq is in:
/home/testuser/alsaequal-0.x.x……
then you have to use

Code: Select all: cd /home/testuser/alsaequal-0.x.x.....

to switch to that drectory.

you have to edit the PKGBUILD file and add «armv7h».

yep done that — at least I think I have done it right — I changed ….

pkgdesc=’Real-time adjustable equalizer plugin for ALSA sound server’
url=’http://www.thedigitalmachine.net/alsaequal.html’
license=(‘GPL2’)
arch=(‘i686’ ‘x86_64’)

pkgdesc=’Real-time adjustable equalizer plugin for ALSA sound server’
url=’http://www.thedigitalmachine.net/alsaequal.html’
license=(‘GPL2’)
arch=(‘arm7h’)

is that correct ?

Thanks for your help with this Frank

Ah there is a «v» that is not mentioned in the Tutorial — is it a typo in the tutorial ?

it says…
4. Now log in as your new user and extract the package you downloaded.
Edit the PKGBUILD and change the arch= to arch=(‘arm7h’)

Ill give it another go and report back

Just to report back — after much fiddling about I got something that looked like an equaliser displayed in Terminal — I could move the bars up and down but it didn’t alter the sound at all
I figured that it maybe was not applying the equalization to the DAC output and tried to fix it by altering the value where it says

pcm.plugequal {
type equal;
slave.pcm «plughw:1,0»; #adjust to match your alsa device you want equalized
}

but this has just broken the system completely and I’m not able to recover it

hey ho I have had fun fiddling and maybe learned some stuff but to be honest the guide has some errors and assumes a level of knowledge that I don’t possess

would be really great to see an equaliser built into Runeaudio — hope the devs have not given up on the idea
